Eagles game may have just gotten interesting

Recommended Posts

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.

    • Rod kinda confirmed that Staalsy is gonna retire. Called it a great ending to his story.    Glad for him to go out on top with the cup and conn if true. 
    • Every union, union adjacent, or union tangent organization does this. They prey on dumb employees  who think the union is there for them instead of the mob or some other social-politically entangled arse. Always degrades the product and indeed the price of that product too. Then money flowing up to people with 0 to do with anything about the product. Its the most simple protection racket and oldest in the book yet people are still sub 70 enough to think it matters for anything other than making money for the racketeers.  I mean this is on their Wiki(yeah i know wiki) The NFL Players Association is the labor union representing National Football League players in matters concerning wages, hours and working conditions, and protects their rights as professional football players. So instead of the player doing that with his own agent which is why you have a fkn agent lol. So they are pilfering money from the player twice. Agent then NFLPA The standard annual membership dues are approximately $15,000. While players are not legally obligated to formally join the union, those who choose not to are generally still required to pay a mandatory service fee equivalent to union dues. Can't take anyone seriously when they talk up unions and since the mob is involved that's why you get those refs doing NFL ref poo. You can even hear former mob Michael Franzese just open admit this now that he's out of prison and making YT videos.(has been for years now)
