As a Redskins fan in the 80's you always had to watch for Danny White taking off or throwing on 4th down in punt formation. Probably gave him a couple extra yards on his net punting average as teams had to take into account that he was a skilled quarterback in addition to being the punter.
Danny was an all around athlete. Played Third Base on a pair of Baseball National Championship teams in addition to rewriting the team record books for passing and punting. Might have been the best athlete to ever come out of the State of Arizona.
Just came back to this video after two years and my favorite part is 5:22. Thielen was so much of a nobody that the announcer felt the need to clarify he was a WR. Nobody needs that clarification in 2019.
Part of it is that you don't see nearly as many long runs anymore. Defenses are much faster overall and pretty much every scheme is designed to keep everything in front of you and make offenses execute ten plus play drives if they're going to score on you. Most big plays these days are passes where all of the yardage is gained on the pass and the receiver goes down immediately after the catch. Plays where a guy gets the ball and motors thirty plus yards downfield are exceedingly rare now.
Haights that’s like in Madden where it says that you don’t call it just to call it, you think you’ve got something up your sleeve. I call it just to call it
Exo Games there is no such thing as a planned fumble with defenders coming at you. What kind of fake is that? They see the ball on the ground and get confused on what to do next
Punters are pretty damn important if you want to control field position, generally, you have a backup QB, you don’t have a backup punter. Your kicking dude gets hurt in a game, you have to figure something out to keep field control under control.
Alpha Gametauri sorta yes? That’s usually your first choice as an emergency punter but it’s not an ideal situation to be in. It’s a bit like asking a heart surgeon to do an appendectomy.
Always good to hear a call by Dandy Don Meredith, RIP. Can't decide if my favorite football play is the onside kick, or fake punt - they're both up there...
In a 1982 game at Washington, the Cowboys were about to punt from deep in their own territory. The Redskins, setting up for a return, didn't rush White. Danny must've thought "If they aren't going to rush I might as well start running." So Danny took off. I don't recall how far he ran, but I'm guessing he had run about 10, maybe 15 yards before the Redskins realized that he hadn't punted. During that first 10-15 yards, except for the punt returner nearly all of the Redskins ran in the same direction as Danny. It would be great to locate the film of that play. The Cowboys won 24-10. It would be the Redskins' only loss during the strike shortened season. Man, Danny was definitely a multi threat.
TheJFerg24 I'm a cheifs fan and in the days where we were awful I actually looked forward to colquitt punting because he put so many inside the ten, his brother is a good punter too.
Incredible. How could you omit the greatest fake punt of all time? Larry Siepel of the 72 dolphins. Without his fake punt/run in the championship game against the Steelers there may not have been a perfect season.
Brian Morman had several great punt fakes in Buffalo. He had over 100 yards rushing a few seasons, I only know this cuz I'm a Bills fan and we punt a lot...he was once the best player we had on the team...those were dark times for Buffalo
Yes... Moorman was amazing and there were definitely some rough years in there! Every few seasons we'd have an amazing start with a new QB and tell ourselves this is the year... only to be brought back to reality mid-season. Oh the joys of being a Buffalo fan!
4:31 Up by 7 from your own Endzone. That was one hell of a gamble. Can you imagine if it failed. I'm shocked by how many of these fake punts were done by teams that were ahead at the time.
I feel like that wasn't planned. When the defensive player shifts look out how the receiver waives to the punter, then look at the other rusher, he goes straight not looking for a pass at all.
Hell of a gamble is putting it lightly. If that play goes south and ends with a touchdown for the other team they’d never hear the end of it. Like writing yourself in the history books for all the wrong reasons kind of level.
In the 1972 AFC championship game, a Miami fake punt was crucial. I don't remember the yardage gained but it was from approximately midfield down to the 10. The fake punt set-up Miami's only score in the first half. Miami won 21-17, and then they completed the 17-0 season by winning the Super Bowl.
Larry Seiple of Miami against Pittsburgh in the 1972 AFC Championship game. That play saved the Dolphins perfect season because up to that time the Steelers were dominating the game.
As usual, a great collection! The only thing I'd change is adding the game date (or at least year) at the beginning of each clip. In any case, more, please!
Notice how in the older clips how they like to tackle them around the neck in chokeholds. I guess the necks were stronger then because they look like they were trying to unscrew the head from the shoulders
Garo’s wasn’t a fake punt. Worst fake field goal? Stenerud in a playoff game. The snapper was supposed to snap in to Jan, but didn’t because Jan wasn’t looking. Jan wasn’t supposed to be looking.
Honestly, that setup at 5:37 requires a lot of courage from the punter to sell it. Basically has to leave himself completely prone because if the other team figures out he still has the ball, he's getting completely obliterated. Probably not easy to keep your composure as you have two NFLers sprinting directly at you with intent to destroy you, lol
Hey! You missed the one where Larry Seiple pulled off the un-called fake in the playoffs against the Steelers back in the early 70's. Damn lucky for him he pulled it off! The look on Shula's face was priceless
Im just glad it isnt heres the play, heres the rerun of the play, and in case you didnt see it, slow mo of the play. The video is cut to just the normal speed of a play, and continues on to the next video. Lovin it
Two points. 1. If it's a bad snap or the punter drops the ball, it ain't a fake. 2. One of those Rams fakes against the 49ers looked suspiciously like a "read" obtained from videotape rather than a design fake. The CB comes in to try a block, leaving the gunner-turned-receiver in acres of space. If the CB stays on him, they kick it away. Not hard for the special teams coordinator to alert the punter and gunners to that possibility before the game.
modusvivendi2 probably not. In most punts a punter is not going to have any sort of time to look and decied if they want to punt it away or throw a pass. By the time they even comprehend to wanting to throw it instead of punt they are already hit by a defender
modusvivendi2 I'm not saying that the play u talking about is not a read but how can u say it's not a fake punt. I'll do how u did it 2 points* 1. They are lined up in punt formation clearly 2. They did not punt they ball instead they faked it and passed for the 1st down.
Most of these were great play calling and day after day film study. I still don't think I would trust the average NFL punter or kicker throwing a decent pass for a first down. Holders are different especially if they are a Quarterback. Seattle SeaHawks Jim Zorn was always the one to watch.
At 9:13 the announcer mentions the Hamilton Tiger-Cats. I wonder what they had to do with it. At 9:29 I'lll NEVER forget that fake punt to Gary Reasons. That was almost exactly 30 years ago. I was a football-crazy teenager at the time and I've always been a Giants fan. They didn't score a single TD all game but won 15-13 on 5 Matt Bahr field goals. They's win the next game against the Bills 20-19. It was called Super Bowl XXV. :D
I love it when the punt throws deep and the defensive back intercepts it costing 30/40 yards of field position-effectively resulting in the equivalent of a decent punt-when the smart move would be to drop it.
The play works: "Amazing play call!!!!"
The play fails: "What a stupid call!!!!"
9:28
"We're gonna run a fake punt"
"But why"
"Because of reasons"
Imagine if 4:32 failed. The coach would have been crucified.
yup
It all comes down to execution

LMAO YEAH
I miss when the announcers would call out every five yards on a long play. It just built up excitement so well!
nicsandknacksandseans some announcers still do it sometimes, it's not like they all just stopped
nicsandknacksandseans HIS ON THE 50 THE 45 THE 35 THE 20 THE 10 TOUCHDOWN!
maybe the guys run too fast for them to do that?! Or the announcers talk to slow! They are probably not the ones doing the radio shows!!!

A lot of punters have a low speed rating, but you should never underestimate a punter running for his life.
and +100 to sneak

Aint nobody got time for that
7:16 went from "Shit, I'm going to get fired for this to... Ha intended fake (cough)"

That was the craziest, but I like the first and third best because they were easy
Agreed
He sold that so well haha
Jakewon Hubbards
Too bad it was preseason
5:32 was absolutely beautiful.
Danny White was quite an athlete, and this compilation helps to show that. He could pass, punt, and as you saw, also could run. He was flying.
At ASU, he was more or less given a green light to run fakes if he saw something that led to believe he could pick up a first down.
7:16 Not really a fake punt, more of a fumble gone right for the punter.
evknucklehead mmm I think the fumble wad planned on purpose
Exo Games there is no such thing as a planned fumble with defenders coming at you. What kind of fake is that? They see the ball on the ground and get confused on what to do next
it looks intentional
ever heard of the fumblerooski?
The marquet King run by the raiders was a fumble too
When you realize qbs slide when they run and punters don’t
Because QB's are more important
Punters are pretty damn important if you want to control field position, generally, you have a backup QB, you don’t have a backup punter. Your kicking dude gets hurt in a game, you have to figure something out to keep field control under control.
money gaming yes, they might have some time in high school kicking.
But if you want a great defense you need a great punter.
@@Mostlyharmless1985 Couldn't field goal kickers take the place of punters in a back up scenario?
Alpha Gametauri sorta yes? That’s usually your first choice as an emergency punter but it’s not an ideal situation to be in. It’s a bit like asking a heart surgeon to do an appendectomy.
Man, there aren't many things more satisfying in football than a successful fake punt. The element of surprise makes it great.
Love when the camera man gets fools too
It’s amazing that Danny White was a great quarterback and a pretty fair punter! That gave Dallas an advantage in 4th down situations.
He always had the green light to go. Roger Staubach said Danny was the best athlete on the team.
Always good to hear a call by Dandy Don Meredith, RIP. Can't decide if my favorite football play is the onside kick, or fake punt - they're both up there...

4:33 ohhhh boy I bet number 29 got some heat for that last-minute change up
It looked like he was going for safety but he must have forgot absolutely nobody but the rams would throw the ball while backed up in the end zone
jesus, half the Rams offensive plays are punt fakes
Danny White was the Punter and QB, that they were able to catch teams off guard so often is amazing.
Man, this Jeff Fisher guy is crafty! Bet he's gonna make it big in the NFL.
Danny White QB/Punter for the Cowboys ran just about the best fake punts ever. He had good speed as well. Check out 9:52.
Coy Groughtenhiemer Doug Cosbie almost had an awesome block on the last play. That might have opened Danny White for a much longer run.
Above average passer as well. Could punt on 4th down too!
Danny White was well known to take off with a punt.
In a 1982 game at Washington, the Cowboys were about to punt from deep in their own territory. The Redskins, setting up for a return, didn't rush White.

Danny Whitte was a gifted athlete. Too bad Doomsday wasn't quite what it used to be during his time as Dallas QB.

I always like the video before watching cause I know it's great already
Being a quarterback/punter, Danny White was always a triple threat. I didn't remember him being as fast as he was.
Two-sport start at ASU (baseball, and football). He was amazing.
These compilations are made even better with the older plays.

9:28 - The whole time I'm watching this, I keep thinking "That Reasons play has GOT to be on here."

Mike Lemieux You said it all.
I was thinking right from the get go that this vid has to have at least one fake punt from the Parcells Giants or it's pure horse shit!
