Ban the Tush Push Play

[Syracusecards]

I can’t stand Sirianni. he is still acting like Gannon should be indebted to him for the rest of his life. he is such a pompous ass.

"We'll see how it goes," Sirianni told NFL Media on Sunday. "All I will say about it is [Jonathan] Gannon, [Shane] Steichen and [Kellen] Moore better vote for it. They are in the [head coach] position right now because of that play. So all three, I better have those three votes right there and the Eagles' vote. I at least know we have four."

#Bills HC Sean McDermott says being “proactive” on banning the tush push to prevent injuries, even if the data is not there now, is the best way to proceed: “We’re going to always act in a way that’s best for the health and safety of the players.”

The fact that the debate on banning the tush push was tabled indicates it may be discussed again at the May meetings. And could be pushed forward once more support is gathered

Sources: There were 16 teams who were in favor of banning the tush push. That’s 8 short of the amount needed for the proposal to pass.

They will take this up at the May meeting. I’m hearing the ban supporters are gaining momentum. If the Players’ Association endorses it, it will likely pass.

Everyone knows how I feel about the stinking eagles, but this is nothing short of a witch-hunt and shows weakness by the owners asking it to be banned. If they ban it fine, (I really don't care one way or the other personally) but all of this plea copping by the dissenters is embarrassing. Where is the data that shows a possible medical issue? They wouldn't be complaining if their own teams ran it as efficiently as the eagles do. I really can't stand Goodell and this league sometimes.

I hate the Eagles, but I agree, it seems unfair to penalize them for being good at something currently legal.

On the tush push, what does Roger Goodell want?

Whenever someone asks about the longtime hammerlock Rich McKay has had on the Competition Committee, the answer is simple.
