How are fossils in any way confusing? If trillions of animals lived and died, slowly evolving over billions of years, wouldn't there be millions upon millions of intermediate fossil forms?

Given how specific the circumstances required for fossilization, no.

Oh, I see. Those circumstances only come to pass when no evolution happens to be occuring.

Okay, many intermediate fossils probably didn't fossilize because the circumstances weren't right, BUT, wouldn't you think there would be AT LEAST ONE or two that were in the right circumstances for fossilizing?
