Chip Kelly. Any Questions? (merged--put your "Chip Kelly" thoughts in here)

If there is any justice in the world, this thread will be stickied and remembered for all eternity.

He's a trojan man.

 

Too much heat there. He won't go anywhere he has to recruit cleanly.

[Big Weirdo]

Matt Barkley lol

[KingGibbs]

Eagles were like 2nd in the league in total offense two weeks ago and the wheels have fallen off.  I know they are down to their 3rd QB but I've never seen offensive ineptitude like this since the Kotite years.  It is simply amazing how bad the offense has become, literally overnight.

I swear they had a shot of Kelly yesterday on the sideline and it looked like he was saying to himself. "I knew I ****ed up by letting them convince me to take the job."

[Westbrook36]

I think, taking the normal trash talking and vindication that comes from division smack talk, it is obvious that the Kelly offense, or any offense in general, needs very good decisive QB play.  Barkley has been an abomination.  Kelly's offense is creating space and potential for big plays, just as it had done over the first 6 weeks of the season.  Unfortunately, for Kelly and Eagles' faithful, the QB he needs is not on the roster.  Foles had so many big plays against the Cowboys staring him in the face and he just couldn't make the plays.  Vick was a shell of himself yesterday.  Barkley is Barkley.  I will agree that the call to pass on the First and Goal from the 2 is curious at best.  You have a top 3 NFL RB and a minute to run the ball four times, if necessary.  But, these decisions are always easy in hindsight.

The call on the goalline was an abortion of a call. On the 2 yard line with lots of time left he had his 3rd string right-handed QB rollout to his left.

 

The team only once went hurry-up. His 4th down decisions were peculiar at best, as was his onside kick call. Chip looks like he is losing trust in his own philosophy and trying to create sparks out of nothing.

[Big Weirdo]

The call at the goal line was questionable. You hand the ball to Shady there even if the run wasn't working. You put the ball in your playmakers hands.

[Commander PK]

Chip Kelly is a genius and his system was devised from God's mind.  This much is obvious. 

 

"The lord giveth and he taketh away."

 

"FATHER!!!!!!! Why have you forsaken me??!!"

you realize you are preaching to the choir with this insight on a redskins message board. have you seen the list of QBs we've had over the last 20 plus years?

 

probably why we are enjoying this thread so much. you could see the trainwreck coming from miles away........

 

[Big Weirdo]

Nick Foles is starting. My eye is twitching with anticipation.

How loyal will Lurie be to Foles in terms of franchise QB?

[Big Weirdo]

Are you asking if Lurie thinks Foles can be a franchise QB?

I don't know. What has Foles done to prove he is worth that commitment. I don't even know why I'm answering this because it's so absurd to think about right now.

Its USC, He sees Oregon rolling without him. I'm sure the idea of having athletes faster than most other teams again is tempting and also would get a crack at his old team. I think its over 50/50 he rolls.

[TradeTheBeal!]

He's catchin that midnight train to Georgia.  The NFC East was too much for the man...

[Ozymandias]

The funny thing about that is he has a chance to win the NFC east, cause our division is garbage lol

Ho hum, good QB play and Kelly's offense is the best in the NFL. Who would your average NFL GM pick right niw to build their team around....Nicky Foles or RG3? Serious question. Foles has as many TD passes in three starts as RG3 has all year. Cant wait for the annointed one to end the Skins season next week.

Oh, sixth TD pass for Foles. The best young QB in the NFL.

[grego]

in here awful early this week, westy. how odd.

Good to see we are not at risk of losing you on a covert operation this week Westy.

 

The Raiders look like we do in Week 1: completely unprepared for the Kelly offense.

[Westbrook36]

How awesome would it be if Foles set the all time single game TD record?

[Westbrook36]

7.

[Warhead36]

Never thought I'd see Nick Foles in the record books with Peyton Manning.

[grego]

this is not your best moment. a little restraint wouldve been wise. but, what can we realistically expect?

 

but, congrats on beating the raiders. 

 

i say again. congrats on beating the raiders.

[Westbrook36]

Raiders had a very good defense all year long....until they met Chip Kelly and Nick Foles.

[Warhead36]

It's amazing how ill prepared the Raiders are/were. I mean at least we had an excuse since we played them in Week 1 when there was no film, the Raiders should have played much better. You wanna talk about bad coaching, THAT is bad coaching.

 

Chip's offense works when the QB plays well. Like, you know, every NFL offense in history.
