Eagles coach Nick Sirianni pushes back against proposal to ban the tush push

Philadelphia Eagles coach Nick Sirianni pushed back against the Green Bay Packers’ proposal to ban the tush push play his team has used so successfully in short-yardage situations, including during its victory over the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl 59.

Extremely embarrassing framing for the proposed change. I'm ok with banning the play but it would need to come with banning a push or pull from any offensive player at any position on the field.

I think it’s petty. There is nothing about the tush push that is unfair or any more dangerous than any other short yardage rushing play. If teams are worried about it, they should stop the offenses before they get close enough to run it.
