Why is it that the Eagles aren't looking more strongly at Lovie Smith?

Probably because the Eagles want an offense. Also I'm not sure why they'd get rid of a coach who flames out in the playoffs most years only to bring in a coach who gets his team pretty close to making the playoffs most years.

I'd take Lovie as a DC anytime.

Gus Bradley intrigues me too because I dig that Hawks defense.

I like him too. If he shuts down RG3 today, moves right up to the top of my want list.

It's the Big East, dude. Nothing says "WOW!" quite like seeing UConn (sorry, DIO) on your home schedule. It's moot now that they're moving to the ACC, but still...

Browns apparently moving on from Kelly. Looking like Eagles or Ducks. What the farg?

Because his offenses suck, he could not build an OL or keep an OC?

Browns said to not like how Kelly has handled himself, which means he has strung them out too long. I wonder if the Browns are just leaking this out as a tactic.

Either way the Browns have lost out on Marrone while Banner got his beauty sleep and now out on Kelly.

This is Havas porn.

Since Schefter is saying Kelly has to decide I'm assuming he was offered the HC job?

QuoteAdam Schefter
So Cleveland is restarting its HC search while Chip Kelly must decide whether to go to Philadelphia or remain at Oregon.

The more I read about Gus Bradley the more I want him as the next HC.

Munson · January 06, 2013, 12:41:35 PM

Ugh yeah for whatever reason I'm not at all excited about Chip Kelly.

ice grillin you · January 06, 2013, 12:41:40 PM

sounds to me like kelly was staying at oregon the whole time...these interviews are an ego trip

PhillyPhreak54 · January 06, 2013, 12:49:08 PM

People mentioning on Twitter, and I had read this before, that Kelly really wants Carolina and Scam to be his bride. So he's stringing this out and will ultimately go back until Rivera is canned

Munson · January 06, 2013, 12:52:57 PM

Bruce Arians is in the hospital

Obviously, this is down to Oregon or Eagles for Chip Kelly, based on what we know. Majortiy of league folks believe Oregon. Decision soon.

I hope this is true and they're a better fit, but you have to wonder if Kelly wants to go back to Oregon for another year with the sanctions that are about to come down on the program.
