THE EAGLES HAVE FIRED CHIP KELLY!!!
about time. His hurry up offense didn’t work. All it did was get the offense off the field faster which resulted in the defense being on the field long and getting exhausted by the end of games/seasons. He couldn’t get the difference between how you treat NFL players(which are grown men), and how you treat College players(which are college kids). He kept treating the Eagles players like how he had treated college players and it didn’t work. Some players could stand it. He made moves last off season that didn’t work. It became obvious that he had lost the team. His last game game, a must win against Washington, was ugly. Even though the Eagles were 6-8, they still could have won the division if they had beaten both Washington and the Giants, but they blew it against Washington and now have a losing season. But it still shocks me. Even though I thought he should be fired, it seemed like Jeff Lurie(the owner of the Eagles) was going to give him more season. I certainly didn’t expect to see it happen with one game still left to be played. I wonder if Lurie told Kelly that he wanted to keep him as head coach, but not GM, and Kelly didn’t like that and it resulted in the parting of the ways. I am sure WIP, the local sports talk radio station will be talking about this for days and days. I wonder who the next coach will be . . .
