Chip Kelly coming to Philly after all.

Chip Kelly coming to Philly after all.

Yeah what happened there? I thought he said he was staying at Oregon?

[RyanGT]

Chip Kelly coming to Philly !! Yippee!!

Not really sure what to expect but it's about time some change is happening around here!

I just hope this doesn't mean Vick is staying..

[Shibby]

I don't know what to expect either as I don't know anything about college football.

His Oregon teams have always had amazing offenses. Very explosive players. I don't know all the specifics but from what I've seen, he's always had an athletic, running style QB but one who can still throw the ball rather well..which makes me think Vick could be back season and I'm really not sure I like that idea.

Kelly is an innovator on the offensive side of the ball. In college he'd have so many plays run, so quickly that the defense was A:LWAYS on their heels.

Even Bill Belicheck called Chip Kelly earlier this season to ask him about his offense and how he got his team to run so many offensive plays.

Like I said, I don't know how well he'll translate to the NFL but I'm certainly excited. After last season, there's really no where to go other than up!

Chip Kelly is great as a college coach. Although his style doesn't fit the NFL. Although he could prove me wrong. He uses a lot of option to win. He's great at running with that scheme but that doesn't translate to the NFL well.

[RyanGT]

We will definitely need a strong Defensive Coordinator to handle the defense..Don't think Kelly is too good with the defensive side.

[Shibby]

Does he run the ball? I really don't want to see McCoy getting less than 20 touches a game.


Rumors of Lovie Smith for DC.

Yeah Chip ran the ball at Oregon more than anything else.

And I've heard that if Lovie doesn't get a head coaching job, he's going to the sit this year out because Chicago still owes him next years full salary so he can sit out and still get paid.

That seems like the best idea to me too

[Shibby]

Well I'm on board then. Quite frankly, anyone would have been better Andy. I love him for the early-mid 2000s but it was getting stale and a change has been needed for a while.

Agree 100%

I just hope they don't keep Vick. He turns the ball over way too much and can't read a defense for his life.

[DeviousOne]

If vick leaves philly I wonder where he would go? I would guess the redskins

[John25]

with RG3 there no chance, KC however!!

But the Redskins already have 2 rookie quarterbacks better than Vick lol.

[ps3freak18]

With a good DC i think Kelly could thrive but there will definitely be a big learning curve for him.

[Shibby]

All these other "head coach" interviews that ESPN has been banging on about have probably been DC interviews. Lovie and Gus. Though idk if Gus would leave Seattle without a promotion.

That's what I think will happen as well. I'm not expecting too much this year out him, actually I hope next year they're are in position to draft Johnny Football.

He'd be perfect for the Chip Kelly offense.

[admartian]

I think McCoy can be used in a Chip Kelly offense. I'm sure he'll find something creative with Shady.

[The Boy From School]

@ Chicago hiring from the CFL.

The Pats will be without Gronk vs Baltimore. That's huge.

Yes. I have high hopes for Johnny Manziel. He just has something special about him. I agree with you, Chip Kelly could probably turn him into an nfl star.
