1972 New York Jets' Big Play

"With a quarterback like Joe Namath and a receiver like Don Maynard (on the right side), the Jets can exert tremendous pressure. One of Namath's favorite ploys is to get Maynard one-on-one with the cornerback.
Such is the case where Maynard, with his good speed and deceptive moves, drives down on the cornerback, forcing him to backpedal, and then makes a sharp outside break."

-Jim Benagh, The Complete Handbook of Pro Football, 1972 Edition
