if he takes off i hope you eat those words

angry much brah?

Kelly is far from a slam dunk coach, his offense in college was predicated on a system that won't directly translate to the NFL and he has no NFL experience.

Jim harbaugh was a NFL player for 13 years and even made a probowl in 95 on top of all his coaching accomplishments. Pete Carroll had years of coaching and later head coaching expirence before he ever went to USC

Those two guys are the reason why NFL owners are even considering college coaches again after a string of disasters.

Personally I think overall Brian Kelly would be the better of the two Kelly's if he made the jump. I'm just so so on chip

plus he didn't really have that great of a history with duck boosters (he didn't kiss their ass so they thought they could do better than the guy that gave them more wins than any other coach they've had).

He had a great relationship with the only Duck booster that mattered.

Your respond is predicated on the assumption that kelly is taking his offensive system and forcing it to a team that cant do it. Thats not going to happen. What hes bring is a no huddle up tempo offense which we already know works in the NFL threw NE. We know he can win against good college programs with not the best of recruits and take a mediocre program to 4 bowl games straight.

The NFL is an ever changing product and has moved to an offensive dominated game. He will work in the NFL and I just dont understand why people dont think he will pan out.

and no im not mad, just taking people to task when he does in fact win in the NFL especially with an offensively talented team and no a bad d unit that just needs good coaching to be brought out.

I will be surpeised if he is successful. How many college coaches with 0 NFL experience have nade it? Jimmy Johnson..........any others? He is smart and creative (we have recently experienced that those qualities are not all they are cracked up to be), and he may defy the odds. I would not bet on it. Makes the Eagles seem desperate.

    • Just worry about it next year.  Its that simple honestly.  its way to early to do what ifs.  I could see us trade/cut chuba and retain dowdle, I could see them let dowdle walk and go with Chuba/Etienne and Brooks, and I could see Dowdle and Chuba both stay and see what happens.  Hell, we still have 6 games left THIS season plus possible post-season...what if Rico or Chuba have an ACL tear or severe injury.  I DO NOT want that to happen, but stuff like that does happen.  Remember RB is the most injury prone position in the NFL due to the beating their bodies take so having some extra guys is never bad, just wish it hadn't come at the cost we paid to get him.
    • I think it’s cool that no one can be really certain what the outcome will be.  That’s a lot of progress! This is a real opportunity for us, I’d be happy with a competitive game and thrilled if we sack up for a W.
    • I could never found out who did the first surgery. That failed.      Nor who did the recent one.    Yiu can’t count on anything involving him. If it happens it’s a windfall at this point.
