Alex Bachman thought it was a joke when the Giants called two QB sneaks during the 2021 season.
Despite their 6-10 finish in 2020, the Giants were optimistic that Joe Judge's leadership would improve the 2021 season.
Such was not the case, as things completely fell apart for Judge, who was in his second season as the team’s head coach. The Giants won just four games that year, and the season ended on a weird note, starting with a lengthy rambling of Judge, who seemed to be pleading his case to Giants ownership via a public channel about why he should be retained for a third season.
But the weirdest occurrence of all was a decision Judge made that angered and stunned quite a number of people, who viewed it as his lack of faith in his roster to get a first down. Of course, we're referring to Judge calling two straight quarterback sneaks before halftime against the Washington Commanders in Week 18 despite being backed up near his own end zone.
That decision floored a number of people, who saw it as the Giants running up the white flag of defeat. And it might very well have been the final nail in Judge’s coffin, as he was fired after the season ended.I thought i was concussed when i heard this play call in the huddle… i came off on the sideline looking around.
