The Detroit Lions are the best trick play group within the NFL, and it looks like they unveil a brand new one each week. We’ve got seen Detroit rating with the “hook and ladder.” We’ve seen them discover the tip zone on a reverse flea flicker. We’ve seen the Lions throw touchdowns to linemen.
Lions offensive coordinator busted out a brand new trick play when his group took on the lowly Chicago Bears in Week 16 at Soldier Subject, and I’m actually undecided I’ve ever seen this one earlier than. With the Lions already up large early within the second half, the Lions referred to as a faux fumble full with the operating again diving on the bottom earlier than launching an open landing go.
The creativity here’s a 10-out-of-10. Watch Detroit’s newest trick play right here:
Simply watch the operating again take a dive and faux like he’s leaping on a unfastened ball. That is genius.
This play legitimately faked out the Bears protection. Chicago defensive again Jonathan Owens — aka Mr. Simone Biles — bit on the faux, and it left Sam LaPorta with sufficient house to interrupt free and rating.
Ben Johnson at all times has a brand new play up his sleeve. The Bears at all times discover artistic methods to embarrassing themselves. Chicago followers are clamoring for the group to rent Johnson as its new head coach within the offseason, however for now he’s doing simply nice operating circles round them with Detroit.
