So we're going to ban plays just because a team has perfected it?
Let's ban passing the football next because there are teams who have too good a QB.

Would they basically revert back to the old rules? Or were those NCAA only? Thinking of the Notre Dame - USC Bush Push that was illegal at the time but uncalled

Seems like they want to outlaw pushing the QB in those formations & not exactly a total blanket rule outlawing pushing/pulling players.
That makes it even dumber though imo.

"Hip drop and the tush push were in the same conversation three years ago," Vincent told Battista. "A year ago, we felt like let's just focus in on the hip-drop tackle, and the tush push, just say, hey, the Philadelphia Eagles, they just do it better than everybody else. But there are some concerns. Our health and safety committee has laid that out today with a brief conversation on the injury report. There's some challenges, some concerns that they'll share with the broader group tomorrow. But the tush push will become a topic of discussion moving into March."
Why are you taking a victory lap like you solved the hip-drop tackle? lol. the rule change didn't do shit last year. When I see defensive 'injuries' from the tush push it's usually not from the defenders who are directly in front of the QB. It's because of defenders trying to dive in from two positions down the line.

They don’t even call the hip drop tackle in game. They just let the league hand out fines after the fact.

I mean it is, no doubt, but him also being pushed unquestionably aids him as well.

Found out listening to Ray Didinger today that after this past season, it's the first time the Eagles have been over .500 in franchise history.
We're 2 wins over the threshold.

This is a strange story. He’s either going to be out for 8 weeks or going to “prove” he didn’t need surgery. Like, what are we doing here?

The shoulder is resolved. He’s just in recovery on that. It sounds like they found a stress fracture in his foot at the combine which is a new thing but now they’re saying that he’s been advised surgery isn’t necessary on that.
It sounds like he’s still on schedule to work out at his pro day which was always their plan.
