Why don’t more teams do the Tush Push?

We all know it’s a copycat league, I’m just surprised other teams haven’t tried it. It’s annoying if you’re the opposing team, but it’s very effective in short yardage. Or have other teams tried it?

They do. And it cost the Bills a spot in the Super Bowl

The bills had a higher success rate with it last year than the eagles

But the bills is more of a traditional sneak to be honest

How many teams have a quarterback that can squat over 600 pounds?
That’s a big part of it.

Sirianni may have just got his own teams best play outlawed next season by doing it four times in a row

It received 22 of the 24 needed before this season. This could possibly piss off some that voted the other way. Never know but I wouldn't be surprised to see it banned next year.

I think it’s a pretty good chance it gets banned next year. People are just now realizing how much the Eagles get away with false starts on the play

They false start like every other time they do it. The guard did it twice tonight already.

Everybody who tries it gets called for false start besides the Eagles. That's why it will be banned or be "a point of emphasis" next year eventually phasing it out of the game

That’s where GB failed, everyone thought it was just sour grapes “we’ll stop the play pussies!”

They should have come with more footage of officials completely unable to officiate the play

The eagles run it too much. 1/2nd goal there is no reason to run it when you pay a rb to take those hits. When hurts get injured, they’ll start asking questions. It’s a great 3rd/4th and one but they run it too much
