Sorry Bill....I can't back you on this one....
You gave me 5 Super Bowl victories, and I thank you for each one, but what you did to Malcolm Butler on Sunday was not fair to him...or the team...or the fans....
I don't know what he did...missed the team flight out to Minnesota?....leaked the info that lead to Seth Wickersham's story about the infighting between Bill, Tom and Robert?....whatever it was....deal with it during the week....torture him at practice...but have him ready to go for the game....
A lot of other guys who have towed the line for you all year were trying to win a ring...some for the first time...and while Butler hasn't played great this year and played poorly in the AFC title game, he is a marked improvement over Eric Rowe and company...and was your best bet at the second corner spot....
You are the greatest coach this game has ever known, but you out-coached yourself this time....and you won the battle, but lost the war....we will all have to live with that one.
