The Nate Sudfeld experiment in the final quarter of Sunday’s Washington-Philadelphia game left a bad taste with everyone.
Doug Pederson didn’t go for a field goal when he could have tied the game and then inserted a third-string quarterback under the pretense of getting Sudfeld some “deserved” reps.
The problem was the NFC East title hung in the balance and Sudfeld was totally outmatched.
Washington won and the New York Giants were out due to some questionable coaching.
Giants coach Joe Judge addressed the issue Monday and made it clear he would never take that approach to any NFL game.
Oh, and he never mentioned the Philadelphia Eagles or their coach.
Joe Judge talks about the sacrifice it took to make this season happen:
"To disrespect the game by going out there & not competing for 60 minutes to doing everything you can to help those players win – we will never do that as long as I'm the head coach of the New York Giants." pic.twitter.com/TXMZOumjZh

Judge will get two cracks at Pederson and the Eagles in 2021 to settle the issue on the field.
