The UFL is just two games into its first season, but it’s already produced some of the greatest moments in football history. In a game where the San Antonio Brahmus upset his DC Defenders 27-12, Brahmus head coach Wade Phillips (yes, you read that right) called the biggest fake field goal known to man. Ta. Because it was the center that scored.
No, not the long snapper who was in the middle of the line, but the center who snapped the ball on every offensive play during the Brahmas win.
This is a very impressive design that can hide who the target is and allows C Alex Mollet to run free into the middle of the field with a late release. After a shift and a snap of the ball, no one saw Mullett zip his way to the middle of the field, and the rest is big man history.
Doing this in 4 and 11 days is also incredibly bold, and requires considerable processing work by P. Brad Wing to arrive at what Phillips called the third reading in the play. was. Mollet is not even supposed to receive the ball! Wing said on the sideline after the play that his wheel route to the tight end was supposed to be the only read, but he improvised and made himself a UFL legend.
This is why we come to UFL. At a moment like this, play like this. This is the beauty of soccer. More touchdowns from big men, please.
