Things were so bad with Jeff George that he not only lost his starting job after this game, he was straight up cut. This game was on a Monday, George was cut on Wednesday. Marty Schottenheimer knew after this that it wasn't gonna work, and just ripped off the band-aid. Marty didn't sign George, he inherited him. George being there was purely due to Dan Snyder, who fell in love with the arm.
