Why the Tush Push Matters to Sports Bettors:

First of all, if you are unaware of this play it is basically a Quarterback sneak where players push the Quarterback from behind in order to gain 1-2 yards. Last year’s Super Bowl Champs, the Philadelphia Eagles were very good at it converting a whopping 86% of their attempts in the last 3 years? Just by knowing that, you could see the effects it could have on conversions and ultimately scoring totals. 

The Controversial Vote on it Was Moved to Next Month: 

• Game Outcomes: Yes, this means NFL Money Lines, Spreads, and Game totals– probably the most popular bets in the United States. 
• Quarterback Prop Bets: Quarterbacks are getting more yardage, not just 1-2 yards at a time, but with each easy conversion they are getting 3 more yards.  This could have a significant effect on total yardage for players that benefit from this play, i.e. Jalen Hurts.
• Season-long Bets: The teams that benefit from this may see odds changes now and especially after the vote happens.  Keep your eyes peeled. 

If the tush push is banned look out for slightly adjusted lines this season, a recalibration of QB prop bets, and negatively impacted futures on teams that benefit from the tush push. 

How to take advantage of this.

Currently, it looks likely that the tush push may be banned, so there may be a dip in some lines after the vote and check to see if you can get favorable odds on teams and quarterbacks effected.
