DMX: Haley is undesirable after the Pittsburgh situation. He single-handedly sabotaged Big Ben.

Todd Haley does that to everybody every place he goes. I don't know why people continue to hire him. He's left on an awful note everywhere he's been.

This is what I ment by gimmacky. This utempo try and go fast don't let them substitute throw everywhere. This don't work here.[/quote

Look at the first two weeks. Y'all kill me with this 1000 yds of offense but it doesn't work show me one offensive scheme ever in history of the sport or a coach who will win a game with a **** defense and committing 4 turnovers, ill wait.

This really is gonna be the theme for people it's low hanging fruit. If you don't execute you can't win. Prior to this we had the leading rusher, receiver jn the nfl but it hasn't been working....please.

His offense didn't work.against the big boys in college either. When ever he played a good defense the **** didn't work.

Or it didn't work bc the big teams have better recruits than Oregon and could dominate the line of scrimmage with bigger guys which is where it would breakdown bc his whole offense is based on manipulating the defense with numerical advantages all over the field.. But keep the narrative running. Our d sucks and we will have to score 30per game. We had 4 turnovers, show me a team that will win consistently that way. Did it not work last week when we lost? People were saying that garbage then too. His offense is really just common sense, and number advantages on plays if the team doesn't execute then no offense or defense will work, period. it has literally NOTHING to do with running it in the nfl vs college. They executed horribly tonight didn't matter if we ran the west coast offense or the power I.

In spite of all of this we ran for over 200 yds the defense is the problem and it'll take more than a season for us to get personnel suited for the 3-4

Could be the worst Rooney hire of all time

The eagles haven't been good at home since they built the linc.

Are they that bad? Yes. 

But on that drive in particular they were just gassed.

 

[imlive365]

So nfl teams don't use this successfully?




Eagles still had 432 yards this game.. 264 rushing.. To go along with 5 turnovers

And chip Kelly lost all of 7 games in his time at oregon

Go look at those Oregon schedules. Once they played a team with a good defense they were slowed down. They scored a lot against average teams that didn't have athletes to match up with them. Once they were matched with atheltism it wasn't the same.

Lyon...i hear that about offensive statistical leaders. but a 1-2 record speaks for itself. whether or not you blame the defense, the offense for not playing 60 minutes, or whatever...i think point is that it was too early to say chip is going to be just fine in the NFL after one week.

i think to say it's not going to work at all is also an overreaction at this point. but there is A LOT of work left to do.

We were a 4 win team last year.. We overhauled the entire coaching staff..


Yes we have pieces to be successful, however we still have a long way to go

It's an overreaction to say he is and will be a failure. It's a overreaction to say he is revolutionizing the NFL. Patience...a lost virtue

So none of the 46 wins he had came against teams you think have "a good defense"?


Just the 7 losses.. 3 of which came in his first season

 

[don ramon]

NFC east killin it

literally killin' the sport we know as football

Yup... Again we were a 4 win team last year.. With a whole new coaching staff..


And Vick for as much as people may love him is extremely turnover prone.. We as a team were in the bottom 3 in turnover margin for the last 3 years

Cowboys might actually be able to clinch this division without even winning 8 games this season...

 

[checks grossman]

Marcus Vick  ‏@MVFive3h

And ur mom is a below average *****! RT @littleelmrules: @MVFive keep running your mouth Holmes! Your brother is such a below average qb

 Some type of way...

 

[shox23]

But seriously open up the CBA and get rid of these Thursday night games I can't remember a single good game.

 

[buc em]

Alex Smith's swag is on a trillion right now. This dude has been diddy boppin ever since he got to Kansas City.

[jecca650]

lol eagles fans chanting "colin kaepernick" while alex is getting interviewed?

[champcruthik]

Marcus Vick should not have access to Twitter. He's overly loyal to big bro.

 

[don ramon]

ahh those loveable philadelphia sports fans

they were supposed to interview andy reid after alex smith, but the small crowd of eagles fans were probably shouting obscenities at him

 

[jpzx]

Sounds like the NFC West in 2008.
