The Colts Fake Punt Worked Perfectly, Except for the Brutal Dropped Pass
By Jason Lisk
Indianapolis had only -1 yards of total offense and already trailed Dallas by a touchdown when they dialed up a fake punt deep in their own territory with Dewey McDonald, the outside gunner, left uncovered.
It was open.
McDonald showed why he plays defensive back and not wide receiver. Ouch.
It took Dez Bryant one play to catch a touchdown the other direction.
