Random Eagles Information Still Not Worthy of a New Thread

[rjs246]

I'm pretty psyched that Chip is talking up Taylor Hart. Exciting stuff.

Herremans was released and said Mathis brought this all upon himself

Herremans with a decent take on the situation.

"I think it's kind of unfortunate for Evan. I think he kind of brought it upon himself, though, by not showing up. We expect them to stick to the contract that they offer us, that they sign us to, and they expect us to do the same. If you're going to violate some of the things that are expected out of you then you have to be able to deal with what comes next."
...
"[Chip Kelly's] main goal is to get everybody on his roster that wants the same thing, and the way that he looks at it is if you're not here during the voluntary stuff when all your teammates are trying to work together to win, then that means that you don't want the same thing that everybody else does, that you don't want to win. You want money, you don't want to win." ... "Which isn't true. I know that Evan wasn't happy with his contract, but he also wants to win. And he's a monster in the gym so I know he was working out keeping himself in shape."
...
"[Kelly] knows that he's got Al [Allen Barbre] that can play and [Matt] Tobin can play and [Andrew] Gardner can play. And given the chance to start, they can become starting guards in this league. But from the outside looking in, it is a tough move."
...
"I really, honestly, deep down think that the Eagles are going to have a good season. I think they're going to have a winning season," he said. "They may make the playoffs. I know there's been a lot of changes and everybody's questioning and stuff like that, but I really think you should just sit there and let Chip do what he's going to do and then see what the final product is because there is no sense in judging it until it's all done."

nfl teams dont stick to their contracts....if they aren't cutting you they are asking you to restructure

also voluntary means you don't have to come....guess nfl teams don't stick to this concept either

[SD]

So pretty much everyone who disagrees with Mathis is a moron...even guys who play right next to him and were cut.

[MDS]

chip kelly is the worst thing ever....aaron nola sucks....jeru holiday is the next great guard....iguodala is a whiny bitch....none of you appreciated iguodala......hinkie magic.....embiid is better than olajuwon.....

no just an nfl player who doesnt understand how contracts in the league work

Oh he understands, he also understands no one player is above the team. Pretty much what Chip's been drilling into everyones head. You want to be a disruption, there's the door.

yeah everyone has known this for a long time herremanns isnt exactly breaking news....chip wont even draft you if you dont have a college degree its been pretty obvious from almost the start that he isnt going to keep someone who wont join his cult

its so 1950's...its like pleasantville the football team....its elders who always talk about how they wish the country was like it used to be

[smeags]

gee willikers

[ice grillin you]

and for the record i am not dismissing his strategy out of hand....

lets just say im extremely skeptical and if he wins a superbowl it will easily be the most amazing story in nfl history regardless if you agree with the way he is doing things or not

[MDS]

you're skeptical of chip kelly?

[General_Failure]

I thought he was all in. Did something happen?
