Horrible decision to call it against the Pats in the first place. Sure, save your best plays for them (especially in the playoffs), but this wasn’t one of them. It’s a low risk (normally) high reward (against scrub teams) play, but Belichick’s teams don’t jump offsides on obvious bait situations, nor does he call timeouts.
Eric Forsyth situational football - while bill may not have ran them through the exact play you can but he drilled into them what to do when a trick play unfolds. Save this kind of shock play for a team like the Jets
The only terrible part of the play was a head coach that didn’t know what he was doing making a slight alteration to it that made it blow up in everyone’s face.
I'm so tired of the "your criticism is invalid because you don't do said job, do it yourself if you dont like it" line We don't have to be fucking sound engineers to tell that the sound is unbalanced, jfc
This video was extremely necessary..thank you lol Now we just need a Seahawks not letting Marshawn Lynch run the ball explanation with this type of detail.
Man... I'm a die hard Detroit Lions fan, I just want them to win one solitary playoff game. But if they made a Super Bowl run and lost under similar circumstances as Seattle, or blew a 28-3 lead like the Falcons, I literally would never get over it. I just wouldn't. At least Seattle got one ring, but that play likely* prevented a dynasty.
They threw the game, only logical explanation. Sometimes you can get paid more to lose a game and the way the NFL is run, most players don’t have undying loyalty for whatever team they’re playing for that year.
@@ottogofast3882 Pretty sure the logical explanation is that Pete Carroll just overthought the situation. He knew that everybody on the planet was expecting a run play, so instead of betting on Lynch winning the battle and 9 guys blocking perfectly, he tried to catch the defense by surprise. It was obviously the wrong call, but you don't need wild conspiracy theories to understand why Pete made that choice.
I think Pat is saying worst play. That means how it’s is executed and how it is drawn up mixed in with nobody really knowing what’s going on. Not an individual messing up by running into an ass.
The buttfumble was a mistake. The fake punt was the worst / dumbest designed play in NFL history. Like seriously pause it and just stare at the formation for 5 minutes, the entire play was bananalands
Honestly that play design had a lot more genius to it than I coulda imagined before the explanation. But I dont think a simple comminucation error was the only margin between successful execution and crucifying failure
great explanation! I never understood the concept or what happened till now. I rmr watching it when it happened: this and the butt fumble were timeless plays I am glad I got to experience live
As a Colts fan living in New England for the last 20 years and catching hell all through the Manning era playoff losses I have to admit this play is difficult to stomach when sitting amongst my friends who are Patriots fans during Pats Colts games. It ALWAYS gets thrown in my face. Thanks a lot Chuck.
Pats fan here. Because Chuck wanted to try and get them offsides without telling any other coaches on the sideline the players on the field were confused as to how to run the play. Because of this it was doomed to fail. Miscommunication at it's worst. That being said though, at least it was a simple mistake rather than the play itself being bad. It just looks that way from an outside view.
...genius is stretching it a bit. The core presumption is that a Belichick-led team will have enough of a discipline failure to begin to substitute before the other team has left the field and officially begun the process. That's a pretty bad presumption in the first place. There's other trick plays which might have done better.
I know this is to be taken as a joke, but the Patriots are simply a discipline team. People will claim they cheat, because they need vindication for why they always seem to win games. It's like swimming in the ocean and you get those thoughts in the back of your head like sharks are under you, or when you're walking in the woods and you feel like your being watched. That's also why the Patriots win a lot of games, they have this aura about them that causes teams to over think or psych them selves out.
@@spacepioneer4070 yeah. Or they actually cheat. And have been caught multiple times doing it. But your silly ocean/shark analogy definitely examine it much better.
They're only stupid because the Pats aren't fooled. They're all fine by design. Butt fumble was just an athletic move by Wilfork, not really like the other two which were actually smart calls that backfired. Pat explains why this one didnt work. At worst you lose 5 yards in a pooch punt zone and throwing on the 1 is fine, happens all the time and makes sense with the clock. So it's really just the Patriots being lucky or good. Not really as simple as bad plays
@@billt8504 Those aren't "breaks". They are due to the fact that the Pats are so incredibly good that teams either feel the need to get clever (too clever for their own good)...or they get nervous because they are intimidated. The tuck rule play is in no way similar to those other 3 though so it makes no sense to try to group them together.
Actually, even the Butt Fumble was a reasonable play by Sanchez gone horribly wrong. The handoff was flubbed, leaving Sanchez with the ball and no plan on what to do with it (because the play was not meant for him to continue holding the ball). So he did a reasonable thing--turned around and attempted to slide back to the line of scrimmage. Sadly, as stated, Wilfork (on defense) made a really athletic move and shoved the center right into the spot that Sanchez was starting to slide, causing Sanchez to run right into his butt and fumble the ball. At full speed, it looks like Sanchez was flailing around like a guppy out of its tank, and the result of it was, of course, horrendous...but aside from screwing up the handoff (which was more likely the RB's fault), everything Sanchez did was what you might expect a QB to do in that situation. In other words, it wasn't Sanchez's incompetence, but rather Wilfork's great defense, that caused the fumble. Funny as fuck either way, though.
I've heard of this show before but never watched or listened. This dude is a great storyteller, and i love hearing all the inside stuff about practice and certain teams and players. I will definitely be watching more.
Honestly the but fumble was more Vince wilfork throwing another human at mark Sanchez than it was mark Sanchez running into him, but regardless he completely unraveled after that play
@@hawks8830 What's your beef? I made this account Like halfway through the first season of UGF. I don't think Drewski will mind if I watch other videos. You obviously do
Thank you for this. I’ve wondered for so long what the hell was going on during this play, after all this time it finally makes sense. Pat is an unbelievably great story teller, this is so entertaining.
I always thought it was an attempt at the Swinging Gate. QB in shotgun, throws to receiver behind line, everyone runs forward. Just thought it was a bit of nerves. Good to know it was somehow more and less of a clusterfuck than that.
I happened to catch this live, I wanna say it was SNF. All I know is I just remember being baffled and wondered what the heck they were thinking! Well, now I know. lol. Thanks Pat!
As a very big patriots fan I have always wondered what the hell were you guys thinking on that play. So it’s good to know actually why you guys did it. So thank you for this
Magic Trick88: It’s a good play against scrub teams. Belichick teams very rarely jump offsides on obvious fake-out situations. Nor do they call timeouts. Low risk, high reward play, but the reward was 0.1% likely of happening in the first place, and then you compound the risk with several fuckups because you’re the Colts.
As a pats fan from Indiana this was my first game I ever went to just because you guys were playing my team the patriots, I took my son and we were surrounded by Indy fans and I was laughing my ass off in the stands while this old lady was giving me the most dirty go to hell looks ever. I just gave a big smile and chanted Brady, Brady as much as possible to piss everyone off it was a great time. Thanks for such a good memory for my first live game ever Pat.
Hilarious explanation. But damn it if this doesn't sum up Pagano's coaching job with the Colts. If not for Luck, I think Pagano would have been an unmitigated disaster. Some guys are best suited to being great assistants, not the head guy.
At least Troy polomolu wasn’t in the c gap

Worse play in NFL history is when Seattle didn’t run the ball with beast mode at the 1 in the super bowl
@@BearFaceTV you are so right. They did not want him to touch that ball. If he scored. He was going to say I'm here so I don't get fined.

I think Pat is saying worst play. That means how it’s is executed and how it is drawn up mixed in with nobody really knowing what’s going on. Not an individual messing up by running into an ass.
Honestly, id say the butt fumble wasnt as bad as blake fucking bortles throwing the ball at his own teammates helmet and letting it get intercepted
Noah Sterling wasn’t there a similar situation with the redskins? Where they actually got a throw off?
The buttfumble was a mistake. The fake punt was the worst / dumbest designed play in NFL history. Like seriously pause it and just stare at the formation for 5 minutes, the entire play was bananalands
To be fair it was more like one of the best DTs to ever live literally throwing an offensive linemen into his qbs face but yeah
Colts = lack of communication
Sánchez = lack of coordination
I could listen to Pat tell stories 24 hours a day. Absolutely love it.
Honestly that play design had a lot more genius to it than I coulda imagined before the explanation.
But I dont think a simple comminucation error was the only margin between successful execution and crucifying failure
"Hopefully we could out-Belichick Belichick." Yep, that's what I thought.
The clip of Belichick just contemptuously shaking his head at that prospect makes the moment.

Thank you for this. I’ve wondered for so long what the hell was going on during this play, after all this time it finally makes sense. Pat is an unbelievably great story teller, this is so entertaining.
The absolute worst play in NFL history was not having Marshawn run in the ball from the 1 yard line during a SUPER BOWL.
To be fair the pats would have been 100% prepared for him to run the ball. Butler had only practiced that interception just in case
Maybe, or he gets stopped at the line because every guy was watching him. It's one of those things that will haunt the NFL forever.
What about the falcons not kneeling the ball for 4 drives when they were up 3 TDS
The seahawks ran 2 times from the inside the 5 yard line in that game and didn’t get in with lynch, including the play before the pick
I'm a Pats fan and this was hilarious 😂.

Classic example of teams trying to Belichick, Belichick and screwing themselves.
It was a great play. Just unfortunate how key players where switched last minute

I could never grasp why the ball was snapped, but it all makes sense now.
Neither could Pagano. I remember you could read his lips as they were coming off the field, "Why'd you snap the ball?"
