3:06. The "Epic in Miami" game from the '81-82 playoffs. One of the greatest games I ever watched on TV. The hook-and-lateral to end the first half brought the Dolphins to within 7 after they were down 24-0 at one point.
And the other way around: if that Wilson pass wasn't intercepted by Butler, the whole world would have regarded it as the greatest trick play ever: the Great Wizard Pete Carrol called a pass play when everyone was expecting a run play with Lynch... Sadly, for them, it didn't work :)
Man I hope we get another safety like Ed Reed one day. He played the position w more creativity and a higher IQ than anyone I’ve ever seen. He pulled stuff that most ppl wouldn’t even imagine trying in a video game, and somehow It seemed to work out spectacularly every single time. No other DB in history even thinks of pitching that ball backwards and he does It perfectly for a TD.
LOL the announcer for thw bengals trick play. Announcer #1: "Have you seen that before?" Announcer #2: "Not often." Announcer #1: "So you've seen that before?" Announcer #2: "Not that I can recall." 🤣😂 what?!
Pretty sure he didn't want to admit that he'd not seen it before in case there was a famous case he was missing, until the other commentator said they hadn't seen it before.
"Have you seen that before?" "Not often." "So you've seen that before?" "Uhhh, y... yes I have." "Wow! Great. I mean, it makes sense, right? Our paycheck depends on us being football experts, so obviously you must be able to draw on your decades of experience in watching football--that's why people listen to you. You clearly have seen everything." "Let's get back to the game." "All righty. But first, since this great trick play just happened, tell me--how many times have you seen it before?" "Once or twice." "Wait, is it once or is it twice?" "Probably once." "You don't remember if you have seen that play once or if you have seen it twice?" "The next play's about to start, look at the formation of the wide recei..." "See, if I had seen that play run twice, I'd remember both times. I wouldn't be confused, that's not something a football expert like us would forget. But anyway, ok, what was the one time you definitely remember?" "It was a long time ago, so it's probably irrelevant because of how much the game has changed since then. Take this game right now, this exciting game where new plays keep on happening for us to comment on." "Irrelevant? That sounds super memorable to me, the fact that it happened all those years ago and you still remember it to this day! Ok, great. The Bengals have called timeout. We'll keep it here so you can tell us about it. These are truly the moments when we earn our salary. Ok, regale us as the football expert you are."
Announcers are idiots. Before Kapernick took a knee, I'd watch with the TV muted so I didn't have to listen to their drivel. Once the NFL went woke-tard, they lost me.
In high school we were among the smallest schools in a big conference, but we won our share of games including many that would be called upsets. Our coach was clever and our team had quite a few smart players who could execute. (That, and the state 100 yard dash champion at tailback, who only needed a half step.). Anyway, our playbook was over half trick plays, and unusual sets, both on offense and defense. Included in our playbook was one from this video, 10 men would huddle, coach would be animated in talking to the 11th player (usually our sprint star) who would step onto the field at the last second and streak down the sideline. That play, along with many other tricks we played, have now been outlawed at the high school level. Our coaches had to meet with the refs before every game to tell them about all the trick plays so we wouldn’t just get a game full of inadvertent whistles. We were scouted heavily because everyone knew our reputation for tricks, but we had so many odd sets and trick plays to run off multiple sets that it was hard to know what we would do. It was a lot of fun, even when we didn’t win. When we got beat it was always due to overall size and superior born talent, because we always had the best playbook.
I love how Randy Moss just gets praised for the play with everyone saying he just knew and has amazing awareness, and then he’s just like I saw purple and I tossed enough said
Being a Colts fan, that was for sure the turning point of that game. Both teams were looking unstoppable that year by end of the regular season. Also that was Dungy' s team, coached by Jim Caldwell. Ask any Colts or Lions fan about Caldwell. Both teams were on fire the 2009 season. First time in NFL history that both Super Bowl teams started off with a 13-0. Colts were 14-0 and locked the #1 seed and sat their starters (after the first two series of play) to avoid injuring a starter in what they considered useless season games. I believe they could have walked through the last two weeks and been 16-0. But then you add all the pressure of being "Undefeated" going into post season. Ask any Pat's fan about that pressure, 19-0 t-shirts in the trash (thanks NY Giants for ending that one).
@@ballistic3666 I would say it was the most gutsy. Easy decision to kick a field goal, hand the ball to a RB, or even throw it up high to Alshon. That’s what 99.999% of coaches would have done.

7:20 I'm glad Tom Jackson explained that was a Globetrotters reference that Chris Berman was trying to make because that sounded absolutely nothing like the Sweet Georgia Brown.
1:54 is particularly smart because quarterbacks have traditionally been trained in and are considered back-up fieldgoal holders. So it wouldn't really send alarm bells ringing to have someone with throwing skills in to hold.
It used to be common for the third string QB to also be the starting placeholder in case something went wrong with the snap or if they wanted to fake. Not sure why this isn't the case anymore.
The "fake spike" hoopla at 4:43 is unfair to the Jets. Yes, they scored a TD, but it looks like the Jets were trying on D. The guy who caught the touchdown was actually being covered pretty well.
illegal shift of #22 was called, the play didn't count. 2nd and 16 was on the screen right after. All that for nothing. He was a bust and I predicted it before he started. I watched him play at A&M. he could run and had 2 really good receivers that saved his bad throws. He also didn't take the NFL job seriously enough, same as when he played at A&M.
During the height of the legion of boom days and Seahawk strength, I used to fear those mediocre Rams teams. They always came prepared to play, regularly earned points from trick plays, and gave us tough games that they just didn't seem to give others. That's true division rivalry.
On the rams fake kick, I'm pretty sure the guy sat on the sidelines and came back in at the last second. That one deserves way more credit, that was some 4d chess move
For it to not be illegal substitution, he has to have been in the field of play the whole time. If he comes off the sideline, he has to report in inside the numbers, and then can go outside the numbers. But if he was in the previous play, he can stand anywhere on the field as long as he is not offside. I'm sure he just stood right next to the sideline but didn't step a foot over the line.
Don Shula loved deception. The Hook and Lateral from 1982 and the flea flicker (Failed but used successfully other times) from Super Bowl III are the best known ones
We had a play like that last one in pop warner for 2 pt conversions, but in ours, the entire line was on one side of the field, and there were just a couple of backs on the other side, so the center in the middle of the field was actually one of the ends, and therefore was eligible. I was center so I liked that play, haha.
That second clip, the one of the game between the Vikings and Bears, took me multiple loops of step-by-step playback to see exactly where the QB was hiding the ball. He has is trapped between the side of his body and and upper right arm. What an outstandingly executed deception. It looks like the QB produces the ball out of thin air, like he were a professional Magian.
Holy cow... "Oilers". I totally forgot they even once existed. LOL Also, I want the Rams old helmet and uniform style of the 80's or whatever, whenever that was in this video around the 5:40 mark.
I have no idea what the defense was thinking. Why cover an offensive lineman lined up out to the side? If they lined up their 4 defensive linemen over the ball, that punter would have never gotten a pass away.
A huge amount of these plays are laterals. As a former Rugby player I think the first OC that starts incorporating laterals significantly into the play book will revolutionize the game.
I think the problem is that most of the guys with good hands aren't near each other on the field. The receivers/tight ends are all trying to get open in space so the only guys you can lateral to are linemen with solid hands for blocking, not catching. The only real opportunity to lateral is when a back stays near the pocket to help block a rusher so he is already busy.
@@nightripper799 Watch the Texas-USC National Championship Game from 2005 when Reggie Bush attempted a showboat lateral that resulted in a turnover. USC went on to lose the game by 3.
The rules of football make this harder in comparison to rugby. In rugby, the offside rules require defending players to play in front of the ball making a backward pass a lot safer. In football, once the play is live, players on either team can move just about anywhere they want to on the field making a backward pass a lot more risky.
4:01 was smooth as hell
I caught that too. Very impressive.
Also back when personal fouls weren’t called every play… dude goes straight for the punter’s knee when he’s far out of bounds lol crazy

The rules of football make this harder in comparison to rugby. In rugby, the offside rules require defending players to play in front of the ball making a backward pass a lot safer. In football, once the play is live, players on either team can move just about anywhere they want to on the field making a backward pass a lot more risky.
Well done yo!!!
8:30 late hit penalty, but the rams player on the sideline gave him a hit too 🤣
@3:27 my uncle was at that game. He said most of the people seated near him didn't watch the game, instead they stared at him most of the game
Why?
I love that the most simple plays in rugby are considered high iq in football 😂
I love the fake kickoff return. The defenders looking for the ball 🫡🤔🫡🤔🫡🤔

Executing a trick play virtually means that's the last trick play you'll see from that offense for at least the next two years
7:35 HUGE brain play, unplanned by an individual all on his own
I've always been a fan of rollout halfback options and then throwing to a wide open QB.
The fake punt catch was awesome, surprised that is not done more often.
As someone from a country that plays rugby, I can believe that laterals are so rare in the NFL
