No, Micah, wrong again. Jayden Daniels didn't cost Dan Quinn his job. DAN QUINN DID. Strictly his responsibility to intervene, say no, we're not running another play, we're going to spike it and kick it now. QB should've known better. But HEAD COACH is most to blame.
@1067theFan@JPFinlayNBCS If the Coach goes “Hey guys let’s go out here and clock it, FG unit go!” We are all talking about how well he played coming off the elbow injury!
Mistake no 1: taking a long time to get the play in. If the desire is to run another play and perhaps pick up a few more yards then get to the line around 30 seconds when there are no more TO.
Mistake no 2: the call. From under center and play action with downfield routes. One Off coach from another team wondered “if just throwing it away, do from gun.” Also: his foot was stepped on again (second time in the game). The easy call: spike it, kick the FG.
Mistake no 3: not throwing it away. Then the lax effort by all to get reset. All confusing.
Mishandled at each step.
Brutal.
@Doctor6866@FTFonFS1@getnickwright The fact of the matter is that last play should have never been called. The White run finished at the 23yd line. From there it should have been a spike and fg!! That’s on coaching!!!
@Doctor6866@FTFonFS1@getnickwright He let the clock run down?! Or did the coaching staff let it run down and decide to run a pass play with 3 TE’s and on in motion !!! I guess JD called that play? None of the players reacted with urgency even the receivers 10-15 yds down field were walking back!
@YahooFantasyJH This was completely on coaching. In that situation with no timeouts the call easily should have been to line snap it before the play clock expires spike it and bring out the FG unit. Not running another pass play with no timeouts outs!!! That simple
The biggest tell on how bungled the Commanders' final 50 seconds of OT was: Washington called a play-action pass play to gain more yards? Why call a play if you want Jayden Daniels to just throw the ball out of bounds?
Rod in Columbia!
Let me buy you a beer please!
This call sums up EVERYTHING I tweeted about!
You are 💯% correct on everything!
Not on Jayden!
Why run a play like the Giants did and risk what happened?
KICK the damn FG!
Why did Blough have no answers for a zero blitz?
Rachaad White was tackled at the Giants 24 yard line with 50 seconds left.
50. Seconds.
The next play ended the game.
You had a full 35 seconds to tell Jayden Daniels ANYTHING productive.
You didn't.
Inexcusable. Shocking. This falls on Dan Quinn.
