NFL: Eagles should've been penalized for a false start on a tush-push conversion vs. the Chiefs
NFL officials highlighted a missed false start penalty on Eagles guard Tyler Steen during a key third-and-1 play in Week 2, despite Philadelphia leading 20-10.
- On Thursday, the NFL acknowledged in a training video that the Philadelphia Eagles should have been penalized for at least one false start on the tush push in Week 2, highlighting Tyler Steen's missed call in the third quarter with 5:34 left.
- In context, the league issued guidance after Ramon George used a 19-minute training video to explain policing of the tush push, stating, `Anytime we have this situation we׳re in short yardage, we know we want to make sure that we officiate these plays—the offensive team has to be perfect in every aspect,' George said, as the play polarized fans last year.
- The tape illustrated the tush-push on a 3rd-and-1 with 5:29 left in the fourth quarter and flagged missed calls on Jordan Mailaita for holding and a Saints backward-pass fumble against Arizona.
- The league sent the tape to all 32 teams' leaders this week, distributing it to head coaches and general managers as it aims to tighten officiating of short-yardage shove plays.
- Officials were told to watch for early O-line movement as Ramon George used the clip to show what officials should look for and instructed to call quarterback sneak and tush push plays "tight" going forward.
