Weak 18: Giants Unbelievably Call QB Sneak on 3rd & 9
Certain moments crystallize the futility of football teams and their complete lack of direction. The Giants had several of those on Sunday, but one of them really stood out.
A meaningless game and staring down the barrel of 4-13 with a quarterback who is not your team’s future is usually a time when most coaches will open the playbook and play with reckless abandon.
Giants coach Joe Judge, however, went a different way.
Late in the first half, the Giants inexplicably ran quarterback sneaks on consecutive plays from inside their 5-yard line.
The Giants just QB sneaked on 2nd & 3rd down. This is unbelievably soft. pic.twitter.com/4ziBxYI55A

How Judge can leave the stadium while remaining head coach of the Giants is unfathomable, Twitter was not kind after Judge’s surrender.

I can’t stop watching this. What’s next for Joe Judge? Dragging the Super Bowl trophies from the bumper of his car? Streaking in a bodysuit? https://t.co/QEUKDOXCL2

John Mara reportedly thinks Joe Judge could be the next Bill Parcells or Bill Belichick. @ZachGelb hopes John Mara stops thinking that after the Giants ran a QB sneak on 3rd and 9.

The Giants seriously just ran a 3rd and 9 QB sneak. Not a draw. A sneak. Out of a de facto kneel formation.
The Giants have packed it in the last 2 weeks one year after Joe Judge criticize Doug Pederson for not giving 100% all the way to the end. Can’t make it up.

If it’s any consolation to Giants fans, and I’m sure it is, their season is over.
