I have seen the 2014 Seahawks section modified 6 times since yesterday.
This morning it said that Bevell blamed Lockette for not trying hard enough.
That's what I thought, too. But, New England had their goal line defense in place (not as good pass protection) AND they had gotten to Lynch easy enough when the defensive line got a good push. Seattle didn't have time to swap out their offensive line so they were playing with a smaller, more mobile line. They were basically set up for a pass against a defense that was set up against the run. Running with Lynch, if he didn't get in, would have made getting another play off successfully quite difficult. They obviously made the call to run. Russel Wilson had the ability to audible to a run but chose not to. A foot more clearance and that would have been a touchdown catch. Sure, Lynch is almost unstoppable... almost... New England got him behind the line at least once and on THIS play, they KNEW the ball was going to him. He would have had a really tough time getting anywhere. Man, this "Monday night quarterback" thing is easy.Come on, 1 yard, hand the ball to Marshawn Lynch, and let Beast Mode carry the defensive line into the end zone. and walk off the Lombardi Trophy. It was second and 1 with 1 time out and 26 seconds left. Pete Carroll is going to regret this one for a long time.
the Hawks had 1 timeout left .... if they had of run Lynch he either would have scored or been stopped short .... if stopped short, they could have used that timeout so as to take their time and run whatever they felt was their best play .... also if stopped and they threw the ball with the same result, I don't believe there would be anywhere near as much controversy
