It is with great joy I create this thread. This is what happens when you think you know the NFL and you've only been there for 5 minutes. Take that BS back to college!

Pat Shurmur will take over as interim head coach for Sunday's Week 17 finale against the New York Giants.

I think he's taking it to Tennessee. That team is desperate for relevancy, and for at least a short time, Kelly will bring that.

I could see him getting one more shot in the NFL. He was fired with a winning record of 26-21, but he's never going to have a say in personnel decisions ever again. He completely destroyed the foundation of the Eagles roster, and that I must thank him for.

Chip Kelly left college because the NCAA was investigating the program. I'm sure he never wanted to bounce in the first place.

That being said, he had scrubs as QBs, so it wasn't all bad.

And most draft rankings had him at least at a B grading. Jordan Hicks was good.

And it's kind of strange that they would fire him for personnel decisions right now and not after the season.

That being said maybe Jerry can learn from Lurie and fire Jason by Sunday..

Unbelievable. Where is the loyalty? They won 10 games in 2013 and 2014.
