Ban this stupid tush push

If I wanna watch rugby I'll watch rugby.

So boring 

Don't let your opponent get to your 1 yard line 

@johanndemann

 3 yard line...

3rd and 2 

4th and 2 

Anywhere...doesn't matter yayyy I didn't even physically see the ball and they got a td.

U only ban it if every team can execute it like that

Worse is when the o line can false start majority of the time and it’s never called  because it’s almost impossible to tell 

Should’ve been a False Start smh

They do get away with false starts on brotherly shove

It’s the worst play in football. The NFL won’t do anything until someone gets hurt (which should be easy to execute, in theory.)

Football is just modified rugby tho. Need to get rid of field goals and extra point kicks 

It's already banned on special teams, they call it leveraging. And it was implemented for "player safety"

But if it helps get first downs, which equals more points, player safety be damned. 

Gotta love the hypocrisy 

competition committee will do something if they get to 3 superbowls in 4 years IMO.  This is a league of parity. Eventually it will be banned for the exact reason that nobody else can do it. 

@Unplug

 I agree. Not sure why so many people are ok with. If they don’t ban it I’d like to think teams would start becoming good at it too. Watching kc butcher that 4th and 1 was painful 

Whatever strategy philly uses on their tush push other teams need to figure it out too. I remember Patriots and Brady used to have a pretty good QB sneak

what I hate about the play is Philly gets away with a shit ton of false starts when they do it 

Let me see if I understand you. If someone gets hurt they should ban the tush push?

What happens when someone gets hurt on any other play? LOL Do we ban all plays where someone gets hurt.

Ridiculous. 

Exactly,   takes away from the spirit of football.   Should be Mano o Mano Football with NO pushing your ass from behind to give you an unfair advantage

 Even when the false start penalties are obvious they don’t seem to call it on the Eagles…

Pretty smart to  keep milking this thing if you are the Eagles…

Who’s gonna win? I’m jogging up to the Hollywood park sign

I think it helps that Hurts can squat 500 lbs

Dunno if I should take ATL halftime ML to hedge my 2.5 with Minny idk

@undermysac

 Yea philly's oline chops down and takes out the dlinemen's legs then Hurts just churns his way forward for at least 1 yard everytime 

I hate it. I hate watching it. I hate it's auto matic....like wtf is the point.

Like it's more automatic than an extra point...but it's ugly, not exciting, I don't even see the ball...

@Unplug

 You saw the ball on the review that they called no td? It was clearly fully over the line
