Philly columnist: How Chip Kelly rebuilt Eagles and stuck it to Dallas

[Eric_Boyer]

None of the Eagle backfield is as good as what the traded away. How does that improve their chances? McFadden, if healthy, is just as good as Murray, and, we have more money to spend....the Eagles have less.

their skill position situation has me shaking my head. Riley Cooper and Jordan Mathews are the #1 and #2

Exactly. The Eagles will be lucky to finish third in our division this year.

At the end of the day chip can do whatever he wants because if our fo do there jobs correctly and will mclay can continue to find us talent through the drafts then chips ducks will always will all be nfc east runner ups

Agree with betting on Will McClay; and I believe in Marrinelli.

Garrett ain't no joke either (while everyone is slobbering over the Chipster). Jason will keep building his team of "position flex" guys who love football and have some "snap" to their game.

Give me old school football all day every day.

 

[Sportsbabe]

Please. Chip destroyed that team and their cap future with over paying Maxwell and Murray. Murray will get hurt and ride the bench. He's paid now. Maxwell will be shown what he is with out Sherman, Thomas and Chancellor.

Could you imagine ESPN if Jerry traded a 2nd for Bradford?

Great points. Especially the part about ESPN/Jerry/Bradford. Now the "company" line is that Bradford fits perfectly in Chips offense,

The panic of some of the posters in this thread is comical. We haven't even reached OTAs and philly has already won the division.

Can't wait for it all to come together when Murray learns how to not fumble while he makes more than one cut on making a man miss. Chip's gonna kove that patented "Murray breakaway speed."

Team looks weak

 

[Wheeltax]

It must be weird to be an Eagles fan/columnist and so obsessed with a team that you don't even follow or write about.

I always laugh when somebody calls in to sports radio and starts with "I'm an Eagles fan..." then ends with "and screw the Cowboys" It seems to happen pretty frequently. I never hear fans of any other team do that.

You guys okay up there?

New QB, bad offensive line, no WRs, new RBs, new DB's, no linebackers, no pass rushers.

Yeah, scary.

Yeah QB is a question, their OL has Kelce, Peters and Johnson so it's not bad by any stretch. If Murray is healthy, he will be very good in that offense. And the were at the top of the league in QB sacks, so pass rushing ain't really their problem.

It's amazing this writer can type with pompoms in his hands.

 

[Sportsbabe]

You know the funny (even hilarious) thing? They are obsessed with anything to "stick it" to the Dallas Cowboys, while in the same time Dallas doesn't even know there is a football team in philly until the week we play them… LOL ..

Every body better hold their horses until we see how this turns out .. coz if it sinks downs Jerry IS the one who stuck it to chip

Yes, yes. Philly, Washington. They are all obsessed with us. Bless their hearts.

 

[Sportsbabe]

Exactly. If they really want to stick it to us, they would land a qb that is even close to Romo's level.

overpaying for a RB when the rest of the league devalues the position just indicates Chip is in over his head.

... and then he has about 4 of them (that are practically starting caliber). What are they talking about? I believe Chipster (the mad scientist) is still going to trade somebody.

 

[Kevinicus]

So what happened to that offense of theirs when Dallas played them in Philthy last season?

They put up nearly 30 points?

 

[Fletch]

They put up nearly 30 points?

But they fizzled out big time at the end of the 3rd and most of the 4th. They ran out of gas and we controlled the clock.

This guy has been on the Quack too long.....
