Head Coach Candidate: Darrell Bevell


LA Grant

Recommended Posts

 

OMG! This is what a ton of people of people were saying when you were defending Marrone and Hackett!!!

And I'm really warming up to Bevell. He gets the most out of his talent. Plus, it would be nice to have a coach who has won a SB instead of a Pinstripe Bowl.

Through their first 8 games, EJ and Wilson had very similar stats.

The idea that Wilson was a stud right away is a complete myth. He leaned on a great defense and running game. Bevell did a great job of bringing him along and when Wilson got more comfortable, they opened things up for him.

IMO, he is the closest to a slam dunk candidate as there is available. He would be a perfect fit for our current situation.

 

His credits:

 

Discovered and developed Russell Wilson, when no one else in the NFL was considering him.

Continued to innovate on offense after defenses started figuring out what they were doing.

Former QB, has a speciality in developing scrambling strong-armed QBs

Was the OC in Minnesota and helped Favre to his big year there, and one of the best years of Favre's career

 

PFT reports that the Bills have requested permission to interview him. I think he makes way more sense than anyone else they're looking at. He's an offensive specialist who has shown the ability to make something out of nothing. Unlike Gase or McDaniels, he isn't leaning on a HOF quarterback. Unlike Reich, he has a proven track record of success.

 

Bevell/Schwartz/Whaley is a power trio that I would have a lot of faith in.

And somehow he managed to miss a slam dunk.

Truth be told Bevelle called a nice game until that point ...got the most out of their talent and kept pats honest with well timed deep balls

 

I thought he had one bad play call late in the 3rd...first they get a fg, then pats 3 and out....they get ball and on 1st get a 25 yard gain, then a quick 5 yard pass, then lynch for 3 and its 3rd and 2 on the pats 47 and then try a long pass down the sideline to kearse and miss. I really thought it should have been a high percentage play right at the chains and keep that drive going.

I actually didn't like his playcalling at all. A lot of run-run-pass. They started so stagnantly and conservatively. but for that early bizarre brady pick, the Patriots could have blown the Seahawks out.

 

They got back in the game with some deep balls-- but not sure that is much of a gameplan.

nothing wrong with that call - other than it not being a Lynch run, as many - in hindsight - believe should have been the call ..

Browner makes the play by keeping Kearse from getting depth to keep Butler from jumping the route.. and if Lockette was 'stronger to the ball' - that's 6.

one of many reasons i can't stand watching games called by Collingsworth.

Palmyra is the Mecca of the Mormon religion.

 

Twenty miles from St. John Fisher.

I lived in Salt Lake City for several months back in the late '70's. up by the "U" (400S.-200E. for those who might know the area)

We referred to the Mormon Temple as "Disneyland" (for obvious reasons) and carried out random 'Gold Plate" searches under couch cushions, and whatnot.

Most o you probably wouldn't get the joke, so read the Book of Mormon sometime. It's a real trip.
