New York Giants ruthlessly trolled on Twitter after bizarre 3rd-down play call
New York Giants coach Joe Judge has to be feeling the heat after amassing a 4-12 record entering the final week of the regular season.
MetLife Stadium was only about a quarter full for the season finale against the Washington Football Team, and those fans were treated to a less-than-ideal play call.
As you can see below, the Giants faced a 3rd-and-9 from deep in their own territory. Instead of running a real play, the Giants dialed up a QB sneak for Jake Fromm:
QB sneak on 3rd & 9 is peak Giants

Obviously, it didn’t even come close to working, and fans had plenty to say about it:

Might as well ask for a rolling clock if you make this play call. https://t.co/veraPx9lQM

You know what’s wild about this? Judge wouldn’t ever call this if we was on the opposing team goal line LMAO https://t.co/lWj6jHObvB

Will Judge survive this disaster of a season? We’ll find out by tomorrow, most likely.
