NFL reporter Peter King called on the league to outlaw the quarterback sneak after the Philadelphia Eagles had tremendous success on the play in the 2022 season.
, and because of how automatic the play is, former NFL vice president of officiating Dean Blandino said he thinks the league is going to discuss the matter this offseason and"I'd be shocked if they don't make a change."
"I was talking to [Denver Broncos head coach] Sean Payton during Sunday’s game, and he said we’re going to do this every time next season if they don’t take it out,’"Jalen Hurts, #1 of the Philadelphia Eagles, scrambles against the Kansas City Chiefs after Super Bowl LVII at State Farm Stadium on Feb. 12, 2023 in Glendale, Arizona.
"It amounts to a rugby scrum. The NFL wants to showcase the athleticism and skill of our athletes. This is just not a skillful play. This is just a tactic that is not an aesthetically pleasing play, and I think the competition committee is going to take a look at it.""If you remember on field goals and extra points, they used to be able to push the defensive linemen into the formation," Blandino added."You would find the weak link on the offensive line.
Blandino says the easy solution is simply ban pushing the ball-carrier, a move that actually had been illegal up until 2005, but it would require some work. Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts, #1, sneaks the ball into the end zone for a touchdown during Super Bowl LVII between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, Feb. 12, 2023 at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona."[Outlawing it] on sneaks is easy,’’ he said."The downfield stuff, you just put the tape together, show it to the officials, and you just start calling it. That’s the key. To desensitize it, you’ve got to throw flags.
