The sneaky kick cooked up by Greg Zuerlein and John Fassel that won the Cowboys the game

It rolled and rolled and rolled. So slowly, yet no one bothered it on its path. It was if that oblong object had Jedi powers fooling the players into believing that this was not the ball they were looking for. Once it completed its slight turn upfield and passed the 10-yard mark, perfection had been attained.

The Dallas Cowboys used one of the most unusual onside kicks you’ve ever seen to come back and beat the Atlanta Falcons 40-39. Instead of putting it on a tee and pounding it into the ground in order to bounce it high in the air, Greg Zuerlein put it flat on the ground and almost putted it on its way.
