idk what tape has to do with it. It’s not exactly a trick play or trick formation that you need to identify on tape. You seen it once then you know what it is
there's soemthing different about their tush push as they are the ones that execute successfully more than any other team.
from bing ai bot: " Last season, the Eagles had a success rate of 93.5% when running the “Tush Push.” This year, the success rate remains well above 90% and the play is a staple of the Eagles offense 12. The league’s 31 other teams have attempted 55 “Tush Push” plays. Of those attempts, 40 were considered a success for a success rate of 72.7% 3."
In fairness one of those times they stopped it was on a no call with the defender literally pulling Hurts backwards by his face mask. Buffalo applied the technique best 3 weeks ago where they got Josh low every time and with a tremendous amount of forward push. What they been doing since with the 1 pusher and Josh immediately attempting to go up and over hasn't really looked the same. Or been as effective. Regardless, I think it (rightfully) gets banned in the offseason with enough teams visibly doing it now as it has has no real place in NFL football imo. They are already handicapping the defense enough everywhere they can as is without allowing cheesy one-way-only rugby crap and sucking all the potential fun/anticipation out of a large majority of it's "and 1" plays.
Maybe I missed something, but I thought this was illegal . . . ? Or used to be . . . ? When I saw it start happening fairly often this year, I didn't know it was suddenly OK to do. The Cheats used to do it all the time and wouldn't get flagged. Someone else would do it, they'd get flagged. What gives? Serious question.
Seems like an easy play to ban. The competition committee could cite "safety concerns" fans dont really wanna see a million QB sneaks anyway
First of all, you need a competent offensive line to try the play. Second of all, Kelce was a huge factor in the play working. Third of all, anything that makes sense and works for other teams, the Jets stay far away from.
We can’t do it with Rodgers or Wilson unfortunately. It’s not like teams with the smaller QBs do it. It is frustrating that it feels like we’re always at a disadvantage with shit like this though. Let a tightend do it?
The Jets invented the tush push... but as usual they got it backwards with Sanchez's head pushing the centers tush... I bet the league changes to rules to make this illegal starting next year.
It's gonna get banned. The whole "having teammates push from behind" thing. Although, when out in the field of play, seeing players rally to shove a RB or TE another 5-10 yards downfield is awesome! We had one like that. Maybe that's what we work on....our own mid-field tush push. Have the team rally every play to shove the ball another 5 yards down field! Having 400 pound Becton plowing in would easily shove the pile a few more yards. Let's get famous for it!
It worked for the Eagles because they had a Hall of Fame center and a dual threat QB. It's not a super play in general.
