Its hard to tell whether it was actually a fake, but under similar circumstances in NCAA rules, that would be illegal.
I'm a big Eagles fan. I remember it vividly as Buddy Ryan said it was payback to Tom Landry for something that happened in one of the Replacement games during the strike. But now that I'm looking at it again it doesn't appear Cunningham actually faked going to the ground.
