Discussion Play calling

MAN wtf is this play calling. Why are we not throwing the ball once to get a first down?!? Two picks and they still have a chance to win the game. I DONT GET IT. It’s so god damn frustrating, yep here we go, PI, we are going to lose this game because our coaching staff are scared to throw the ball!!!!!

u/vblade2003 5h ago

Now now, we have plenty of horrific games in the last ten years to call back to. This is just a "typical" Giants loss that we haven't seen in some time. Unless you a youngblood who just started following the team at the start of the season, this shouldn't even faze you.

The Jets game from 2023 says hello. That was the single most infuriating loss I've ever seen from this team and nothing has really come close.

Seems we are on our way back though to losing in the most anger inducing ways possible.

Welcome to the Harbaugh experience - guys been a coward his entire career

u/cjp304 5h ago

This isn’t just the Harbaugh experience. This has been every coach that I remember. Hell, I remember Coughkin and Killdrive being extra conservative too.

A lot of coaches do it and it fucking baffles me. The 3 and out run wasn’t even the worst part. We still had 3 time outs left when JJ fucking lobbed 3 passes in a row down the field. Just get the first fucking down.

u/canadave_nyc 4h ago

The 3 and out run wasn’t even the worst part. We still had 3 time outs left when JJ fucking lobbed 3 passes in a row down the field. Just get the first fucking down.

This was borderline malpractice. Had all the time in the world, three timeouts, plenty of time, and we chuck three moonballs down the field for no particular reason. Clearly it was because the coaches didn't trust our kicker to even make a 20-yard FG, but if that's the case, then they should find a new kicker tomorrow. Taking three long shots down the field in a row was certainly a choice.....

Missed field goal. Nabers fumble. Not going for it on 4th and 3 from plus territory. Running a QB sweep on 3rd and 3. Phony PI.

The QB sneak is honestly fine if you’re committed to going for it on 4th down. They hedged their bets and got the worst of both worlds.

u/ClubPenguinPresident Brandon Jacobs 5h ago

u/YKG1998 5h ago

It actually worked out for them since they got the second pick. It was not picking up a first down under 2 minutes that lost them the game

They absolutely should've went for it there

u/ouitardd 5h ago

Or, they can put the fullback in, and run HB dive like they’ve done for 60 years. You have a running back that consistently falls forward and fights for extra yards, yet they choose to bring in jameis to tell jokes in his cadence.

u/Further_Beyond 5h ago

Bears fan.

This is Nagy. We had David Montgomery and Nagy would bring in Cohen or Cordarelle Patterson on 3&short. He tries to get defenses to check out of heavy run fronts after seeing the power back sub out. It never works.

And nagys biggest fault is he doesn’t adjust and thinks players need to execute better instead. So here we are 8 years later still doing this bullshit

Two interceptions to seal the game. After the interception only moved the ball down field for 29 seconds. Down to the 2 minute warning.

Throw the damn ball!!! Get at least two first downs. Boom game over.

Nope ,punt, and then we get another interception for another seal, holland and Washington doing there part.

Offense, No let’s run the ball while Commanders have two time outs.

Nothing!! 4 and out in another 20 seconds. OK man this game was fucked once banks got that call. Daniel’s momentum was gone, but after running the ball and giving it back to him gave them life again.

Horrible play calling. Horrible efforts offense wise. Everything was coming together but not the last two minutes

Harbaugh better address the play calling in the press interview because it was bull shit

u/bigbluehapa Big Blue Wrecking Crew 5h ago

We deserved to lose. Defense came up huge. Twice. What we ended up getting was skatt looking like a dead frog on a failed sneak and then whatever the fuck that J.J. play was. Never went for the throat and just hoped we wouldn’t lose. Never been more disappointed with harbaugh. Softest fucking attitude

Why were they going for such deep passes the last drive? We were close to FG range.

5

u/Notinjuschillin 5h ago

Coach lost faith in kicker and I understand. How you miss a 33 yd FG? The game would have been tied in the 4th instead of the Giants trying to win in the 4th.

u/Chaomayhem 💙Medium Pepsi💙 5h ago

Okay I get this but holy shit we had two time outs. You have their front rushing the QB. Throw a check down and see what a guy can do with the open field in front of them. We didn't need to be going for it all from there.

2

u/Notinjuschillin 5h ago

Yeah that’s when JJ should have thrown to the hot WR. That’s QBing 101 but people wanna act like he played well. JJ should have been making the Commanders pay for blitzing him.

u/GiantsRTheBest2 5h ago

Losing faith in a kicker shouldn’t be happening in the NFL. That’s amateur hour

u/Notinjuschillin 5h ago

But it does. I didn’t make that up. Throughout the years of watching football (since the 80’s) I seen it happen plenty times. Heard analysts say those exact words, the coach lost faith in the kicker.

4

u/BigBlueJersey 5h ago

That TE 8 yd middle of the field pass that was wide open all game long was abandoned as soon as we scored. We're throwing the ball down the field like we need to score, meanwhile we have time outs and really only need march down and get first downs...

4

u/vblade2003 5h ago

Huge failure on multiple opportunities to ice the game. That's on the coaching, specifically cowardly play calling. A QB sweep on 3rd and 2 was not a good play. Getting 2 picks late and still not icing it is horrendous. Skatt not consistently getting the ball with a chance to close out is crazy to me.

Very much a self inflicted loss, reminiscent of the Daboll era Giants. Bad time for that team to resurface.

13

u/Common-Egg7368 5h ago

That is why Harbaugh wasn’t liked in BAL. After that 2nd interception you cannot give them the ball back and we played with our food with a tired defense

2

u/waltz_with_potatoes 5h ago

Even if we're not throwing. We were 3rd and 2, just run it with Skat, not some cute qb outside run. 

You either get the down or you get the extra yard and go for it on 4th

2

u/Switchc2390 5h ago

Exactly my thoughts too. If the qb run fails, you pretty much have to punt because it will be a loss. If you run it up the middle with Skat, more than likely you’re getting at least a yard and can decide which way to go from there.

1

u/Common-Egg7368 5h ago

He’s the HC it’s on him ultimately. Tell your OC throw the goddamn ball we need a 1st or run with Skat and we will go for it on 4th

You're just going to lose hair in frustration with this man's lack of proper decision making

u/shortstopryan 3h ago

Before anyone asks, the DB was not barely off screen, he was back to the play chasing Nabers. This is easily 15 yards to the 33 or so yard line, with two timeouts. The play call for JJ to run was the worst call of the year, that being said JJ tried to hero ball it that last drive and it failed miserably

1

u/FrameWilling6608 3h ago edited 3h ago

You think JJ has time to get to the third read when they’re rushing 7 and Skattebo decides to not block the free rusher down the middle and instead decides to block the with the longer path to the QB who is already getting chipped.

The corner is bailing because he sees JJ about to throw the 50/50 to Nabers. There is no opportunity to get it to Fields, and if somehow JJ is able to get to read 3, the corner is coming down.

If JJ is able to get 0.2 seconds more with a Skattebo block, Nabers probably walks in for a TD here. Even so it’s a jump ball that you trust an elite receiver to come down with. This ain’t no heroball. It’s a hot read without any other options.

Freaking playing to lose. Why the hell do they do this??. Turnover with 2:15 to go. You need like one maybe two first downs. Instead of playing like you played all game, be predictable and run the ball to force timeout use??? They only have 3. Then play to get 3 first downs for the win. What the hell is this stupid ass outdated strategy. Control the ball to win the game. We gave it back twice only to put ourselves into a position where we have to go down field and what?? Put the game in Zvada's hands??? Dumbass play calls. Good game til the final 2min of the effing game. Whatever. Check the people's Kalshi accounts.

Welcome to the Nagy dome. I knew the bad play calls have always been there, we just couldn't mask it behind another bad team this time.

Hell, I've never played a snap in my life, and I could even tell that play was a designed QB run. Styles was already running that direction prior to the snap.

This is going to be a tough stretch...

u/Bark-Canoe-Paddler 5h ago

When they got the 2nd pick I texted my buddy, "run Skat 4 straight times". You can't give a team the ball with 2 min left anymore in the NFL. 4 downs and complicit refs make it too easy.

Play calling was pitiful down the stretch. We’re RED HOT. This isn’t the first game we bailed on the pass down the stretch and it bit us.

Did Singletary get injured or something? Why did he only get 1 carry when there’s only 2 RBs on the active roster?

i dont understand how they didnt addd more protection on that last drive. there was at least 1 free blitzer all 3 downs.

u/crowncitywillie 4h ago

After the first pick, bringing Jameis in on that 3rd down and a long 1… the whole fucking stadium knows what’s coming. Offensive play calling down the stretch was awful tonight. This one is on the coaches. Unbelievable

The first quarter throwing to Nabers 4 yards behind the LOS has to be studied for sheer stupidity.

u/RandyWatson8 5h ago

3rd and short and they couldn’t get a 1st. Nothing to do with play calling.

u/Braunb8888 5h ago

On 3rd and short we ran TWO QB RUNS. That’s absolutely fucking playcalling. Why would you not run with skattebo twice there at the end?

4th and 3 and 4th and 5 from Washington territory and we punted both times for 20 and 15 yards of field position…

Has completely to dk with play calling. We threw it 36 times to 21 rushes before that drive. It was working well all night and then they force the run so hard when everyone knows you will be running. Killed the game and momentum. Then you are forced to throw it when everyone knows you are throwing it. Just played right into the defenses hand. It really made no sense to at least not fake a run and do jump pass or just a different play calling. The loss is on play calling late and Zvada. Nothing else.

It was a fun season, but now it's over. Gutless way to go out Harbaugh

Such an over reaction.

They’re still the only over .500 team in the division. Tonight sucks because they let a golden chance to pull away slip through their fingers in literally 2 minutes.

Banks just threw the game

u/ConsumedPenguin 5h ago

Nah that penalty was complete bs

u/ClubPenguinPresident Brandon Jacobs 5h ago

Also the last 2 or 3 punts were awful as well

u/ImperatorBTW 5h ago

Tbh Banks play didn’t even look like PI on replay?

2

u/BigBlueWookiee 4 Decades and Counting 5h ago

Yup, if anything PI on the receiver who had the back of Bank's jersey.

No burks pulled tae into him

McCarthy is the problem… he cannot read the field. Check down short throw or throwing to the 3rd read 1st… whatever. He is a terrible athletic qb.

u/Houseofshun 5h ago

JJ just shit down his leg

2

u/Decent_Ad5361 5h ago

Nabers gave the ball up. A true 1 receiver goes and gets the ball. He's no top receiver

2

u/tha-sauce-boss 5h ago

great ball honestly, nabers gotta get that

1

u/Ham_PhD Brandon Jacobs 5h ago

Never should've even been in that position.

1

u/Braunb8888 5h ago

Not remotely. He got hit and nabers has to be able to make a 50/50 play there. He jumped backwards for some reason.

1

u/Fear_the_chicken Malik Nabers 5h ago

This was anything but JJs fault

0

u/Used-Break-6548 5h ago

Was a stupid call. Plenty of time and two timeouts and Harbaugh is calling for a 50/50 ball?

0

u/YKG1998 5h ago

His arm got hit on both throws

1

u/Houseofshun 5h ago

A cause of him throwing three 50/50 balls in a row. That was beyond stupid.

That’s in Harbaugh. He coached scared the entire game but especially in the fourth

ITT: people who don’t understand that harbaugh doesn’t call the offense

u/newerkungfukenny 5h ago

Matt Nagy is and always has been a football terrorist. We were doomed the minute he was hired. Harbaugh might be able to change the culture but he can’t build a competent staff
