the answer i was looking for is : because when you have the worst pass blocking line in the league you NEED to call quick hitters like bubble screens and such to keep the rush away. Its imperative to the gameplan

My issue with Bevell is it seems pretty certain they're gonna stick to running it as much as possible.  

Bevells run play % rank as playcaller:

2007: 2nd
2008: 5th
2009: 10th
2010: 10th
2011: 12th
2012: 1st
2013: 1st
2014: 2nd
2015: 4th
2016: 16h
2017: 20th

You can do quick vertical passes and move the ball. Bubble screens are different. They are essentially horizontal passes and they only work in moderation. You can't call them over and over. I remember watching a Seahawks game when he was OC, where he called 3 straight bubble screens and didn't get a first down. The first one was stuffed behind the line, the second one gained 3 or 4 yards and the third one was for no gain. It was the worst play calling I have ever seen.
