When Hurts takes the snap, the offensive line surges forward and Hurts gets a big push from behind for a super-powered quarterback sneak. Basically, Hurts lines up under center Jason Kelce with two or three players behind him. The “tush push” or “brotherly shove” is considered by many in NFL circles to be the most unstoppable play in the league when the Eagles run it. “I don’t think he feels pain when he gets hit, even though we’re going to try - legally.” “They play violent, they play aggressive, they’ve got a quarterback who is super strong in terms of creating leverage,” Saleh said. In other words, the Jets’ defense is preparing to stop Hurts - and make him hurt a little in the process. “But if the quarterback carries the ball, we’ve got to give him 11 kisses and figure out a way to do that.” “You’ve got to be sound, you’ve got to be disciplined, so we’ll do our best in that regard,” Saleh said Wednesday before smiling. And the Jets want to at least leave a mark if Jalen Hurts and the offensive line shove their way to a first down or touchdown. The Philadelphia Eagles’ “tush push” could make an appearance during the teams’ showdown Sunday at MetLife Stadium. (AP) - Robert Saleh and the New York Jets know it’s probably coming and it’s nearly impossible to stop.
