The problem is that fans don't judge a call on how good it was. Instead they judge it on if it worked or not. If that play had worked then it would be cited as proof of his ability to "think outside the box".
If a coach makes the usual call and it fails then he was "too predictable".
If a coach makes an unusual call and it fails then he was stupid for not doing "what every high school coach would have done".
And if a play works then it doesn't matter if it was a stupid call or not.
