this was the one with a fake jet sweep and throw to zeke.
of course u cannot use it 10 times a game.
a lot of us wanted to see zeke going in the opposite direction as austin in a jet sweep.
but this was a nice twist.
but why not more jet sweep action that could be a fake or not a fake, especially if zeke could also run it in addition to leaking out to catch a pass?

Linehan stole that from his PlayStation!!!
 
The Lions game is history; we won.

No amount of rehashed minutiae from that game is gonna matter this Sunday vs Houston.
 
On the pass he hit Zeke with at the end is what we should run with Austin. Wheel routes should be his best friend.

Zeke just oozes talent out of his pores. I have zero problem giving him a second contract. Murray's a pleeb next to Zeke.

It's very similar to one I posted a few weeks ago, it was the Rams vs Cowboys, that they used against us. Gurley goes up the sneaks out and behind the LBs instead of into the flat, but very similar

That play is officially named the Joe Looney play...
 
The fake-sweep screen is a staple of our playbook, it's just the screen usually goes to Austin instead of Zeke. We run about one a game.

Read option. Jet sweeps, fake jet sweeps.

And you can use a fake all day long as long as what you're faking is a credible threat.

Could be, and should be, read option all day long. We have a sturdy, running QB who can run a read option well. Dak is a capable and credible threat for the read option.
