Maybe the coach figures Evans was the only guy who knew the offense well enough to trot out there and he was simply offering encouragement for the players self esteem. Coach's have to do those things regardless of what a fan thinks. He shouldn't be criticized for it.

This is where I disagree, you don't have to say anything. I've coached (not at that level) I can give the player encouragement without stating it publicly. Everyone knows Evans has been below par, no reason to continue to praise him. He's done it more then once, sometimes it's best to just keep it tight lipped.
