Probably worked more for Sanders because he was 5'8" ... defenders are typically 6'1 and taller

Plus Barry player shorter than he was by staying low to the ground when making cuts and jukes.
Similar to Ray Rice

Just a thought, what the heck does a "head fake" look like in an actual football game, and how in the world can it be anything but funny to view with a big arse helmet on?

Only thing I could dig up an this imaginary "head fake" was a lecture that briefly mentions it by somebody named Randy Pausch.



in HS ball, lots of backs headfake.

it actually works too

Here are a few decent examples of what could be considered head fakes

By soon to be one of the greatest running backs of all time... and this coming from a Barry Sanders fan

AP (ALL DAY.... and he earned and copyrighted his name last season)

Key markers

00:40
00:54
08:55 (BEST ONE IMO, W/SPIN FOR EXTRA EFFECT)

Did all this on a repaired leg, can't wait til the season starts


Best examples of the so-called head fake...

If anyone can find more, post them
