so cool to see the NYGs pull this play off in a pressure game.
Just shows the way this team is coached and what they can do.

Yeah…I liked this. And I think they did it two or three times. If not, they ran another just like it, I remember.

I have appreciated DJs ball fakes all season but quietly Breida has been a quality contributor in spots and I just loved his effort yesterday. Both he and Feliciano who they brought over from Buff initially had key plays in the game.

I thought there were a few new type of plays which was great to see..
I've been hoping they would pitch out out wide to Barkley and that worked great also..

I'd rather they didn't try and get too cute like this. Sure, do some fakes but this could have been a fumble. That handoff was pretty high too.

It was just to put that on film for the defense to now have to think about it. To much can go wrong, especially now we’re going into the gauntlet of the season. |

Love the play, well executed. Boise St would be proud. However it only netted 3 yrds but it put the defense on noticed and I think that was the p[purpose of it.

lol, idk it looks neat but it’s a few yard gain. The broadcast and most of the audience knew exactly what the play was as it’s even used at the youth level.

Vikings just have a good run D. Tomlinson ate it up I believe. |

I’d disagree with that assessment. It’s a great fake. |

I'd say that is something he has developed. It wasn't something he arrived with.

No doubt Rosie. Always pretty good but his fakes among the best in the league. Bark also plays a part in the as well |

every time we do something like that it will give the opposing defenses more pause, and hopefully results in even more offensive production. Keep em guessing!!!

And everyone would be screaming why we didnt just hand the ball off and got cute. Kinda like the double pass the Vikings did on that 3rd and 1. If they just stuck with what was working, they would have gotten that 1st down. I liked the wrinkle though. |

They did it in a playoff game. I’d disagree with that assessment. It’s a great fake. No reason to try that again when we can run with the best of them from our basic formation. That play has disaster written all over it if not done properly. We put it on tape for the opposition to now have to defend. All that for three yards.. |

Your scenarios of disaster are fantasy ...lol It was one play that they had confidence in. Its an awesome show of control and execution |

Its an awesome show of control and execution I agree. I said I liked the play call. I guess the last 10 years still has me thinking the worst. I think we score with that play or not. That play was much more riskier. |

Jones is a superior athlete compared to Eli. |

We'll see if he'll become a better all around QB, but his athletic skill set is very impressive for sure. |

Nothing really risky about it imo, the real bone head play was all the unecessary shifting at the goaline that cost us a TD. Just pound it up the middle.... |

It was a great play call IMO. Kafka could really get sniped from us after this season. Sucks but true. |

He has the ability to be a consistent top 10 or better QB |

Now, the Eagles will have that play in their meetings to think about. Football is a chess match, you have to outmaneuver and attack your opposition in all angles. |
