The Packers’ proposal to ban Tash’s push was not voted at the League meeting, but the president of the packers, Mark Murphy, seems confident that Tash’s push will be released from the NFL this season.
Murphy said in a video Released by the team he believes that there is enough support for a rule against the rush runners to adopt next month.
“I think it found itself in a good place,” said Murphy. “We ended up drawing it, but we had a very good discussion, we talked a little about our safety concerns about the room, just the style of the room, but a good interaction with the league and therefore it will be deposited – then what we are going to do is voted in the May meeting and so we are going to go in 2005, the league made the rule that I could not go and therefore The language that was optimistic. I think there are enough people who look at him and say that it is really not good for the game, it’s more a rugby game than a football game, I go back to what was the rule. “”
Murphy referred to the most famous sneak quarterrier in the history of the NFL, by Bart Starr in the Ice Bowl of 1967, and how the packers run back Chuck Mercein raised his hands in the air While falling into the battery behind Starr, not to celebrate the touch but to demonstrate to the officials that he did not push Starr in the goals, which would have been a penalty at the time.
“In the Ice Bowl, the hit of Bart Starr, speaking to Chuck Mercein, many people thought that when he raised his hands he pointed out a touchdown, but he showed that he did not push Bart Starr,” said Murphy.
If Murphy’s favorite change in the Packers will raise their hands to celebrate that Eagles will no longer have one of the most effective short distance parts in the NFL.
