That incredibly awful play the Colts ran on Sunday night against the Patriots got the Tecmo Bowl treatment and it’s fantastic
Sunday night when the Indianapolis Colts took on the New England Patriots, we were treated to maybe what was the dumbest play in the history of the great game of football. The Colts lined up on fourth down and executed, mistakenly or not, the absolute worst fake attempt in the complete history of fake attempts. Since that moment, they have become the butt of every internet joke, yet some are better than others.
Now, that being said, there were some people out there that, after they saw the play happen and let it process for a second, likened it to something they might see in one of the first football video games to hit the market, Tecmo Bowl. That was spot on.
So, naturally, it was only right that someone would actually recreate the entire play and have a little fun with it in the process by using actual Tecmo Bowl graphics. The result of this is just downright tremendous.
That totally sums up all of the stupidity that we saw on Sunday night with this play, especially the part right at the beginning where it asks if you even want to call it in the first place. You know, because this is something that someone definitely should have asked in real life.
