Think about it. “Look,” Campbell might have said, “we’ve got a play in the game plan tonight that includes throwing a pass to a tackle. But here’s what we’re gonna do. We’ll be making it look like a different guy is reporting as eligible than the one who is really reporting as eligible, because we want to confuse the Cowboys about who is and isn’t eligible. So when that happens, go along with it, OK?”


This is an idiotic play from Dan Campbell, the ref still has to announce the eligible lineman which would erase the deception immediately.

The true “trick” behind the play was they sent #58 and #68 to report, and apparently Campbell had been saying in pressers for the past few weeks about getting #58 involved more and talking about his “good hands”

So assuming the Cowboys coaching staff was scouting they might have been on alert for #58, and then having the Cowboys hopefully mix up #58 and #68

#70 wasn’t even part of the trick play at all the official is just a lazy moron
