Why not Andy Reid?


CollegePanther

Recommended Posts

Alright, I've been pretty busy lately so I haven't been able to read the forum like I used to. But from what I can tell most of you are up Chip Kelly's ass. The last thing I want is Chud's clone running this team. He'd overuse Cam's athletic ability and get him hurt. We need someone with experience... we don't have the time to experiment with a college coach, which rarely works. Andy Reid is an extremely good coach, one of the best of his era. But much like John Fox, sometimes coaches just need a change of scenery. Reid has only had 3 losing seasons in 14 years of coaching. Compare that to our franchise, whose never had back to back winning seasons. And to make his resume even better, all 14 of his years have been with a mobile quarterback. So I don't know what you guys are thinking but I'm on the Andy Reid bandwagon.

Kelly getting cam hurt when the other choice is Reid's when mike Vick and Mcnabb were rarely healthy the whole season? I'd rather have Kelly he's much smarter then chud and will do much better then him.

I want someone who will at least attempt to use the running game. Andy Reid will not....other than that if live the hire.

Kelly is not Chuds clone. He has basically adapted every offense he's run to the competition and available talent. He'd do te same here and don't think he'd overuse Cam.

Agree in that Chud's problem isn't necessarily that he runs a bunch of "college" plays, it's that he is sometimes a bad judge of when to use them and how often to use them. He also just does some boneheaded things that are hard to figure out. A good example is his use of the wildcat on occasion, when every single time it is a DWill run. You might as well have DWill come on to the field carrying a sign saying "we're going to run the ball now, so go ahead and stack the box".

As far as Reid, I think the guy is suffering a bit of burn out and probably needs to take a year off.

Exactly. So saying Kelly is just a chud clone is ridiculous and misinformed

    • Very True--and I am a former HS English teacher.  
    • Not a Moore fan-but he had a few good games last year-but I want players that scare you--Renfrow's route running and intelligence, Legette's size, speed, and strength, AT's intelligence and route running, Coker's body control, strong hands, and abilty to win contested catches, and TMac's size, body control, and ability to find soft spots in zone coverages.  Horn gives them the ability to stretch the field and he plays special teams.   Moore has a nice smile and can dance.  He filled in well last season, but to get better as a team, you have to upgrade your players.  I think Moore is a bottom of the roster guy who got bumped when we drafted 2 WRs and signed a legit free agent.  Here is the thing--TMac makes us better because he is great against the zone--man?  Good luck with that.  AT's role can be reduced, and that is probably a good thing.  He can specialize in situational football. Coker?  Just getting started. XL?  Just getting started.  Drafting TMac was probably a bit of a wake up call, but XL will be better as the 2. Renfrow?  I see him splitting reps with AT--keeping both fresh and giving different looks. Horn?  Watch the safety cheat his side when he is in the game--I see a young Steve Smith type in him, but he has yet to play a game.  I hear that Morgan loves him.
    • Burns at 5-6 seems....a little aggressive.
