Well... I already called this out and Baldwin is completely correct about Bevell. Bevell should've kept his mouth shut about Lockette not being more physical and bumping Butler off the route. HE WOULD'VE BEEN FLAGGED FOR OFFENSIVE PI.
That was a lose-lose situation for Lockette and a lose-lose situation for Wilson. Bevell made the call.... PC trusted Bevell to make a good call. Bevell made an absolutely boneheaded retard call... END OF STORY!!!
PC fell on the sword and took the hit for okaying the call without throwing Bevell, Wilson or Lockette under the Bus. Wilson fell on the sword and took the hit for making the throw without throwing Bevell, PC or Lockette under the bus. Bevell, the POS most responsible for that retarded call, tries to make excuses for his call, doesn't hold himself accountable at all for making the most retarded call ever, and throws Lockette under the bus. HEY THOUGH... He's the real team guy here... Not Baldwin. I think maybe it's time for some fans to stop getting half-baked while they try sticking their tongues up Bevell's crack and start looking at reality.
Also... Passing in that situation was not the boneheaded part of the call.
1. Having an empty backfield, taking away the threat of the run and allowing the defense to key on the pass, regardless of their personnel, was the boneheaded part of the call.
2. Calling slants against a goal-line defense that has inside leverage in coverage and forces the QB to make a quick throw without reading the shift in coverage after the ball is snapped was the boneheaded part of the call.
3. Not throwing the ball to outs, the corner or the backside of the endzone away from the heart of a goal-line defense where it would go out of bounds if the receiver didn't catch it was the boneheaded part of the call.
WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!
