Exactly. I just say some tweets about his comments, didn't see his interview. No matter what his responsibility was on that play, it's 100% completely irrelevant. The goal of an onside kick is for someone, ANYONE, to catch the f'n ball. He is a professional paid to catch balls. When in a position to catch a ball, he did not catch the damn ball. That's not Slocum, McCarthy, or anyone else.

Make it, he's the hero and would get praised for it.
But he messed up, and that is what people will remember.
He will recover from it.hopefully if he ever gets a chance to save a big game he will come through.
There were too many screw ups on the whole team that cost this shot at a SB championship.
This one play could have erased them.

Feel bad for him that it had to end this way, but I respect him for manning up on his mistake.

It was right in his hands.
No excuse not to make the catch.
