From the episode

I don't get why Najee Harris is playing on third and two in the most important play of the game for the Giants instead of Scadaboo... Najee, who was, like, on his couch a couple weeks ago... they had him out there in garbage time when they're down, like, 21 points.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Harris misused on goal line over Scadaboo; role inconsistency suggests limited upside.

Najee Harris was inexplicably used on third-and-two in a critical goal-line situation instead of Cam Scadaboo, which the source found infuriating and unforgivable. Harris was also played in garbage time when the Giants were down 21 points, suggesting inconsistent usage patterns. The source criticizes old coaches for stubbornly adhering to outdated role designations like goal-line guy or red zone package guy instead of simply putting their best players on the field. Harris, who was on his couch a couple weeks ago, should not be getting these high-leverage opportunities over Scadaboo.
