What's your take on the Tush Push?

Other than the Washington game, I didn’t see any delays. 

Speaking of Washington, I draft Desmond Watson if nothing else for 2 games a year. Probably a late Day 3 pick or priority FA.

Sometimes in this play the QB is on top of the pile being pushed without his feet touching the ground.
So if you are allowed to help the runner with his feet off the ground then there are also more ways to help him which I'm sure would be against the rules if the Vikings did it.

That sequence was about as bullshit of reffing I have ever seen.

The D should have the option to play just like the offense.

I am guessing that there will be copycat calls by officials until the league puts them in their place,   or the league made  the call in the moment into the refs ear,  either way it was bull shit and further attempts to hamper the Ds ability to defend the play shouldnt be messed with....hell let em bring baseball bats and sling shots in against the eagles.

One reason it works so well for Philly is Hurts. The guy squats 550 lbs, same as Barkley. Hurts gets an explosive start after the snap. Of course the shoving puts it all together, but I don't think a play should be banned because it requires a freakishly athletic QB to carry it out.

It's like the old flying wedge, it's not blocking it's providing additional force to the ball carrier. Why can't you fumble forward or advance a fumbled?
