Eagles game may have just gotten interesting

There's been massive speculation that the USC Trojans would go hard after Eagles coach Chip Kelly if they fired head coach Steve Sarkisian, something that's been rumored for a while 

Sarkisian was officially canned today.

With that now done and Kelly off to a slow start in Philly, the possibility of a Nick Saban / Bobby Petrino style exit raises its head.

Could be some intrigue going on when we play the Eagles.

Their offense will own our D. The two times we played them, once in pre season, once in regular season, we have looked awful

we're not the same defense we were last season. they gobbled up our secondary but that's the spot we've most improved.

my only real concern about our defense at this point (aside from 59's health) is gap discipline by the interior DL and obviously a consistent pass rush off the edges. neither of these things particularly stymie us going against the eagles roster.

preseason....everyone looks bad not gameplanning for it. 

Chip Kelly isn't new anymore.  Ron is good.  A year of film is now on his O.   Ron got the D

Outside of the Saints game, the most the Eagles have scored this season is 24 points. That's not "owning".

I'd be highly surprised if that happened mid season- Philly fans would literally riot 

You gotta figure Southern Cal will offer him the world with a cherry on top.

Heck, even if he says he'd never leave Philly, it could definitely turn into a distraction.

Chip Kelly is currently making 6.5 Million per year. If he were to ditch his contract which has 2 more seasons after this then he would have to have some really good incentives. Nick Saban is the highest paid coach with 7.3 Million per season and I honestly do not see a situation where he would leave unless USC pays him above 8 million. Plus the sour taste of Lane Kiffin still lingers which makes USC a hot mess right now.

I could see them offering 7.5 a year for 5 years or more plus perks.

Plus his approach is better suited to the college level and he'd arguably have more control there.

that and their QBs are all interception machines....

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion in Here)

      By CRA · Posted

      PJ's completion % was 63% when starting games in Carolina.  Which I believe is better than Bryce when starting.  And again, 4-3 as the starter here and the LONE QB Carolina has been able to actually win with in the Tepper era.  If you ask a gambling gunslinger to come into blowouts.....they are going to go down in a blaze of glory.  Which he would do.  Yeah, he isn't good.  And gunslingers are supposed to have rockier stats than checkdown QBs.   So....why does PJ Walker have a better comp % as a starter than Bryce Young.  And for every knock you want to make about PJ, you can find something or a skillset that PJ does better than Bryce.   I didn't say PJ had good field vision.  He doesn't.  Tell me about Bryce after he comes off the first read lol.  Let me repeat, PJ Walker is not a good QB.  He is NFL depth and an in house arm.  Bryce Young doesn't belong in a convo w/ Jake and Cam.  He belongs closer in a convo with the backup caliber QBs Carolina was forced into playing.  Which isn't just PJ Walker.  But Kyle Allen.  Moore.  Guys like that.

      Vet QB Options - Trade/Cut/FA Edition

      Oh I see what you meant by memory. I will trust my memory, I have looked a a lot of those ball charts for Bryce and they trend a general pattern. They thing that has changed that I have noticed more recently is the reduction in the bunching of behind or at  the LOS passes over to his right.  Aside from the quantity of throws recently since the running game has become a more dominant factor.

      Yes but you basically said you are going from a quick skim of those charts without doing the same for Bryce and/or Andy. So you are going memory vs. snapshots. That's not going to be a very comprehensive analysis.
