STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

McCarthy's failed RPO late in game led to punt, allowing Commanders' game-winning drive.

McCarthy struggled in the Giants' loss to the Commanders, with John Harbaugh saying 'I thought he played very well' despite poor execution. The source criticizes the Giants' play-calling: with third-and-3 late in the game, rather than have McCarthy pass to get the first down and seal the win, the Giants dialed up an RPO that the source notes 'have not yet worked even once.' McCarthy lost yards on the play, leading to a punt from the Washington 39, and the Commanders scored the winning touchdown on the ensuing drive.
