It was right before the end of the third quarter. Zach Moss had just been stuffed at the Cincinnati Bengals’ 39-yard line on a 3rd-and-1, setting up a 4th-and-1. This came right after the Philadelphia Eagles had scored a touchdown on the previous drive to go up by seven points.
What happened next started an avalanche that only the final whistle could end. Head coach Zac Taylor opted to go for it, and the play amounted to wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase running back and forth in motion to eventually running out for a screen pass two yards behind the line of scrimmage.
