Oregon must be fucked.

They may be getting hit with NCAA sanctions. Kelly might have figured now was the time to get out. Eagles have to be considered one of the better jobs to walk into in terms of talent already there. We shall see if he can handle the pressure of the Philly fans and media.

so does he get your endorsement?

Wouldn't have been my first choice, but his work with offenses and especially quarterbacks is very impressive. He is a disciple of Mike Holmgren and Mike Shanahan. Steve young had some great numbers with Trestman as the OC, when Young was healthy, that is.

Put it this way. The aforementioned hall of fame quarterback strongly endorses the move. For what it's worth.

start one

I'd read it

Awww, thanks guys, feel very humbled ... as difficult as that may be to believe . But I honestly doubt I would have the time to properly maintain a blog plus pretty much everyone out there has one, so I am sure there's nothing for me to say that hasn't already been said

don't know about endorsement but of all the people the bears have been linked with over the past couple of weeks or so, Trestman and Ariens looked like the best options to me. That doesn't mean it's not a risky choice and for me it will either be seen as a stroke of genius or could lead to a new Bears GM in a year.

The Bears have a good base to build onto, especially compared to other teams that fired a coach, so anything less than a 9-7 or 10-6 record will likely be seen as a step back from Lovie, imo, even in Trestman's 1st season. Remains to be seen if he will be up for it.

But first things first - shore up that O-line

i woulda taken mc coy, and it soudns like someone read the peiece on him on espn

i put more weight on a sarge endorsement, for what it's worth

Interesting tidbit.


Kaepernick beat two NFL MVP's this season in the span of a month, and beat three Super Bowl MVP's this season, two of them on the road

@acmilan Thank you for your response

no problem ... probably what you wanted to hear too

I agree that Kaep has had some great outings thus far but he's also shown he can be a rookie too - his very high ceiling doesn't necessarily imply consistency too. The good news for the 9ers is that they don't need him to have another record-breaking performance in order for them to beat the falcons in an away game, at least that's my opinion of it ... he just needs to have a solid game, take care of the ball and avoid rookie mistakes and meltdowns as that for me is the only way the falcons have a shot in this game. Can he handle that? I believe he can but there are no guarantees for that in an away play-off game.

what do you mean? I just saw that he and kelly had been hired

don't know about McCoy - Peyton always makes his OCs look great and I am not sure who was really the OC there, tbh. Once it became clear the Bears weren't going for someone like Gruden, Cowher, Dungy, etc, it was always gonna be a high-risk choice, no matter who they went with. I just think this guy and Ariens had at least shown they could do the HC job even if in the CFL and an interim role, respectively.

well, they for sure aint happy . Just wonder how much does Kelly's change of heart had to do with possible NCAA sanctions? And maybe Oregon are hoping to soften a possible blow too.

ok. looks good for us.

 

[Vinny Del Pogba]

Tresterman or whatever his name is will be a disaster in Chicago.

 

[GordoDeCentral]

thanks asshole

 

[KB824]

Gus Bradley is the new coach of the Jaguars, which is good news for us 49ers fans as everyone thought that Jacksonville would wait for Greg Roman

 

[Nzoric]

Ac, youre a Pats man too, right?

kelly to eagles! prolly means vick stays


im not even gonna talk about the bears' appt...

The Eagles won't keep Vick because he's too expensive. They can easily find the future through the draft that can run Kelly's offense. Keep in mind that Foles played under Rich Rod system at Arizona so he could fit well still.

The best part about it all is that Dallas hired Kiffin whose defense at USC allowed obscenely disgusting #'s to Kelly's Ducks. Philly trolled the ish out of Dallas

Foles never played under Rich Rod.

How long has Rich Rod been at Zona?

How long has Rich Rod been at Zona?

This season was his first.

 

[.zero]

I stand corrected

 

[Enron]

I think Rich Rod was there for the last month of Foles senior year. But I doubt he picked up much read-option.

Still Chip Kelly could do alright with him. Or draft EJ Manuel/Matt Scott as a project.

EJ can't throw Geno can
