Chip Kelly - Head Coach, Philadelphia Eagles

[PhillyPhreak54]

I havent been able to watch it but I will tonight -- just reading the responses and quotes on lil guy's favorite site....but it sounds like he had a helluva PC

[smeags]

im just trying to figure out when sam bradford became such a highly sought after nfl qb ?

[rjs246]

Never happened. 10000% Chip is just farging with everyone.

[QB Eagles]

The remaining Reid players... watch your backs

Riley Cooper
Brent Celek
Jason Kelce
Dennis Kelly
Evan Mathis
Jason Peters
Julian Vandervelde
Vinny Curry
Fletcher Cox
DeMeco Ryans
Mychal Kendricks
Brandon Graham
Brandon Boykin
Jon Dorenbos

Compare this list to Chip's list (rest of roster).  Talent disparity is striking.

Kinda unfair because if you go to any team and compare the players that have been there 3+ years with the remaining players, the most talented guys are likely to be in the first group just because good players change teams a lot less often.  I think the point is just how rapidly Chip has turned over the team.

I think the point is just how rapidly Chip has turned over the team.

which is crazy for football because its not baseball which is primarily an individual sport...you can flip your lineup and it means little

football is organized confusion a bunch of moving parts that need to work together...cohesion is huge....especially in a system that is so tightly run and specific

forget the specifics of who they have got rid of and who they brought in...I think people should be giving more attention to the mass turnover and how that is going to effect the team this year...it would be a pretty amazing feat if chip has another winning record next year regardless of who he adds the rest of the offseason

[QB Eagles]

I think a bigger question is whether Chip will maintain the pace of turnover. It's one thing during a major regime change like what the Eagles have gone through over the past couple of years. It's another if he's going to be carving up the team like this on a regular basis, trying guys out and rejecting them quickly. You'd think not, but I think he's impatient and not afraid to make rash moves. Big Balls Chip.

hes turning over the guys howie/andy signed and drafted

then again his idol billicheat always has a massive amount of turnover every year except for his all-time qb. chip has sam bradford, though.

of course not...once he gets his guys in then it will slow down greatly

[Rome]

How can you watch his press conferences and not be entertained?   

Seriously, it's like watching a cat taunt a roomful of mice.

[ice grillin you]

hes the ultimate talker...hes so convincing and he does it in such a laymans kinda way that could even make sense to a toddler...theres no trade he could swing no matter how bad where afterwards he couldn't talk to you about and make it sound sensible

he should have been in glengarry glen ross

[Rome]

Andy Reid always thought he was the smartest guy in the room.

This guy is the smartest guy in the room.

Look, I don't know if the moves he's making are going to work out or not.  Obviously I hope they do but I'm definitely giving him the benefit of the doubt.   

[General_Failure]

I'll give you a hint. Not all of these wounded ducks are going to be better than the guys they're replacing.

[ice grillin you]

This guy is the smartest guy in the room.

good news is that this may be true....bad news is that its probably a college locker room

[Rome]

I'll give you a hint. Not all of these wounded ducks are going to be better than the guys they're replacing.

I'm pretty sure they're not done yet.  I might be wrong, though.  Let me check Eagles.com to find out... be right back...

The point wasn't an aggregate comparison.  What elite players has Chip added?  What very good ones?  Lane Johnson and ...?  In 2.5 offseasons you should have more to show in personnel than who you were gifted with the fourth pick.
