The owner of the Eagles passionately defends Tash’s push game while the NFL debate continues

After the Eagles of Philadelphia won the Super Bowl of last season, the rest of the NFL decided that it was time to review the discussions on the team’s signature game, The Tash Push. There has been momentum to ensure that the game is fully prohibited during this week’s owners’ meetings, based on a health risk, despite the NFL data showing that no player has been injured by the game since it became popular. However, this momentum did not prove to be sufficient and the subject was deposited until the least May.

On Tuesday, the owner of the Eagles, Jeffrey Lurie, had the opportunity to take the position and defend the push of Tash as a fair player and not one who should not be prohibited. He certainly took advantage of it, making a long passionate defense of the reference game of his team in short meters situations; The main point of Lurie is that it is not a football hack but rather a game that requires the same level of competence and practice as the others.

“There is simply no data that shows that it is not a very, very sure game,” said Lurie. “If this was not the case, we would not push Tash’s push. First, it is a precision game. It is very practiced. We devote a lot of resources to the push of Tash. … It is a game which is available for all the other teams of the League. I think it has not been used more than five times by almost every team of the League. Although we were the previous year.

“For all of us who followed NFL football during the decades, there is a reflux and a flow to attack and defense … I never remember a prohibited room because only one team or some teams were running it effectively. As part of what I think most of us love football is the chess match.

This is a strong argument, and we hear a lot before the next referendum in May.
