He's the greatest thing since slice bread or so I've been told.

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

Yup MIrvin, Murray's 3.4 ypc is the reason Eagles are so good right now. SInce you said on Eagles radio awhile back he is the reason they are so good over us.

 

[Bungarian]

Irvin has been big on the Eagles ever since Murray left.

 

[windjc]

Can any one remind me of how many championships Kelly won at Oregon?

 

[Fletch]

That the playmaker tryin to keep the Boy's grounded with a chip on their shoulder.....wants them to think they're being disrespected....not given a chance against the vaunted Eagles and the great Chip Kelly.

Irvin gettin all psychological on Dem Boyz!

I agree. He's hoping it ruffles their feathers some. All though it's only game two of the preseason. Lol

 

[windjc]

The Eagles O is hard to stop if you don't game plan for it. If you dont control time of possession or play physical with them, then they are hard to beat.

However, Dallas(and the rigors of a 16 game season) are perfectly designed to annihilate them. Which is pretty cool.

 

[Ken]

Already have Eagles fan friends texting me telling me how good they are going to be...lol Let's see how they play next week.

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

Saints are way better than the Patriots as we know. Up 21-0.

I thought there was a sort of gentleman's agreement that teams would play vanilla offenses and defenses in the preseason because they were all evaluating talent. That doesn't seem to be true anymore, at least for a couple of teams, with Rex Ryan calling for blitz after blitz and Chip Kelly running no-huddle.

 

[dmq]

The only way we lose to the Giants first game is if we can't hang on to the ball.

 

[jobberone]

eagles will have a good oline.

Debatable.

I don't like too much blitzing but teams should look enough to see who can do it.

I don't mind at all his running the no-huddle. Gives other teams film and it does give him the necessary looks at who can play his offense. I just don't like it.

Their offense was pretty good last year.

Chip Kelly running no huddle is pretty much their vanilla offense.

 

[erod]

Gimmicky teams are tough without gameplanning.

And good teams rarely look good in preseason.

 

[30yrheel]

Kelly is the kind of jack*** who game plans to win a preseason game.

 

[30yrheel]

Maybe they can beat the skins for the preseason championship.

 

[Deep_South]

Yeah, I know. I just like to trash the Eagles.

I don't know. Part of me thinks Irvin is getting a little satisfaction from this. I am surprised he is putting so much weight on a second preseason game. I wonder what would be his thoughts if the Eagles were getting blown out in a second preseason game. Let me guess, "it's only preseason".

The Eagles are great against air. Just Bob Griffin was all world when Shanahan designed a system for him. Check back with me after Thanksgiving.
