Chiefs' Super Bowl LIX loss to the Eagles comes with a silver lining that the rest of the NFL could soon come to appreciate

Super Bowl LIX will be remembered for the Philadelphia Eagles preventing the Kansas City Chiefs from achieving the NFL's first three-peat.

The Chiefs were dominated from bell-to-bell, falling by a 40-22 final score. That game may also be remembered as the last time the Eagles were allowed to run their infamous "tush push" play.

The "tush push" is similar to a quarterback sneak, except Philadelphia lines up a tight end and running back behind the QB, who helps push him forward. That is what has made the play so controversial, and has led to the NFL voting on whether or not to ban it from use.

The Green Bay Packers were the franchise that ultimately proposed that the "tush push" be banned, citing that their is no real skill involved in executing the play. The Packers, and others, feel that it is unfair that offensive players can help push their teammates forward, but defensive players can't.

Injury risks have also been a cause for concern. League owners will vote on Green Bay's proposal to banish the "tush push" on Wednesday. If it is banned, the rules will revert to what they were before 2006, when the NFL quietly allowed pushing back in 2006 because officials rarely penalized it.

The Chiefs could be the last team in league history to face the polarizing play. Philadelphia scored a touchdown on it during the first quarter of Super Bowl LIX. Trying to find a unique way to stop the "tush push," Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones lined up sideways across from the center. It didn't work, and Jones injured his neck in the process. The Eagles will travel to K.C. for a Week 2 regular season matchup in 2025, and will very likely have to attempt to stop the play if it survives the vote.
