Philadelphia Eagles<\/a> left tackle Jordan Mailata<\/a> has had enough of the media narrative that his team won Sunday’s Super Bowl rematch against the Kansas City Chiefs<\/a> because of the tush push.<\/p>\n

In an interview with 94 WIP on Philadelphia on Tuesday<\/a>, Mailata said that it is “incredibly disrespectful” to the impact the Eagles’ defense and special teams had in the 20-17 victory at Kansas City.<\/p>\n

“I understand the outrage [over the tush push]. What I don’t understand is them using it as an excuse to why we won the game. I think it’s incredibly disrespectful to our defense and our special teams who balled out. And my brothers on defense and special teams who balled out that game, who had our backs when we weren’t moving the ball or weren’t doing anything,” Mailata said.<\/p>\n

“That pisses me off because we give so much to this game and to kind of base off a short-yardage play, that is a football play,” Mailata added, his voice raising. “And say that we won the game off that, but not how our defense played and not how our special teams have played, putting us in those positions. You know I think it’s bullcrap.<\/p>\n
