...and you don’t have leadership on the field, I guess we get the kind of football we saw in the second half of the Eagles game.
But, still, it is hard to fathom under any circumstances why you let Zach Ertz waltz into the end zone uncovered for a playground pitch and catch.
In overtime!
There are just no words to fully describe such incompetence.
But there is clarity on one front: If Mara lets this coaching staff anywhere near the Giants locker room in 2020, then he’s playing the Big Short
This HC is a failure is every capacity.
Shurmur does a shit ton of things wrong and you're mad about this? Don't think there was over a minute left. Pretty sure it was around 45 seconds. Even with a touchback they'd get the ball at the 20 with maybe 40 seconds. You think the Giants are going 45-50 yards in 40 seconds?

was another example of why he needs to go. With over a min 4th and two at the 50 he lets the clock run down to 20 seconds before realizing the Eagles where never going for it. Hell I wanted the Eagles to try and go for it so we would gt the ball at the 50.

But, it screams of awareness and knowing what to do. I don't care about the what if that or this, the fact is once the clock went that low, why even bother calling the timeout? He was scared to do it at 45 seconds and it shows in how the team is. They are afraid to do things or we do things that actually seem desperate (flea flicker at a horrible time)because we truly believe we can't straight up win.
When you lose to other shit teams- the Eagles lost to the Dolphins who have been trying to get a top 3 draft pick, you are more than lacking talent, you are lacking leadership and quality decision making.
