That's what it's called -- the football card pictures of a ballcarrier with one leg in the air, straight-arming an imaginary would-be tackler. At least that's what it's called on this site. I can't find any other reference to it on Google or in Wikipedia.
If it's not called the "ol' huck 'n' buck" -- it damned well should be. I suspect that after Google indexes this page, the pressure to call it the "ol' huck 'n' buck" will be unstoppable. (The pose, that is. I think Google's name is still safe.)
There are three pages of quality huckness 'n' buckitude. Or photos of the rejects from a Bolshoi Ballet audition. The link to the next is at the centre-bottom of each page (it's hard to see, but lights up when you hover your cursor over it).

That pose by Gifford is the classic "Heisman Trophy" pose.
Later in his professional career, Gifford's pose would be shaped by an awesome "Bindside" by the Eagles' Chuck Bednarik.
Not to be outdone, some thirty odd years later, Frank would be forever immortalized by the emasculating "Kathy Lee Nut Chop".
Hail To The Redskins!
