I’m saying the purpose wasn’t to put it on tape. It has the potential to go a long way. As Rosie said it was a thing of beauty. Your first playoff game in 6 years isn’t when you put things on tape. The potential doesn’t outweigh the reward. Again, we got a measly three yards with it. Now, the Eagles will have that play in their meetings to think about. Football is a chess match, you have to outmaneuver and attack your opposition in all angles. Kruunch I have no issue with your take on it as far as risk, I’m only rejecting the why behind it.

This shows other DCs that....damn the NYGs can execute a difficult play. And the balls to actually do it

Parcells was a very conservative coach but often in the playoffs he would pull out a trick play be it a flea flicker or fake punt.

I agree. I said I liked the play call. I guess the last 10 years still has me thinking the worst. I think we score with that play or not. That play was much more riskier. they never had the QB or coaches to pull that play off. They never would even attempt that. I loved Eli but he was not executing that play. Jones is a superior athlete compared to Eli. Speaking of athleticism I heard a cool story this morning that I never heard before. Rex Ryan said he spoke to Jay Bilas about DJ. DJ played on Jay Bilas AAU basketball team that had 2 NBA players on it. Jay said they would put DJ on the other teams best player.

After this play I thought I was going to see Jones squatting down and drawing plays on his hands.

Jones is a phenomenal athlete, probably ranks as one of the best we;ve ever had!!! We'll see if he'll become a better all around QB, but his athletic skill set is very impressive for sure. yes...his game will continue to be refined. He has the ability to be a consistent top 10 or better QB if yesterday was an indicator, rather than an anomoly, and I think it is, he will get there pretty soon!!
