At a recent NFL meeting, a heated debate erupted over the controversial 'tush push' play, particularly led by Philadelphia Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie. Concerned about its potential ban, Lurie passionately defended the play, equating its success to a dream scenario for the Eagles. He argued that an attempt to ban the play would not only undermine the team's strategy but also put quarterbacks at risk. Following Lurie's remarks, tensions rose as league executive Troy Vincent reprimanded him for an inappropriate analogy, highlighting the divided sentiments among NFL executives regarding the play's future.
"He pulled out all the stops... He knew he needed to throw a Hail Mary."
"Lurie... said that it was a 'win-win' for the Eagles, adding that it was 'like a wet dream for a teenage boy' to create a play that was so successful..."
"Whoever voted to ban the play would be taking liability for putting quarterbacks at risk."
"Vincent chastised the Eagles owner for the 'wet dream' analogy..."
