They are scheduled to vote on it this Wednesday. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know we\u2019re not very successful against it, I know that. But to be honest with you, I have not put much thought into it. It\u2019s been around for a while,\u201d Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst said at the combine, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nfl\/story\/_\/id\/43999371\/unidentified-nfl-team-submits-proposal-ban-tush-push\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">per ESPN.<\/a> \u201cWe\u2019ve used it in different fashions with our tight end [<a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/db\/tucker-kraft-178328\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Tucker Kraft<\/a>]. I think there will be a lot of discussions about it. I\u2019ve got to kind of look at some of the information as far as injury rates and things like that, but we\u2019ll see.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Eagles HC defends \u2018tush push\u2019 after Packers\u2019 ban proposal<\/p>\n<p>Eagles head coach <a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/db\/coach\/nick-sirianni-133213\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Nick Sirianni<\/a> defended the tush push after learning about the original ban proposal. \u201cI\u2019ve seen some of the stuff that it\u2019s an automatic play or that it\u2019s not,\u201d he said, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/news\/eagles-hc-nick-sirianni-defends-tush-push-after-proposal-to-ban-play-i-m-protective-of-it\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">per NFL.com<\/a>. \u201cWe work really, really [hard]. I almost feel a little insulted because we work so hard at that play. The amount of things that we\u2019ve looked into how to coach that play, the fundamentals. There\u2019s a thousand plays out there, but it comes down to how you teach the fundamentals and how the players go through and do the fundamentals. I can\u2019t tell you how many times we practiced the snap. We practice the play because it\u2019s not a play that\u2019s easy to practice, so there\u2019s different ways we figured out how to practice it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a little insulting to say we\u2019re good at it, so it\u2019s automatic,\u201d Sirianni added. \u201cWe work really hard at it. You see it throughout the league. I mean, we saw it in the championship games that a team failed at it and ultimately didn\u2019t end up winning the game because of it. Every week, I watch every first-and-goal red-zone fail, every single time. Sometimes that first-and-goal starts at the 1(-yard line), and you see the team not be able to get in because they\u2019re not able to do that. I think it\u2019s a skill that our team has because of the players that we have, the way the coaches coach it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Green Bay Packers have submitted a revised proposal for the tush push ban ahead of the NFL\u2019s&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":64218,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2068],"tags":[25,7,20229,6,2123,242,109,20230,2476,1601],"class_list":{"0":"post-64217","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-philadelphia-eagles","8":"tag-eagles","9":"tag-football","10":"tag-green-bay-packers-green-bay","11":"tag-nfl","12":"tag-pa","13":"tag-philadelphia","14":"tag-philadelphia-eagles","15":"tag-philadelphia-eagles-philadelphia","16":"tag-philadelphiaeagles","17":"tag-wi"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/114538725244552903","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64217","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=64217"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64217\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/64218"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=64217"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=64217"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=64217"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
