One play remaining, one yard from the end zone, one touchdown away from stealing a season-resuscitating victory.
And the Giants — who have an 85.7 percent success rate using the “Tush Push” with quarterback Daniel Jones — put the ball in the air. Tyrod Taylor, filling in for an injured Jones, threw a final-play incompletion and the Giants lost, 14-9, to the Bills.
There is little question what the Eagles — creators of the most controversial play in football — would have done in that situation: Aligned quarterback Jalen Hurts under center with a tight end and a running back tight on his wings, and snapped the ball as Hurts churned his legs with shoves from behind to gain additional force.
“The difference,” one offensive lineman whose team recently adopted a version of the play told Post Sports+, “is the Eagles have the best offensive line in the league.”
