The first dream he recounts for his wife at the end of the film goes something like this: "Anyway, first one I don't remember too well but it was about meeting [my father] in town somewhere, he's gonna give me some money. I think I lost it." This sounds eerily like the proposed plan that he had for meeting Llewelyn Moss at the motel in El Paso, Texas. Further evidence comes from the chat Sheriff Bell has with his uncle about how his grandfather died -- his grandfather was shot on his own front porch by a gang. This mirrors how Llewelyn Moss was found dead at the motel.

This mirrors how Llewelyn Moss was found dead at the motel. Sheriff Bell has a distant take on events throughout the film. He never once meets the protagonist or the antagonist. He is constantly several steps behind the action. All these serve to reinforce the notion that he's only viewing events, not actively participating in them. * That... makes a good bit of sense. Chigurh certainly is nightmare fuel. * Also, the entire film (and Sheriff Bell) has a weird dream-like detatchment to it... This theory is good. * I really like this theory. The fact that Chigurh is a clear metaphor for the growing violence that Bell fears makes this perfect.
