26CornerBlitz Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 (edited) @mortreport Chip Kelly is the new coach of the Philadelphia Eagles, according to league sources... Edited January 16, 2013 by 26CornerBlitz
NoSaint Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 didnt see that coming. sometimes these deals just need the media attention to fade to get done though.
Bills of Boston Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 According to ESPN's Chris Mortensen, the Eagles have hired Chip Kelly as their head coach. http://www.rotoworld.com/ Wow...

BringBackFergy Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 Here come the lime green Eagles unis for 2013
McBeane Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 Ummmm.... What an odd story this has become..

Billsrhody Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 Wow crazy.. thought he was back at oregon for good
McBeane Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 I was all aboard the Chip Kelly bandwagon a couple weeks ago, but at this point, I can't let myself root for him.
NoSaint Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 (edited) Wow crazy.. thought he was back at oregon for good i assume these means the eagles search was going poorly and they essentially privately told him to name his price and demands and got it finalized. im looking forward to seeing what his scheme does. with mccoy and brown in the backfield and jackson/maclin outside.... if he finds his qb it could be fun to watch. even if it flops, im curious as a fan of the game.

Bills of Boston Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 Ill say... I really thought I clicked on an old rotoworld page for a minute there
26CornerBlitz Posted January 16, 2013 Author Posted January 16, 2013 Mr. Equivocation strikes with a huge surprise: @smartfootball Damn Chip Kelly hit us with the okie doke: http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/8849699/chip-kelly-bolts-oregon-ducks-coach-philadelphia-eagles-sources …
BillsInMaine Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 I was all for Kelly also. Now... I hope he fails really. Way to screw the Browns!
26CornerBlitz Posted January 16, 2013 Author Posted January 16, 2013 I'm betting the Eagles keep Vick as their QB to run Kelly's FastBreak offense.
Captain Hindsight Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 Sounded to me like he didnt really want to leave College. This really could blow up in their faces if he struggles early next season
DefenseWinzChampionshipz Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 At least now we get to see if this Chip guy is as good as many of you have claimed...
26CornerBlitz Posted January 16, 2013 Author Posted January 16, 2013 (edited) Mortensen's Story on ESPN.com: http://espn.go.com/n...-eagles-sources Confirmed by the Eagles: @NFL_ATL Eagles confirm Chip Kelly is the new coach. No changing his mind now. @JasonLaCanfora Eagles have now announced they have hired Chip Kelly as their head coach. Bold, bold move. Showed a lot of perseverance to pull it off @ProFootballWkly #Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie: “Chip Kelly will be an outstanding head coach for the Eagles. He has a brilliant football mind." Edited January 16, 2013 by 26CornerBlitz
DefenseWinzChampionshipz Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 He didn't want to be here and being here is Marrone's "dream job"... I say "F" Chip and who cares...
