What was the point of that 2 pt conversion disaster?

When you are the consistently sucky New York Giants, you don't run that kind of shit.....Just run a strong two point play...if you miss it....at least you tried....if you make it, it is business as usual.

This coaching staff and especially Daboll has no idea how they look to the NFL world.....Like complete idiots IMHO.

the play would have worked. They just needed to lean in and Nabers would have scored pretty easily.

I don't know if that's on the linemen (possibly) or Jones (probably), but it was execution not play design that was the disaster.

play I've ever seen.

There is no explanation to describe what happened on that play.

Snapped too early? Who cares? The OL is looking at the ball as it's being snapped. And NO ONE moves.

How do you explain that?

those guys out wide were asleep. People are saying they couldn't hear. But they were still frozen when the ball was in DJ's hand and the C/OL were out of their stance and blocking. And of course Highsmith knew the ball was snapped. Very odd and embarrassing for the coaching staff.

That looks like a play that nobody ever ran physically. Everyone was confused and looking. DJ just tossed it like nothing.

You haven't been watching football for long.

Execution was off from the snap.

Looked like a Big 12/CFL play

It was meant to confuse the defense but confused the offense instead

a lot, before doing anything complex. Literally that play was about that metaphor. You mean to tell me we don't have an effective normal 2pt play? I can think of a bunch... None of them look like that.

It is a very simple play, Jones looked, saw the defense was completely outflanked and snapped it and threw the ball. They had 5 guys out there to block two. The coach and Qb were not at fault. You are taught to run out quickly and get set because you want to start the play before the defense adjusts and gets set. The guys on the outside ruined a perfectly good play call by not being ready. That one is on them.

That play was an Open Gate. And, the horse had already left the pasture.

so I have to believe he did what was expected and the OL players standing around like they were in a grocery store checkout were the ones that fucked up.

ridiculous Colts trick play attempt vs the Patriots.

Yep. Last night’s 2-point conversion folly is going to replace this Colts formation as the NFL blooper reel highlight.

There is no benefit there. You’re down by 14. Go for 1 your down by 7, if you score again you can go for the win with the 2 pointer. You lose momentum there by missing the 2.

Daboll makes so many questionable calls each week.

To be fair the best coaches in the NFL do this every week

And they have the best teams to execute calls like this...
