Please. WAY too predictable of a play caller and the decision to run 2 running plays to try and pick up 1 yard inside the red zone on 3rd and 4th down yesterday and neither of those carries going to Lynch was beyond idiotic. And we’re used to that in Seattle. He had some moments of great play calling, but those moments were few and far between. Happy for him and the opportunity to be a HC, sure. But I don’t get it.

Why? Because the offense was completely inept. He’s a conservative, predictable play caller. When he did get ‘creative’ it was like a 3rd and 9 and SURPRISE a running play is called that doesn’t get the first down. As a Vikings fan, go ahead and have this guy, but getting rid of Lovie Smith for these bums is absolutely insane. They screwed up and clearly had no plan b. If I’m their front office I’m calling up Brian Billick, Jon Gruden, Jay Gruden, or Bill Cowher, who I think would be the perfect fit for the Bears.

We’d like him for at least one more year.

Darrell Bevell. A month long odyssey of coaching interviews and you come up with Darrell Bevell.

Do they honestly believe Russell Wilson is as good as he is because he was tutored by the same OC who was completely unable to turn Tavaris Jackson into a passable version of an NFL Qb?

Will say that he did do a good job in adapting from a Flynn-centric offense that was planned all summer, to a different look with Wilson.

Also, gets credit for not holding back the playbook from Wilson too long when they realized the talent they had in Wilson.

But if that and an ok record in MIN gets you a head coach, well…good for him.

The run game which we did about 55 % of the time was from Cables o-line and schemes. I hated seeing 3 down and 1 yard with an empty backfield. Not to mention instead of using Lynch (who is a solid pass blocker) to chip instead he was spread out wide where defenses wouldn’t have to account for him. There were moments where Bevell shined, and everything he called was hitting for a month. But far too inconsistent. If he stays at least he is better than the years before watching Bates and Gregg Knapp’s train wrecks.

He’s very slow on the uptake, which is why it took him the entire first half yesterday for it to click with him that his game plan to pound Lynch up the middle wasn’t going anywhere, but that every single pass play resulted in a catch and usually for decent yardage.

He is the one most responsible for Seattle’s elimination from the playoffs. Also the one who thought Tavaris Jackson was a diamond in the rough who got a raw deal. I’d rather have Wilson calling plays than Bevell. At least Russell does his homework.

The other guy needs to stay where he’s at. You can’t compare Cutler and Wilson. Totally different styles and a huge difference in the O line.

Reports are Bevell, Arians and Tresman are final candidates.

If it is not Trestman – god help us.

he also wears slip-ons just to avoid potential problems with laces.
