Former NFL quarterback says Darrell Bevell often called the ?perfect play?.
Players that have worked under Darrell Bevell had nice things to say about the Lions? new offensive coordinator.

It?s now been over 24 hours since the Detroit Lions named former Seahawks offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell as their next play-caller on offense. In the mad scramble for information, we asked our friends at Seahawks blog Field Gulls what they think, we?ve investigated Bevell based on his quotes from the past 10 years, and we?ve looked at his statistics and made our own analysis.

Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press took things one step further by talking to some former NFL players that played under Bevell. Speaking to quarterbacks Sage Rosenfels (worked under Bevell in 2009 with the Vikings) and Tarvaris Jackson (2006-10 with the Vikings; 2011, 2013-15 with the Seahawks), Birkett got a unique look at the Lions? new offensive coordinator by some of the players that know him most.

?He?s going to be very quarterback friendly,? Jackson said. ?Whatever you?re comfortable with, he?s going to make sure you get.?

That?s sure to be good news for Matthew Stafford, who just lost Jim Bob Cooter?a coach Stafford has constantly backed and trusted.

But while we?ve heard plenty about Bevell?s scheme and affinity to run, we?ve heard very little about his ability to call plays... well, except for that one play. However, Rosenfels remembers Bevell often coming up with the exact right call for the situation.

|I felt like when Bevell was calling plays that year and it would come through my headset, I was like, ?Oh, that?s the perfect call,?? Rosenfels said. |I remember many, many times that year thinking that, that he found that play on his call sheet and it jumped out at me that it was sort of the perfect play to call in that situation.?
