He did not "kill it" in Detroit.Ace_Rimmer":22490cly said:Lots of good input here. I think the consensus is that we just don’t know what would have happened because Cable sucked, and Bevell was handcuffed by him. I mean he killed it in Detroit, and obviously needs another shot at a head coaching gig. I for one will be following his progress very closely!
This though I suspect Sioux......er, Ace is trolling here. Just a reminder that when we needed Detroit to beat GB the last game of the regular season, he went away from the run game which had been effective all day and tried to hold a lead and then win the game with a 3rd string QB throwing.

Yeah I don't remember the specifics either but you're in the right neighborhood. I do remember a bunch of us here watching the 10 AM game rooting for Detroit because it helped the Hawks and the Lions snatching defeat from the jaws of victory in large part because Bev started having his 3rd string QB sling it around after the run game had been effective all game.olyfan63":3bixgn8o said:hawksfansinceday1":3bixgn8o said:This though I suspect Sioux......er, Ace is trolling here.

So then you're confirming that (Bevell) "he killed it" in Detroit, it's just that what he killed was...
... the Seahawks opportunity to have a home playoff game or have HFA if we had beaten SF on Monday night.
... by helping Detroit lose to Green Bay.
Or something like that. Forgive me for not memorizing all the tiebreakers and scenarios that were in play at that moment.

And outsmarting himself...
