After the Super Bowl, tensions are rising as Nick Sirianni addresses the Green Bay Packers' controversial motion to ban the Tush Push. The Philadelphia Eagles' head coach is not holding back. Nick Sirianni has had very active days at the NFL Combine in Indianapolis.

The Green Bay Packers are proposing an end to the tush push play the Philadelphia Eagles have used so successfully at the goal line and in short-yardage situations.

The Philadelphia Eagles run the "Tush Push" essentially better than anyone, and run this version of the quarterback sneak the most in the league. The reason they run it so well isn't because it's automatic, which is why head coach Nick Sirianni defended the play on Tuesday amidst its detractors.

The play is fairly straightforward—two players push quarterback Jalen Hurts forward in a variation on the familiar quarterback sneak—yet it has inspired angst from fans and opponents alike. Now, the Green Bay Packers are reportedly spearheading a bid to ban it.
