Greatest Punt Fakes of All Time | NFL NCAA Punt Trick Plays

12:06 When you knock yourself out from embarrassment. 🤣

The lead blocker for LSU at 4:00 took/gave one hell of a hit!!

[@fredact]

I loved the camera angle on that one, you could see how wide open the left side of the field was.

[@NateKennard]

Punter got a flag for “taunting” on that play and the touchdown was overturned

[@JeromyBranch]

1972 Dolphins at Steelers playoff game. Dolphins punter was given permission any time he wanted because Steelers had a bad habit of just turning around and running. It wasn't even a called play, the punter just took off on a 4th and long and picked up 20 before anybody even noticed he was running down the field. THAT was the best fake punt ever. It iced the game for Miami and was a big part of their perfect season.

[@rileyjackfansmithandjones8238]

I still hate Larry Sieple for Doing my Steelers so Wrong!

[@ronthompson95]

An important element of fake punt success is really bad missed tackles.

[@MikeDCWeld]

The other team running a max protect return scheme tends to help too.

[@XxxXxx-br7eq]

You have to remember those are defensive players thinking about defending their special teams unit thinking about blocking for a punt return so they get caught off guard

[@rickeuler5792]

Doubt that there is any film of it, but in 1963, the Steelers were trailing Dallas 19-17 with about 4 minutes to go. The Steelers had to win to have a shot at the Conference title the following week. On fourth and sixteen at their own 12 yard line, the Steeler punter (also their starting qb, Ed Brown) threw a 40 plus yard completion to Red Mack, even though the entire Dallas team knew it was coming. The Steelers went on to score a TD (after converting a fourth and one instead of trying a 45 plus yard field goal into the wind) and won, 24-19. Then they lost to New York the next week.

12:11 my man got clotheslined by an invisible player 🤣

He taunted mid play

Heyward-Bey to the camerman: “DUDE!!!! You have ONE JOB!!!! Take my picture.”

@ 6:31 This should have been an ‘illegal snap’.

[@nado9159]

Nothing like a great trick play

[@3rdandlong]

There is a beautiful fake punt by Oregon against UCLA in Pac-12 Championship game when Helfrish was HC. Was hoping it was included in this montage. Got the crowd in it when UCLA was rolling.

[@jasondean88888]

4:01 What a nice block

[@MiriOhki]

8:04 Brilliant, if dirty move. Not only the safety, but eating the holding penalties to end the game.

[@johnbecay3859]

i didn't know that if you gave up a saftey it negated any penalties on that play. pretty smart.

[@MiriOhki]

@@johnbecay3859 it isn’t that it negates the penalties, it’s that there were no defensive penalties. If there’s defensive penalties on the final play as time expires, the offense gets one untimed down. But if there’s any offensive penalties, the game ends. So in this case it didn’t matter if they shot every single defensive player with a minigun, or committed every offensive penalty in the book, the game would have ended. So they just gave the other team their two points, and held all over the place, because a 3 point lead and 0:00 on the clock means it’s over.

[@johnbecay3859]

@@MiriOhki thanks for the clarification. i knew that but it totally slipped my mind. this is a brilliant play...hold, hold, hold, take the safety and time expires. i'm impressed. coaches and players continue to find ways to tweak the game of football.

[@douglasiles2024]

@@johnbecay3859 That one is still one of my favorites. One of the few times you have permission from the coach to hold or do whatever to the defense. Lol

[@gregburrell6244]

Holding everyone on the receiving team is now outlawed in the NFL. Intentional safeties can still happen but the hold & tackle is gone.

[@dotcomula]

You missed the Browns fake punt versus New Orleans in N.O. in October 2010. The line blocked so well they made a hole big enough to drive a big fat truck/kicker through. Ended up going for 68 yards.

[@DaveJOHAZ]

Yeah, play of the decade for the Browns! (Not including playoffs)

[@wrongwaywally7458]

please no music

[@Leonardroad]

I stopped watching when the music kicked in

[@kenhasibar2624]

No music? No s***! That was terrible.

[@jeffmutch7640]

Lighten up A**hole. There probably wasn’t any audio play by play for some of the plays. Minimal music, and you have to bitch about it!

[@johnnybakblast457]

Nebraska fans know the “puntarooski” as the “bummerooski” when John O’Leary score on the play against Missouri in 1975, somehow Bowden gets credit for it.

[@arnycarrasco1128]

Good games

[@jamesberry3230]

missed Dallas Cowboy's punter Danny White's 2 fake punts in the same game both went for big yardage

[@DG-oq8hj]

One of the greatest fakes was on a Monday Night Football game where the Seahawks faked a field goal with kicker Efron Herrera. Howard Cossel was announcing the game and he said "Nowww that's Football"

[@sludge8506]

Not a fake punt, champ. 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

[@DG-oq8hj]

​@sludge8506 I never said it was a fake punt, I said they faked a field goal on a Monday Night Football game. In my opinion even though it wasn't a fake punt it was still one of the greatest fake outs in Football.

Some of them punters could be great quarterbacks

[@multiyapples]

Good plays.

[@greggorylovecraft]

Video was great until the background music came in. Unfortunate...

[@dustanglx50]

2:10 kind of don't count. This happened during a practice game (2009). The fact that they did this on a televised practice means they would never do this during a game because now it is on film for all to study (no more element of surprise for the fake hand-off).

[@EvanderTrolyfield]

That was the best one lol

[@thomasshileny4551]

I know you can't get em all but you missed the Marquette King accidental fake punt against the jaguars where he just put athletic'd everyone to pick up a 4th and 21 (I believe)

[@kenowens9021]

The one in 1967 was great too. There's been tons of great fakes in the history of football.

1972 AFC playoff - Miami/Pittsburgh. Fins punter Larry Seiple fakes a punt and runs 30 yards.

The whole time I watched these clips, I had a smile on my face. Tricks are for kids, right?

[@taurnguard]

10:32 They're still trying to find the photographer.

[@goodmaro]

The play at 6:30 is illegal. In American rules the snapper has to let go of the ball immediately after he stops moving the ball backward, which he didn't here. In neither American nor Canadian rules is the snap allowed to go to a player who started on the offensive line on that snap, which it did here. The only way this works is the officials lost sight of the ball.

[@bigpoppa1234]

I assume the snapper can't trap the ball with their legs?

[@goodmaro]

@@bigpoppa1234 You assume correctly for American rules. The snapper is allowed to brush a leg with the ball, or even to end the snap with the ball against his own thigh, but only if an eligible teammate simultaneously takes the ball. But the snapper can't hold the ball there while waiting for a teammate to come for it. In Canadian rules he can.

[@jaredwright1655]

Had he just set it on the ground behind him and let the gaurd scoop it I think it would have been legal

[@goodmaro]

@@jaredwright1655 Depends when. NCAA outlawed a "planned loose ball play in the vicinity of the snapper" shortly before the turn of the century.

Dolphins' punter/TE Larry Seiple - 1972 AFC Championship Game at Pittsburgh (37-yard run) 3. Giants' LB Gary Reasons - 1990 NFC Championship Game at San Francisco (30-yard run)

Consistently Pray for forgiveness, guidance in a good (positive) direction, and for help against evil. Pray to be saved from hell (whatever that may be). Pray for your friends and your family too, it only takes a minute or so/less at a time to pray. Do it and your life will slowly get better, or maybe quickly. It probably just depends on you and the kind of person you are/have been. Don't wait until its too late and you have to suffer the consequences of built up bad karma from immoral acts/unrepented sins. Maybe together we can help make the world a better place by changing ourselves for the better, and changing things around us for the better. And addressing/thanking the CREATOR, LORD GOD at the beginning and end of your prayers would be a good idea 😊 Or just be my friend if you don't want to say the prayer 😄 I'm trying to help you get right with the LORD🙏 Amen. 🙏 You should prostrate yourself if you don't want to do spoken prayer, or do both ☺🙏 Please worship the LORD GOD and not any idol.
