Maybe not, but it's still funny, especially if it happens and Foles is back and running a play every 22 seconds.

All in all, the Eagles are in a bit of a bad position.

Do they think for a second that they need a QB?

Or do they go crazy and seek CB salvation?

Stay tuned this offseason.

Jason Garrett after three straight 8-8 seasons, missing playoffs each time: "He just needs more time!"

Chip Kelly after one division title and another 9/10 win season likely missing the playoffs: "Choker! His offense will never work in the NFL. Go back to college!"

Gotta love CZ.

It's not just CZ, go listen to philly radio... They are calling for Kelly's head. Rolling with Bradley Fletcher one on one for three weeks, 13 penalties tonight resulting in 6 first downs. Fail. His offensive philosophy of leaving the defense on the field for 40 minutes is another fail. Personnel decisions in the draft and letting desean Jackson go, fail. He's failing and needs a correction. It's not the CZ, we're just celebrating his misery.

They need QB, but won't be in position to get one, and they'll be forced to draft corner.

But honestly, Chip Kelly can continue to draft the way he's been drafting. :laugh:

I think forcing pace on personnel that can't handle running it may be at least as big a problem as the personnel itself.

I guess I sort of did say in the thread title that Kelly is a choker. It's still funny who would take offense to that rather than celebrate the Eagles loss.

You didn't "sort of" say it, you flat out said it. That's fine, by the way. It's how you feel, own it. I personally think it's a big hypocritical given your stance on Garrett over the years, but my post wasn't really geared directly at you as much as it was the majority of posts in this thread in general.

I'm thrilled the Eagles lost, by the way, but I do like Chip Kelly.

Yeah, your thrill shows all over. It's practically frothing over in every post.

It is true isn't it? At least at this point it is. Chip and the Eagles are chokers right now. That doesn't mean they were chokers last season or that they will be chokers in the future. They are chokers right now and Dallas needs to take care of business to truly benefit from a little of that choking.

Ummmmmm, did you see who Garrett was dragging out there as a front seven last year on the final game of the season?
Everette Brown, Jarius Wynn, An injured Jason Hatcher, George Selvie, Martez Wilson, Hayden, some guy named Pendleton were all rotation lineman.


Kelly seems like a good guy, but his philosophy might go the way the read option soon. Garrett on the other hand, may have taken awhile to get to where he needs to be, but let's face it the guy was rebuilding a train wreck. It seems to me his philosophy is working and his far more sustainable long term.

Everything looks better when you have the best line in the league. I'd love for the Eagles to suck, but I do like Kelly as a coach. Let's see where he's at in year four.

A better QB would help but I still believe the system is hard on it's own players..

Maybe, but I don't think you can judge it fairly with Sanchez running it. He's not just a subpar QB, he is a turnover machine.

That was a win win for us. Was dropped a few notches in the draft order. Philly dropped out of contention for the most part.

The Eagles will never win a Super Bowl and we all know it.

Even when they were 9-3, those three losses were from the teams that will possibly be at the top in playoff contention in the NFC. The Packers tore them up, the Seahawks embarrassed them and the Cardinals beat them. They should have known that even if they did make it, they were going nowhere.

They are what they are. A bunch of classless losers and they deserve any and all misery as pertains to their football team that is humanly possible.

From a masochistic point of view, this is really hard on the Eagles - nearly dead, but not officially dead for a couple of weekends. If Dallas wins, Philly has to pray GB, Det, or Sea lose last two games....correct me if this is not exactly right. So if any of these four teams lose this weekend, then win the next, that will cause maximum misery for Eagle fans.
