Announcer: "Wouldn't be surprised if the Eagles ran this against the Cowboys"

[nathanlt]

The announcer said that this play will likely be successful against the Cowboys. I'd love it if the Cowboys stuffed this play! Nice to see America's team mentioned in a college game, although he didn't describe the Cowboys that way.

 

[mldardy]

I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of teams ran this. Not just the Eagles.

 

[Mark]

That was a clever play.

 

[Xelda]

I'd prefer for us to run it on the Eagles.

You can't fumble the ball like that it is a dead ball in the NFL I believe

It wasn't a fumble... it was a handoff.

It wasn't a fumble... it was a handoff.

Yep. That wasn't a Fumblerooski. The Fumblerooski is what Nebraska used to do where they literally put the ball on the ground and someone else comes around and picks it up.

That play took a long time to develop. Doesn't look like something that will work in the NFL.

 

[Mark]

Too bad Rutgers is blowing the game, after a good first half.

 

[noshame]

I'm been thinking more likely to pass.

 

[Mannix]

I was thinking this same exact thing a week ago, but I was worried that they would bootleg out of it.

 

[plymkr]

Lol, you know it’s a big game on Sunday when random sports announcers are mentioning it.

I keep thinking the Eagles are going to someday burn a team huge on a fake of the butt-push play. But as long as it works pretty much every time as designed, there's not a lot of incentive to get cute with it.

I could be mistaken but didn’t they do that exact thing just last week against the commanders?

They were in the rush push formation and handed it to Swift for an end around and he scored a TD off it

They did against Washington last week. Handed off to Swift for a I think it was a 6 yard TD run. It was inside the 10,

 

[Captain-Crash]

heck yeah, we have the little person who's right for that play. go-go little person...

Yes, in years past it would have been a giveaway that something was up due to that player aligned directly behind the QB but now due to the Tush Push he's already there.

As long as Dak isn't the one running with the ball.
