Banning the tush push required 24 owners votes. The Packers couldn’t recruit enough votes at the meetings in Palm Beach, Fla., in late March and early April, reportedly persuading only 15 other owners to go along with their cause, and the vote was shelved. But they felt more confident this time around and seemed to have momentum on their side.

In Minnesota, NFL owners voted on rule changes with multiple big-ticket items on the docket. The Super Bowl champions earned another win, and those who value divisional prominence should be satisfied by the final votes.

A proposal to ban the tush push, a play popularized by the Philadelphia Eagles, failed to pass at an NFL spring meeting Wednesday in Eagan, Minn.
