Eagles to make huge push for Chip Kelly.

Problem with Kelly is that he is solely an offensive coach and only cares about offense, in my opinion he would be a better OC than head coach.

With Kelly, you are essentially paying a guy head coach money to be your OC.

Translation: I don't know a whole lot about Chip Kelly.....my post count is high!

When people realize the players are just as much at fault for this season as the coaches. Seven losses occurred by a touchdown or less. Also for those that trash Rivera after to sub-par seasons. His winning percentage is around 18th in the NFL (not even remotely close to being the worse).

Also everyone is saying Chip can do this, Chip can do that, the fact is the guys that have successful leaps from the college realm have ran pro style offenses and defenses. Oregon runs a spread offense and a 3-4 hybrid defense. The offense in general is not a good idea for the Panthers much less the NFL and the defense doesn't fit our personnel

Chip will have to do as much learning as his players do when (if) he makes the jump to the NFL. The gamble is not worth it (in my opinion), when this team would literally be on the cusps of a playoff birth if they had executed and made three extra plays down the stretch.

    • It's rare enough for a running back to tear the same ACL twice. There's not much of a sample size on the recoveries. And of course Dobbins has missed a lot of time--he was injured twice. That number will drop as his career continues, and even if it doesn't, that doesn't necessarily mean it has anything to do with the prior injuries. Dobbins just started and played well for a playoff team all year until he was injured by a hip-drop tackle. Surely his ACL recoveries didn't contribute to his completely random foot injury caused by an illegal tackle? Again, I'm confused why everyone is being so definitive that there's 'very little chance' of any meaningful contribution ever when the greatest counterpoint ever played for us. Thomas Davis tore the same knee over and over again and was basically fine. As for the roster-building stuff, we'll see what happens with Chuba and Dowdle at the end of the year, but Etienne's not going to factor into this. Either Brooks comes back, in which case we've already seen more from him than we have from Etienne, or he doesn't. But Etienne's not forcing him off the team. If anything, Etienne's current role is his absolute floor.
    • Then I would assume disingenuous. Why on earth would you consider this an "exciting" time to be a Panthers fan? Let me ask this, how old are you and how long have you been an NFL fan?
    • An ESPN writer had a good breakdown of teams that were likely to come back to earth(KC and Redskins were two of them) based on outlier results in 2024 in close games. I think that has a lot to do with it. Found it: https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46003861/nfl-teams-likely-decline-lose-more-games-2025-season-predictions-vikings-chiefs-commanders-lions-colts
