gimmick play

An offensive football play that involves trickery and deception, intended to give the offensive team an advantage by confusing the defense.

Gimmick plays are easy to defend against if the defense sees it coming, so they are only run once in a while.

Gimmick plays are also known as gadget plays.
The flea flicker, the halfback pass, and the double reverse are some examples of gimmick plays.

pc gimmick

A marketing strategy designed to enhance the perceived worth, attractiveness or virtue of a person, product or service by pairing it with a trendy "socially conscious" movement or concept.
By claiming they only used locally grown, organic produce whenever possible, they were able to get $15.00 for two tiny, nearly tasteless vegetarian tacos. This was an example of a pc gimmick at its finest.
