Eagles hire Chip Kelly as head coach

[Dr.Philly]

Get your Chips ready!!

As an Eagles fan I like the move. He will be a breath of fresh air after the walrus

[The Jokemaker]

An exciting move to say the least. My concern would be his focus and willingness to stay. He has been flaky about staying or going and that could spell trouble if he maintains that way, especially if the first season in Philly doesn't go well. It'd be a shame if he pulled a Petrino or Saban and bailed.

Somebody get this guy some Bi-Polar pills. Either sanctions are coming or he got vastly overpaid IMO as a first time anything NFL coach.

As a Browns fan I am actually happy about this. Good for the Eagles but seemed he was never fully committed to the move if it took this long so glad the Browns moved on and didn't wait for a guy where his heart might not have been 100% in the move. I expect him to fully embrace it now but something strange had to have happen for him just to flop this quickly.

Has all the pieces to run his kind of offense except for OL and QB. Skill position guys will flourish tho.

This is my biggest fear as well. Hopefully we can put up some W's in his first season

i dont see it. i think he is a gimmick coach that works great in college that will not translate to the nfl( eveyone on his team is faster that the rest of the country, wont be the same in the pro). if that is his base offense( maybe it wont) in the pros those guys are gonna drop by the end of the year. he needs to adjust. hope im wrong caus ei have nothing against him or the eagles. better find a hell of a Defensive cordinator.

Can't be any worse then the last 2 years......can it??

I can't wait to see the look on Jerry Jones' face when the Eagles torch the Cowboys for 60. Good hire by the Eagles.

Post of the year thus far great post

[WormBurner5]

Does Vick get another chance in this system? He'll take a major pay cut..

[goldenstater]

i do think Mccoy will thrive though!

well if it doesnt work it could set you back even longer but i guess in terms of record probably not i guess.

[sixer04fan]

Chip Kelly's team put up 62 points and 730 yards in one game against the Cowboys' new defensive coordinator this year. Just sayin... Monte Kiffin is ******** himself right now haha

[krazylegz]

so vick stays i take it??

[Dcup]

Where's Darron Thomas at now? Think they will bring him in along with Vick. What about Tebow????

I could honestly see Tebow doing well in Kelly's offense. He may not have the speed that Kelly desires but it could work.

Philadelphia is a far cry from New Hampshire, but I think he'll succeed.

I hate when gimmick coaches are brought in to coach in the nfl...

Bad move for my birds...

As for those wondering why he left Oregon...

Its all about the Benjamins....

Oregon tried to low ball him and he said screw that...

Our Lurie upped the ante and Oregon balked...

Sanctions have nothing to do with it....

Its about money
