Biadasz may be the least stout of all the Cowboys offensive linemen so running behind him when you have signaled to the defense by your formation that is where you are going is foolish. Tyler and Tyron both got push on that play but unfortunately Biadasz got shoved backwards and Dak had not room to go forward. I didn't like the push by the two RB either. It was weak. That play works for the Eagles because they have Travis Kelce who is a perennial all-pro because he actually deserves it.
Maybe we could add a twist by pushing to the left side of the center.

Well when egirls do it they seem to snap the ball and dive at the defensive linemen’s knees or even lower. Surprised nobodies been hurt.

It's BS if they eliminate a play that only one team can execute.

And I hate the Eagles.
It has nothing to do with the Eagles. Every commentator calls it an ugly looking play. It was brought up in the offseason as possibly being banned. They've already said it will be looked at next off-season.

Has to be the worse executed Tush Push I have ever seen. Not impressed. Do better McCarthy. This was so BAD.



so you blame mccarthy for the players not executing a play?? it's the players you either are successful or you're not... in my opinion teams are lining up to stop this easy show it than have the qb and the 2 push men go wide for RPO noting but space outside should get you a few yards with keeper or a pitch.., first team i'd show that on is the eagles themselves.. that D line and the way their egos will be to stop their play , okie doke!~!,.might go for 6!

That's an auto fumble. Never reach the ball out in a sneak situation, maybe a goal line situation since crossing it ends the play. You reach the ball out on a sneak like that and you have more hands than you can handle swatting at the football.
And no way to prove you were down before the ball came out.

Lol why? Because we can't execute it?
Personally, I don't like it because the ball is too often obscured by bodies. There's no way to tell if the ball crossed the line before the carrier was down. It also seems dangerous for both sides.

I have no problem with it whatsoever !

maybe defenses need to have their own version of tush push crowd right back on the other side of the ball ?

they should have kept the deuce and had the guys push him so hard that they basically throw him over for a first down.
That's my idea !! LOL I've been saying we should have Steele and Martin as Fullbacks and Deuce as the TB. Pitch to Deuce and when he approaches those guys they just grab him by the waist and feet and capapult him over the line of scrimmage. As long as it simulates a "push", its legal.

Hopefully, he would not get too high up, or he might drop a deuce.

Scratch that play from the playbook, don't do what everyone else does, we need to be more innovative on the offensive play calling, that's how we can stay ahead of the game!

LEAVE it to Philly, I've got so many questions about this, I wonder how they did it in practice, it must have worked somehow so they said let's use it in a game
I think their former Rugby player now O lineman suggested it
