From the episode

JJ McCarthy played four snaps and every single time he came in, it was some type of a jet sweep action slash zone read...they look, they look so stupid...This goes back to, I think some coaching malpractice from the giants.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

McCarthy's four snaps were all failed jet sweeps; Harmon calls it coaching malpractice.

JJ McCarthy played only four snaps, all of which were jet sweep and zone read plays designed for him; all four plays failed and looked ineffective. Harmon characterizes this as 'coaching malpractice' from the Giants, noting one sequence where McCarthy's snap led to a delay-of-game penalty that set up a third-and-nine situation.
