I'm so tired of Chip Kelly. I'm tired of Michael Vick. I'm tired of Chip Kelly. I'm tired of the I-95 mafia, and i'm tired of Chip Kelly.
I'm tired of seeing Sal Palantonio and i'm tired of Chip Kelly.
Now they're 1 and 2. Maybe we will see less of them for a while.
Did i mention i'm tired of Chip Kelly?

(49,533 posts)1) Michael Vick is a turnover machine. Did KC get ANY points that didn't come off a Philly turnover?
2) The "blur" offense doesn't work as well against NFL defenders who are ready for it. Nor does it execute as well when you don't have a team full of 19, 20, 21-year-olds with limitless energy.
Now #2 could change as the season progresses, and in the next few years if Kelly re-molds the team with faster, younger players. But at the moment, it's all hype. Philly fans deserve all the suffering they get.

By the way, none of this is anything new. Google "jim kelly buffalo bills".

(16,113 posts)of your recruiting, in the NFL, talent is distributed more evenly. The "blur" is great for running up the score on mediocre college teams, though, so good news if Philly manages to get Temple or Boston College on the schedule.

(64,852 posts)My biggest problem is that no coach is ever going to succeed in the NFL when they believe that their system sacrosanct. There is no such thing as a system in the NFL.
The best coaches ALWAYS adapt their precious system to the players. Chip Kelly is not one of them.

(56,177 posts)whatever he said was considered gospel truth, and he's used to that...not gonna happen in Philly or any NFL city...he's gonna find out soon enough...I'm sure after last night the questions are only going to mount! Good!
