That's the exact opposite of what happened. He privately, so he thought, blamed others for his actions (intentional or not).
And again, my biggest issue:
Directly after game: I looked up, saw too late, braced for impact and accidentally hit the linesman.
Four days later: I don't recall the incident in question.
The fact that his sudden loss of memory was while being questioned by the experts who were going to throw anything at the wall hoping something stuck was convenient.
If it was an accident, and Wideman just stuck to it being an accident, my tune would be completely different. I think it's quite apparent he said what the experts 'wanted' to hear in order to give them the most ammunition.
The funny thing is, anyone arguing it was an accident is now implicitly calling Wideman a liar as not even he, apparently, knows what was going through his head at the time.
