Breaking:Chip Kelly to the eagles

[bucjoe]

Chip Kelly flip flops like Romney.

.....or Obama!  (See quotes re his statements re raising the Debt Ceiling when he was a senator vs now when he is President)

[Buc on the Move]

Damn, Chip Kelly seems primed for a career in politics.

[olafberserker]

Lol @ this guy. Don't see how teams can trust him to commit long term to a franchise.

Why not? It's called CYA, these guys are going to lie, just the nature of the business.
Once you reach the NFL though, you've hit the summit. It's not like college where a coach will leave a lower level team for a higher profile gig. Name me 1 NFL head coach that's voluntarily resigned from a job to go to another NFL team....it doesn't happen.

Didn't Belichek do that?

[Bucnaz24]

Well I guess u understand why.... That O has tons of speed for his system.

Obama has more lies under his belt than Clinton, and that's pretty bad. Also, destroying the 2nd amendment and staging events undercover to pass his way of thinking is complete BS too.

Kelly, like Obama, will bring a lot of expensive changes. The eagles ownership better be prepared to spend yet again. It's more about "faith" than trust at this point.

Should be enjoyable to watch as he installs his staff, roster and playbook.

The eagles forum has shat itself in confusion.

LOL

your an idiot

They had to get somebody like him. Anybody else and the fans would turn on him from the beginning. They could still do that with Chip knowing the fans up in Philly.

Agreed. But for the time being, he's going to have a few question mark players. At least for a season or two until he has enough time to form his team.

Honestly, Foles might well be their next starting QB. Think about it. Not everyone is going to get along with vick because of what he did, then there is his inability to stay healthy. They already are in a position where they will have to extend, or cut vick in the near future as well. Under limited showings foles seems to be a QB that could carry them. And he certainly couldn't play as bad as the team did as a whole this past season.

Plus, if he starts foles, he can still claim credit for seeing his talent/building him up. Funny, other coaches qb backups can be seen as the new coaches "guy" without too much argument from anyone.

Wow. Stay classy man.

Others have different opinions than you, and "idiot" is the best you could come up with? Way to think objectively.

Now, if you want to explain WHY I'm an idiot, that would, at the very least, be informative.

[Foedus]

It seems Chip Kelly is a fan of Nick Foles.  http://tucsoncitizen.com/wildcatreport/2011/09/25/oregon-coach-chip-kelly-on-nick-foles-i-watch-in-awe-sometimes/

[TBTrojan]

I can't see this hire producing "meh" results, they will be extreme.
I can't see any middle ground, it's either powerhouse or laughing stock.

[GameTime]

Pack your bags, Nick Foles.

Is he worth a project?

[TheAman]

Wait, you mean someone turned down a job, was offered more money by that job, and then decided to take it?  No way!
