The tush push is the most controversial play in the NFL by a wide margin. The Philadelphia Eagles have utilized it for several seasons, and it has become as polarizing as any play or strategy in recent NFL memory.
After their Week 2 win over the Kansas City Chiefs, a video went viral of what appeared to be the Eagles jumping early on the tush push. This only added gasoline to the fire on talks of needing to ban the play. Those talks aren't going anywhere after the latest touchdown.
The Eagles scored a touchdown to open the scoring against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 3, and they got in position to do so after a tush push play - only it was very evident that the Eagles got away with a false start.
The #Eagles ran a tush-push.

It looks like an OL (#56) jumped early.
No flag was thrown.

As Ari Meirov pointed out, the topic of conversation isn't going away when it comes to talks of banning the play.
