Seahawks OC Darrell Bevell calls out Ricardo Lockette for effort in final minute

Seattle Seahawks offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell deflected blame onto wide receiver Ricardo Lockette after New England Patriots cornerback Malcolm Butler ended the Seahawks' final drive in Super Bowl XLIX.

Butler intercepted Russell Wilson with 20 seconds remaining, clinching the Patriots' 28-24 victory over the Seahawks in Super Bowl XLIX.

Wilson targeted Ricardo Lockette, but the Seahawks' wide receiver was pushed off the ball by Butler in the end zone.

"We could have done a better job staying strong on the ball," Bevell said to reporters post-game about the Seahawks' final offensive play.

Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll and Wilson both accepted responsibility for the loss, so it's somewhat puzzling to see the team's offensive coordinator evade fault for the game's most critical play.
