Mike McCarthy and Cowboys coaches use Bill Belichick's new trick against him on fake

Well, that's how you beat the New England Patriots' edge rush on field goals.

The Patriots caused a stir when they unveiled a new wrinkle against the Miami Dolphins a couple weeks ago, having Brenden Schooler go in motion from the kicker's right before the snap. Then Schooler burst through and blocked the field goal. Everyone gushed about the play. NBC's Cris Collinsworth said every NFL and college team would be looking into adding it.

The Dallas Cowboys were thinking about a way to beat it. The Cowboys took a 16-3 lead in the second quarter on a defensive touchdown.
