Fire Chip Kelly

Playing as bad as they actually are is laying down.

It's all Chips fault.   Got it.

hi im shady, you know one of the best rb's in the game - nah dont give me the ball on the 2yard line, let the unprepared rookie qb rollout and try to create a play. 

playcalling like that loses a roster quick.

stop being a passive aggressive woman and explain your points?  how are they laying down?  the defense has gotten better and is playing with as much or more intensity than they did to begin the year.

the offense has become this predictable hunk of shtein in which they either zone read shady into the line or they throw some 5 yard flat routes.

he came in as an offensive genius, and was living up to that early in the season.  the eagles were moving the ball and because they had a functioning retard at qb they couldn't score in the red zone.  however, they have scored 10 pts in the past two games at home against division rivals with zesty defenses.  7 of those points were by the special teams.  ZERO TOUCHDOWNS in two games at home.  with all the same personnel.  how are you not looking at him first?

enough of the abstract "laying down" shtein....what is kelly doing well that you like?

[Rome]

Nothing.  He sucks and should be fired immediately.

I like the fact that he's calling the plays and expecting his offense to carry them out.   He's expecting accountability from his players.  I like that he's continuing to run the ball a lot.

The guy is far from perfect and he's made some godawful decisions but this shteinfest is on the players shoulders from my perspective.

at some point we all have to realize that the players aren't very good and they have limitations.  riley cooper is starting for a nfl team, that is not the component of a good team.

so yes, he's calling his plays and expecting them to be run.  but still, he has to understand his talent level and adjust, i haven't seen a lot of that.  the oline has been a disappointment this year, they have not been as good as expected coming into the season.

all that being said, there has to be more to this offense than shotgun runs up the middle and play action off of that.  where is the creativity?

[ice grillin you]

as bad as hes been and hes been pretty bad if they have a legit nfl qb they win both the dallas and giant games

I'm totally on board for calling nothing but running plays, but Barkley has to figure out which way he needs to turn for handoffs first.

[ice grillin you]

it would be nice if they had a rb who could hit a hole as well...all shady does is go laterally up the line...stutter step then turn and go the other direction and take a dive

and bryce brown is a joke as far as busting it up field

also again for god sakes get out of the read option set wheny you dont have a qb who can run....no one on defense is going to respect that look

[Rome]

I'd prefer it if they lined up 10 guys with Jackson split out wide and ran the ball 50 times a game.

How would Shady react to that?   Bryce Brown has been hideous.   Chris Polk is non existent.  The tight ends can't block and the receivers other than Jackson are pathetic.

PS - How can you be creative when the offense can't even be counted on to run the base plays with precision?

[smeags]

well you're all wrong ... rendell said it's the fans fault.

[phillycrew]

The fault starts with Howie.  He is a horrible GM and I think they need to give Chip more time and a real QB.  I am encouraged that the defense has looked better the last two weeks.
