Fire Chip Kelly

[ice grillin you]

chip killin the players...says the other team knowing what the plays are is not the problem...the execution is and the eagle players are just making excuses for not being able to block or tackle

also totally dismissing josh huff saying that he heard dallas players calling out the eagle plays...chip says "i just talked to josh and he said he didnt hear that"....lol

[SunMo]

that's probably not good for the #culture

[ice grillin you]

pretty cool that espn showed the whole thing....man did chip look more miserable and angry than usual when he has to do those things

[MDS]

i think in college there's 1 mid week availability and a conference call for the pac 12

maybe thatll suit him better

If you have the TALENT to execute, you could give the opposing coach your playbook a week before the game and it wouldn't matter. Talent trumps scheme and schemes are made up when your players lack talent.

yeah even tom brady is gonna suck if the other team knows whats coming....theres a reason new england videotaped other teams offensive signals....walk thrus and practices

[MDS]

the pats also changed up their scheme every week...granted it helps to have brady who is probably the best ever....but depending on what BB sees through his cheating theyll run it 100 times or pass it 100 times...go empty....go 4 tes...whatever

chip runs the same 4 plays over and over again because culture

I thought hyperbole was well understood round these parts.

Point is, if you have superior talent then predictability becomes less relevant.

I mean...is he wrong? It IS on the players because they have sucked.

he's sucked right along with them too...but he's doing what Andy didn't - say when they suck

[General_Failure]

Maybe you shouldn't publicly throw your players under the bus like a bitch. For all Andy's faults, he got that part right up until the end.

[PhillyPhreak54]

I need to hear how he said it but I don't always hate when guys get called out

[Rome]

He's not saying anything everyone here hasn't said.  Hell, the players themselves have said it

and this board was filled with complaints that he never did.

you never throw your players under the bus....once you lose them its over...with chip its even more tenuous because he has to first convince all his players that his weird ways of doing things is revolutionary like everyone has said it is....he has to have people respect a guy who undeservedly was given historic amounts of control...a guy who has jettisoned talent over culture...and like sunny said...rippin your own players and making them back track off things they have said is not good culture...but perhaps chip truly is the genious people think he is and he has enough of his kind of people in there now that he has effectively brainwashed them into being ok with whatever he says or does....what happend with josh huff today was really remarkable....but huff is his adopted son going back to oregon...it remains to be seen how the rest of the room reacts to chip as they continue to lose and potentially unravels

i still wouldnt do it but i suppose you could rip your players if youve won a lot in the league....even then its rare that you ever see it...people who say nothing like andy or bellicek dont do it nor do colorful guys like pete carroll or rex ryan...not that theres is a long list of them but coaches who rip players i imagine are thin skinned clowns coaches like ditka....they may have been out there but i dont specifically remember anyone ever wanting andy to rip players they mostly just wanted him to have some personality and say anything about anything above and beyond his two or three stock answers...i know my biggest frustartion with him was that he never showed that he cared about losing....im in my living breaking shtein up and hes saying the same farging thing every week...i wanted him to care as much as i did and he acted like he didnt care at all

ive been fine with chips pressers uo to now...his snarkyness and disdain for the media while not my cup of tea is fine when you are winning...its ok if it shows confidence...if its a sign of insecurity then it becomes a problem

[PhillyPhreak54]

I just find it funny that when Andy said zilch people ripped him. Now Chip calls out , and quite frankly it isn't even calling out, but rather tells it like it is he's getting heat. Being 0-2 has a lot to do with it but the facts are the facts.

I agree with losing the locker room so he has to tread lightly. Now if they were winning and he was nitpicking and calling people out...that is bad.

The thing with Huff...I don't get why he'd say that. He can dance around that much better than he did.

I will watch the PC when I get home.

Bottom line...they better win. If this snowballs then we're going to see some epic shtein
