Frankie Luvu desires tush push banned: “It’s sort of like

Early in the 4th quarter of the NFC National Championship between Philadelphia and Washington, Commanders linebacker Frankie Luvu was flagged three consecutive times for infringement as he attempted to stop the Eagles’ notorious “tush push” dip into the goal line.Luvu’s repeated fouls induced referee Shaun Hochuli to announce that the authorities would award a score if the fouls continued.The linebacker said later that he was simply trying

to time his dive, and he wanted to take his shot to safeguard in short yardage.Now, owners are once again expected to go over possibly banning the

play at the spring conference in Minnesota this week. What would Luvu like to see take place? “My personal viewpoint? I believe they ought to ban it,”Luvu stated in a Monday interview with NFL Network’s Great Morning Football.” However I understand the argument’s going to have to do with,’Hey, you guys need to stop it. Do not get us simply put yardage,’ and whatnot. “However it’s type of like a cheapo play. … That’s practically a scrum in rugby.

That’s how I type of take a look at it. And we’ve got to have a scrum, too, on the other side. An the scrum is, we have a cadence where we all go at when. It’s not like you hard count and this and that, where now you’re getting us– or myself– leaping over the pile believing that you’re going to snap the ball. That’s just my own individual opinion, and I’m going to leave it at that.”We’ll see if owners choose to prohibit the play or if it stays around for at least another season this week.
