Chip Kelly 2.0

[DaveThePanther2008]

Remember when the guru Chip Kelly took over in Philly.  He gutted that team and did nothing with his changes.

I see the same thing happening here but we did it far more brutally.  Forced Luke into retirement, *Mutually parted ways with Olsen*, lied to Cam the entire offseason about waiting until he was healthy.  Maybe we should Trade CMC then Rhule can bring in his running back from Baylor.

Tepper wants to win but we'll be luck if we can beat a good college team.

This moves are painful to watch.  I hope Cam takes whoever he signs with to the Super Bowl.

I don't think we forced Luke to retire. I think that was his decision. He's 27. If he wanted to keep playing and didn't want to be here he could've forced his way out. Luke retired due to medical concerns.

But yeah, so far this is all looking very Chip Kelly-ish in the early going. We'll have to see how it all plays out.

Dude, we haven't played a game yet. Let's see after about 10-12 games at least.

A lot of these moves are also Belichickesque

Sorry, but you have no idea. None of us do. Stop jumping to conclusions.

Keep in mind that Chip Kelly won some games in Philly and then just wanted to retool to his own team. We never got to see the finished product.  Phily messed up by not keeping some control IF they wanted to keep their team,.. and Chip messed up by not making it clear he was going to blow it up and wanted time to do that.

Tepper wanted this team blown up,.. that’s what is different here is the owner wanted this. He’s in a profession where he’s used to pissing people off and doesn’t care for now what we all think. 
 

you could say Sean McVae is Chip 2.0 or Arizona’s coach,..

the issue is for us is we all want the fast forward button to see what the finished product will look like and unfortunately that looks 3 seasons away at best.

Chip Kelly took over in 2009 at Oregon who was coming off seasons of 10-2, 7-6, 9-4 and 10-3 the previous four.  The cupboards at Oregon were far from bare.  Everywhere Rhule has been hired was mired in mediocrity at the very best, and he significantly improved all of them.  I'm not saying he won't end up like Kelly, but I think his track record indicates that he may have better success in a rebuild than Kelly.

You're out.

Classic "couldn't beat a good college team" hot take.  

[emcannon]

I mean, can we see Rhule coach even 30 seconds of NFL football before we start labeling him a Chip Kelly-esque failure? Hot garbage take.

[Panthercougar68]

Dude hasn’t even had a practice yet let alone a game.

[Shotgun]

Trade CMC ? No way! We will just release him when the time comes. It's the panther's way.
