He was 'inserted' to stop the bleeding.

But even Danny Tampon couldn't get it done.

YES it’s serious, first game vs division for and you CONCEDE with time left? You don’t try to score, go for two and then try an onside kick to preserve dignity?

No
Garbage time

no different than when Eli was put in for Warner late in the opening loss at Philly in 2004. Eli got destroyed on a sack and fumbled, but got up. Jones got in and fumbled. I have a sneaky suspicion this season will mirror 2004 in many ways.

No

Lol, so then Jones wasn’t in to compete, he was in to get a little training. Got it - garbage time next week Shurmur should sub in all the backups like in Pop Warner.

but it should have started at least one series sooner
You're obviously not a math major  
Mendenhall64 : 9/8/2019 7:47 pm : link
3 TDs with (3) 2-point conversions weren't enough to TIE when they put Jones in and you wonder why you're being asked if this is a serious question?
Garbage time only  
Mike from Ohio : 9/8/2019 7:48 pm : link
Offensive play calling and defensive talent were just not NFL level today. This was not Eli’s fault.

Dignity and a Sawbuck is worth $10.

1. It’s NFL, you don’t concede garbage time if you’re losing. You play hard til the final whistle. I can’t believe I need to argue this.
2. Given DJs draft position and heir-apparent status, it’s completely reasonable to think that this regime is ITCHING to move into the DanielJones era.

Agree, and excellent parallel!

Then why didn't you post this about Gallman being in the game to score the last touchdown instead of Barkley?

Because everyone knows Gallman is a regular fixture in the RB rotation, and gets touches every game.

So Gallman was in for "Trying to win effort for 'Dignity'" as opposed to the ROY starter and Jones was in for "Garbage time". Again, is this a serious question? If you don't grasp the criticism towards your thread starter, I don't know what to tell you.
did Tanney or lauletta play in garbage time last year?

Lol!! I don’t give a crap about message board “criticism”, but I’m glad I started bc of MattSGS’s post about Eli in 2004.
