2nd Half – DET 24, PHI 7

Posted: November 26th, 2015 | Author: Tommy Lawlor | Filed under: Philadelphia Eagles | 251 Comments »

More of the same.

The offense started fine, but then hit a wall.

The defense is just struggling.

Ugh.

At least we’ve got stuffing.

Rough game. Davis isnt a good DC. Maybe average but not good. Hes had 3 years to build the D and its still average to bad. At least we should get a decent draft pick for a qb.
2 Mordy said at 2:10 PM on November 26th, 2015:
what a mess
3 ACViking said at 2:10 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Body language of the team is terrible

Defense is lost. No running game poor pass blocking.
5 Mitchell said at 2:10 PM on November 26th, 2015:
The Lions are taunting the Eagles at every turn as well. No fight.
6 Dragon_Eagle said at 2:11 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Next coach nominees?
7 TypicalDouche said at 2:12 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Chip will be the coach next year. DC will be different for sure.
8 ChoTime said at 2:27 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Best not to make any predictions at this point. Things went from bad (the season) to worse (the last two games).
9 fran35 said at 2:38 PM on November 26th, 2015:
The damn thing is that Billy Davis is a likeable enough guy. Seems like a genuine nice guy. Chip Kelly is an absolute ass, a complete Narcissist.
10 Matt Hoover said at 3:14 PM on November 26th, 2015:
I want John Gruden and Tony Dungy to be asked to interview if both decline I would then push hard for Jim Mora Jr he would take it however if he said no then Hugh Jackson from the bengals, again he would take it but if not my last resort is tom cable the Seahawks oline coach, I believe both cable and Jackson got raw deals on Oakland and both have done excellent since
11 JoeBlow said at 3:34 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Jim Mora jr??? if you thought Chip was arrogant and cocky…..
12 Matt Hoover said at 3:38 PM on November 26th, 2015:
He knows how to coach in the NFL and I never said I thought chip was cocky or
Arrogant
13 ACViking said at 2:13 PM on November 26th, 2015:
I don’t remember a game where the opposing receivers have been so open.
Maybe that’s the NFL — and why, after every game, we hear about how Eagles receivers run wide open but the QB does not get them the ball.
14 Dragon_Eagle said at 2:14 PM on November 26th, 2015:
“I don’t remember a game where the opposing receivers have so open.”
Alzheimer’s?
15 TypicalDouche said at 2:14 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Why does it surprise you that the Eagles give up yards over the middle every play?.Same story for the last 5 years.
16 Kevin Ryan said at 2:15 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Can we please get rid of Billy Davis? Rookie on HOF received with no help is stupid at the backyard level. Team looks asleep, Chip’s play-calling is just as bad. I could stomach the losses but the complete lack of effort and heart shows the coaches have lost this team.
17 JohnDoe610 said at 2:15 PM on November 26th, 2015:
So who do we think will be the next Eagles coach? Chip is done at the end of the season, right?
18 Dragon_Eagle said at 2:21 PM on November 26th, 2015:
I want someone from the pros and with real leadership skills. No more college “geniuses.” Someone who delegates to the OC and DC and keeps their eye on the big picture. I want the early career AR equivalent.
19 JohnDoe610 said at 2:24 PM on November 26th, 2015:
The only college coach I’d want is Harbaugh. That’s why I’d want to keep Chip another year. I don’t see any good candidates.
20 TypicalDouche said at 2:22 PM on November 26th, 2015:
No way Chip is done unless he leaves on his own.
21 JohnDoe610 said at 2:25 PM on November 26th, 2015:
I don’t dislike Chip. And given the other options out there I’d prefer to keep him. The only coach I would get excited about is Harbaugh and he ain’t leaving Ann Arbor.
22 Joe Minx said at 2:16 PM on November 26th, 2015:
This halftime show is as exciting as the Eagles offense.
23 anon said at 2:16 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Tanking for a qb??? Why is Rowe on Megatron?
24 Joe Minx said at 2:17 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Because Billy Davis.
25 ACViking said at 2:17 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Rowe had more reps than any backup DB in the NFL
26 ian_no_2 said at 3:16 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Flinch for Lynch
27 Kevin Ryan said at 2:17 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Byron Maxwell is Namdi’s equal, no heart half assed effort. The defense has no fight in them at all, they should be disgusted by themselves and Barwin and Graham are at their homecoming. Make a play guys, it’s not that difficult.
28 anon said at 2:19 PM on November 26th, 2015:
I thought that curry sack would made a difference .DET knows we can’t stop them .

You have a very bad memory if you truly believe that.

34 Kevin Ryan said at 2:19 PM on November 26th, 2015:
I say bring back Chucki and get Stafford in the offseason. Let Demario run straight ahead instead of EW. Aikman nailed it earlier in the broadcast when he said both Chip and Davis are stupidly stubborn. Rookie on HOF receiver with no help, Demarco not running HIS way, running Chip’s way and results for both have been brutal.
35 Dragon_Eagle said at 2:21 PM on November 26th, 2015:
I’m on board with this.

I think you may be on to something. I think hes tanking.
40 ACViking said at 2:21 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Regarding talent and a franchise QB …
Any coach can win no matter what the scheme.
Look at Whisenhunt.
The NFL should go back to the pre-1979 rules of allowing bump-and-run all over the field.
It’ll level the playing field. The way things are now though, the team is no chance without a great quarterback
41 BlindChow said at 2:27 PM on November 26th, 2015:
I don’t see that making a difference with this team. Our DB’s are never near enough to the receivers to touch them.
42 ChoTime said at 2:30 PM on November 26th, 2015:
It’s my understanding they have been favoring the offense based on the perception that casual fans despise low-scoring games, and that QBs have been the beneficiary of the changes.
43 jpate said at 2:29 PM on November 26th, 2015:
They are only running to give stafford arm a break
44 BlindChow said at 2:29 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Defensive line playing only for stats now. Nothing suspicious about three guys getting a free run at the QB!
45 Iskar36 said at 2:30 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Interesting…. a team can have a bunch if drops… but still be leading by 17
46 Iskar36 said at 2:34 PM on November 26th, 2015:
I know we want to rotate players, but with MS2 in, we are playing 10 on 11.
47 Crus57 said at 2:35 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Rowe having whatever the defensive equivalent of the Winston Justice game is
48 Patrick said at 2:39 PM on November 26th, 2015:
A rookie CB who hasn’t gotten any playing time constantly left 1-on-1 with fucking Megatron. Sure Calvin isn’t who he used to be, but Billy Davis fucking blows. I said it when he was hired. He has been getting out coached consistently throughout his stay, and it might be the saving grace for Chip who can fire Davis after the season.
49 BlindChow said at 2:35 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Well, at least Rowe saw the ball coming this time…
50 DamonL86 said at 2:35 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Oh well
51 Mitchell said at 2:36 PM on November 26th, 2015:
For the first time I can remember, Chip looks nervous.
52 fran35 said at 2:40 PM on November 26th, 2015:
I think the same thing. His eyes betray him.
53 jpate said at 2:40 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Dallas game he looked embarrassed. Today he looks lost and yes nervous.
54 Mitchell said at 2:37 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Rowe has been in good position but you cant expect a rookie to match up with freaking Calvin Johnson. Davis is a dope.
55 Aaron said at 2:37 PM on November 26th, 2015:
how can he not adjust, how, how, how
56 Mitchell said at 2:37 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Like I said. Hes a dope.
57 Aaron said at 2:39 PM on November 26th, 2015:
can they not look at the standings and see it’s one game and they’re back in it, its like the whole dang team is wanting to get fired
58 teltschikfakeout88 said at 2:37 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Uhhh are we playing football or not…looks like the lions are playing pitch and catch…another week of the same ole bullshizz…unbelievable as to what has happened in a year…one year ago today we were riding high after a Dallas win…fast forward and I see listless Eagles team that has been tipped apart for supposedly the betterment but yet the product is anything but..I had thought our floor was .500….don’t think we win another FB game this year…pathetic
59 anon said at 2:38 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Chip must like what he saw in Geoff
60 Mitchell said at 2:40 PM on November 26th, 2015:
I think you and I are on the same wavlength. I think he tried Bradford, saw it wasnt working and decided to tank. Would you put it past him?
61 ChoTime said at 2:42 PM on November 26th, 2015:
You need to be Hinkie/Rasputin level voodoo on the owner in order to be able to pull that off.
62 anon said at 3:30 PM on November 26th, 2015:
No it’s clear .We aren’t trying . If we wanted to win we would have played Bradford. Question is how to keep guys motivated for 5 more games and off-season .
63 ACViking said at 2:38 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Another eight minute drive against the defense coming out of halftime.
Lions have had the ball 26 of the last 32 minutes
64 Dragon_Eagle said at 2:38 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Our defense played well for about 9 games and suddenly fell off a cliff.
Hypothesis: Here is the 16-game season effect of not caring about time of possession. In a game our defense gets tired, but over a season, it also has its effect.
The above plus Billy Davis’s inability to make any adjustments.
65 Crus57 said at 2:39 PM on November 26th, 2015:
It also coincided with Hicks getting injured, and he was the guy wearing the headset and getting the D set on the field
66 BlindChow said at 2:40 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Hicks might be the best thing to come out of the Chip Kelly era…
67 Mitchell said at 2:42 PM on November 26th, 2015:
That’s sad.
68 ChoTime said at 2:40 PM on November 26th, 2015:
If the whole D is reliant on one lucky rookie pick to save them, they truly do suck.
69 Dragon_Eagle said at 2:40 PM on November 26th, 2015:
True. Good point. We do miss Hicks. But seriously, geez, he was a rookie. If your Defense was dependent on a rookie ILB, there is a deeper problem.

Would turn this craptastic shizz show but at a family members house who has the game on as background….would love to come back on the board and be called out for not being a fan and see we came back..don’t see it happening…and just like that J Matthews got

74 Iskar36 said at 2:44 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Yea, that was bad. This is atrocious and I’m sick and tired of reading about Chips first two seasons. He has been BAD this year and the excuses are dumb.
75 fran35 said at 2:47 PM on November 26th, 2015:
The first 2 years thing is erroneous as hell anyway. Last year we looked so bad for the last 7 games. Didn’t we have a 6 game losing streak or something? Couple that with this stinker of a season, and even Lawlor can’t defend the genius/Tao of Chip Kelly.
76 Aaron said at 2:43 PM on November 26th, 2015:
that was quicker than 40 secs,
77 BlindChow said at 2:43 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Hopefully we look better against the Lions’ backups?
78 jaws80 said at 2:44 PM on November 26th, 2015:

Cary Williams just got benched playing with Sherman, Chancellor and earl thomas
86 ChoTime said at 2:47 PM on November 26th, 2015:
7-38.
87 fran35 said at 2:48 PM on November 26th, 2015:
I disagree. Cary actually had games that he looked really good. Maxwell hasn’t had one yet.
88 JoeBlow said at 2:49 PM on November 26th, 2015:
he had 4 in a row
89 fran35 said at 2:51 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Come again? Obviously your eyes must see something different than I do. Has he made a play all freakin year?
90 JoeBlow said at 2:53 PM on November 26th, 2015:
maybe someone can dig up the the stat for me but he had a stretch of 4 games where he gave up an average of 3 catches, 35 yards and no td’s
91 fran35 said at 3:00 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Just as our offense has been decent from a statistical standpoint, anyone who knows from watching the games that those are empty stats. The offense doesn’t pass the eyeball test. That is how I feel about maxwell. Even though he is not hemorrhaging lately, I believe it is because we have been bleeding elsewhere. He is still just as ripe as he was earlier in the season when he got torched by such luminaries as Willie Snead
92 JoeBlow said at 3:02 PM on November 26th, 2015:
he gave up one play against snead for 16 yards…..the rest of sneads yards came against carroll and when safeties were covering him in the slot……and i know willie snead isn’t a household name but he has had a lot of good games this year
93 ChoTime said at 3:47 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Has he done anything, or have teams simply gouged us for low-hanging fruit that’s even easier than taking advantage of him?
94 JoeBlow said at 3:54 PM on November 26th, 2015:
i’m not sure what your expecting? He’s not deion sanders and is going to take pick sixes back to the house, although he tackles like him at times. Im not saying he’s a great corner and im not saying he’s worth his contract, he is clearly not any of those things. But the question was if he is better than Cary and i think he is.
plus idk if it’s coaching or what but if the scheme or gameplan is him to play 7 yards off every guy he covers then he really doesn’t have a chance to start with. He should be up on the ball jamming the receiver
95 ChoTime said at 4:02 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Not getting burnt for 50 yard touchdowns is good. Giving up 5 yard completions at will in order to not give up 50 yard touchdowns is… still not good.
96 JoeBlow said at 4:07 PM on November 26th, 2015:
i agree….but i think a lot of that has to do with scheme
97 ChoTime said at 4:10 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Not to belabor a point, but I think Cary Williams could give up 5 yard completions in order not to give up 50 yard ones too.
98 JoeBlow said at 4:13 PM on November 26th, 2015:
i gotcha
99 Mitchell said at 2:49 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Yes he has.
100 fran35 said at 2:52 PM on November 26th, 2015:
That is your opinion. Mine differs.
101 Mitchell said at 3:05 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Its no its not an opinion its a fact. As stated above he had a few very good games.
102 fran35 said at 3:14 PM on November 26th, 2015:
No. It’s your opinion. You said he played well, which is your opinion. If you said his statistics were good, then that would be factual. Something like Evan Turners statistics when he was with the Sixers. See what I’m doing with this? Your opinion is that maxwell has played well. Mine is that he has not. I did not say he was terrible at all times this season. You said he played well. Which is rsther bold, but you are entitled to your opinion. But my opinion is that he has not played well.
103 Aaron said at 2:56 PM on November 26th, 2015:
no he hasnt

Negadelphian!
111 Gary Barnes said at 2:47 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Offense continues to be absolutely awful with NO adjustments by Chip. Lions know exactly what is coming and the 3 and outs pile up.
Defense has finally buckled under the pressure of playing 40+ mins a game and injuries. They have been putrid the last two games.
ST is nothing special, maybe it never was, maybe last season was a fluke, but this year the mediocrity is noticeable.
Who knows if this team has given up on Chip, but they certainly look like it to me
112 teltschikfakeout88 said at 2:49 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Word… This post neatly describes this team …we done…be watching college basketball and bowl games for top prospects etc..

114 myartz04 said at 2:49 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Hey let’s give credit to Billy for adjusting!! Instead of a corner, he lined up a safety on megatron!!

I’ll bring this up again when Tommy has had a chance to recover, but…
You can’t say that Lurie isn’t at least considering a coaching change. Its one thing to lose, have a bad record like 5-11 or 6-10. Its completely different when you get destroyed by bad and mediocre teams. This is horribly embarrassing. Yeah, once it happens. multiple times?
The 2015 Philadelphia Eagles are arguably the worst team in the league right now.
117 Aaron said at 2:51 PM on November 26th, 2015:

* Donnie Jones is so clutch;
* It’s good to see Eric Rowe get a feel for top receivers;
* Billy Davis is getting to see what doesn’t work;
* People who say Tebow is better than Sanchez – well, folks, I just don’t see it;
* Returners not taking the ball out – the right decision;
* This is the Joique Bell I know;
* Miles Austin has only been targeted once so far – what gives?!;
* Dennis Kelly just looks like a football player. Doesn’t he?

Chip is treating this team like that girl you date in Highschool that you don’t really like but you keep around for practice until you get the one you really do want. Or my theory that Jerrah Jones employed him to destroy our whole franchise holds weight. Who has bought a jersey this year? Who would still show up to the stadium to watch this garbage? Who the hell doesn’t miss Shady?

153 BlindChow said at 3:11 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Seeing how Kendricks is playing today, it now makes complete sense that we signed him to an extension.
154 JoeBlow said at 3:12 PM on November 26th, 2015:
that is one signing mostly everyone approved of too, i know he was injured earlier but holy cow has he been awful
155 daveH said at 3:35 PM on November 26th, 2015:
yep I was glad to keep him… whoops
but democo is over also. too bad.

What’s the points against record? We still have 10+ minutes to go. Place in history on the line, perhaps.
160 Kohlhaas said at 3:12 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Put Lewis in. Why keep Sanchez in the game? I don’t get it. He’s done.
161 Kohlhaas said at 3:16 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Brilliant!!! Run out of bounds and take the loss instead of throwing it away. Yeah, Sanchez is done
162 Matt Hoover said at 3:16 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Anyone blaming Davis for this mess needs to remember it’s chips offense that’s costing the defense. No defense would hold up with the amount of time on the field the Eagles defense is asked to play….I will say Davis isn’t impressive leaving Rowe on an island with no help against a hall of famer
163 BlindChow said at 3:16 PM on November 26th, 2015:
It can be two things.

90 points allowed over two games …
Most since 1972 when the 2-11-1 Eagles gave up 90 points combined to the Giants and Cowboys.
166 George said at 3:17 PM on November 26th, 2015:
90 and counting

Yes!

Time to cheer losing so we can get that sweet, sweet high draft pick!

Only sweet if we have competent talent evaluators in place. Currently we do not.
170 BlindChow said at 3:19 PM on November 26th, 2015:
That’s true. Cleveland has had perennial high draft picks…

With no second…..
172 Dragon_Eagle said at 3:18 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Crap. If you’re not gonna put Thad Lewis in, at least let Celek play QB. Can’t be any worse.

I actually like Celek, I wouldn’t inflict that on him.

Here’s a thought…the butterfly effect. What would have happened if Chip cut Riley instead of giving him a raise?
176 ChoTime said at 3:54 PM on November 26th, 2015:
We would have some other bad WR who’s not very good at blocking?
177 ACViking said at 3:20 PM on November 26th, 2015:
I wonder if Kelly brought in “Kelly-type players” when he first arrived in 2013, the Eagles would have won 20 games over the past two seasons, not counting this year
178 Dragon_Eagle said at 3:24 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Sadly, DeSean, Mathis and McCoy clearly showed they could play in Chips’ offense and well. Chip showed he couldn’t handle their personalities and get them on board. Poor leadership skills.
179 BlindChow said at 3:20 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Why is Stafford even in the game lol

Gotta get a qb. Gotta tank. What else are you going to do? Win 10 games and be mediocre?
196 Mitchell said at 3:38 PM on November 26th, 2015:
It seems to be the only way at this point. The coach nees to get HIS qb. It may have been Chips biggest pitfall.
197 anon said at 3:39 PM on November 26th, 2015:
I think he saw Sammy sucked. Season is over team is not good. They have to go to the draft. Sucks 27/2 screwed us out of 2-3 franchise guys .

In total agreement.
199 Mr. Magee said at 3:39 PM on November 26th, 2015:
You can’t be serious… QB is the answer??
200 Mitchell said at 3:42 PM on November 26th, 2015:
Better qb means less 3 and outs means less defense on the field means more points for us and less for the other team.
201 Mr. Magee said at 6:37 PM on November 27th, 2015:
Oh, I see. Well we just need a good QB then, LOL.

He needs to monitor his own sleep.

was asked if he thought his players give 100%, chip said yes. Then asked “well if you say they give 100%, and are still losing like this, then does that mean you are the problem”?…..Chip said “idk….maybe”

Sean Payton

Adam Gase
Kyle Shannahan
Josh McDaniels (hoping he learmed from his mistakes)
I want a break from the college coach
243 anon said at 4:10 PM on November 26th, 2015:
All those guys will fail without a qb. Have to tank to get a qb .There is no one else available. No ammo to trade up . Murray sucks though
244 kajomo said at 5:53 PM on November 26th, 2015:
I think Sam had improved has improved as the season went on. I think he will continue to improve with a healthy offseason. I’d keep him, improve the OL and WR positions, and slow the pace down. Our D has been completeky worn down due to the pace and lack of success on offense.
245 Gian GEAGLE said at 5:25 PM on November 26th, 2015:
You wish! I wish!.. Unfortumately there is about 2 decades worth of data that says No CHANCE Lurie Fires chip after his first down year with two years left on his deed….LUrie is definitely going to give chip another year.
..
Chip could walk away, but I find that hard to believe because he is a proud guy who worked hard to get to this point, and I think he really likes coaching the pros, and he needs to be at peace with givng up ALL his pro aspirations in order for him to walk away and leave the mess that he created this year. If he does that, he probably won’t ever get another shot in the NFL… So it’s more likely that the season ends, he takes a long 4-5 months break from the media, comes back to coach us next year and try to rebuild his stock a little bit. After next season, LUrie woudl need to make a decision on him anyway, he would have to extend him, because no one goes into 5th year as a lame duck coach. So if chip doesn’t do a good enough job to earn an extension, they amicably split, work out a buyout for the last year after Chip improved the team some, rebuilding some of his stock, try and salvage a chance at another NFL opportunity in the future.
..
After Demanding GM power, make no mistake, chip threatened to leave to get this power, so after demanding this power, and making a complete mess of this franchise, if he quits on LUrie and runs back to college, he would be disgraced like lane kiffin and Spurrier and would kill any hope to ever work in the NFL again, and I have a hard time seeing him disgrace his reputation. Quoting is basically like Selling Low after Buying High… Even if he is planning his exit strategy from Philly, I think he has to come back and try to rebuild his stock a bit, before he leaves… After all. This is going to spiral out of control and be SO BAD this season, that he is setting the bar extremely low so it won’t be hard for him to get this team to show some grpwth next year, build his reputation up a bit, and when lUrie declines to extend him, they work out a buyout because no one goes into a contract year as a lame duck these years, so he will be able to save some face…
..
Whether we like it or not, it will be at least 1 more year of the chip show

251 Gian GEAGLE said at 5:10 PM on November 26th, 2015:
There is no hope, for one simple reason, chip holds NO ONE accountable. There is literally NOTHING a player can do to get himself benched, let alone make a guy innactive on Gameday, and chip damn sure won’t Fire or cut anyone.. No ones job is ever at risk, and they all know it.
..
after Miles Austin showed one of the worst games I ever seen from a WR the past 3 weeks was he Cut? Was he demoted to innactive? Was he even benched? Of course Not… This Detroit game was still within reach and on a big 3rd down, inexplicably they went to Miles Austin, and Aikmen commented on what a Terrible route he ran and Sanchez didn’t stand a chance… But at this point, how can I blame Miles Austin? He is what he is, WASHED UP. there is NOTHING miles Austin can do about it, yet Chip still wasting everyone’s time putting him on the field, and Sanchez tried to throw to him. Miles Austin is the worst player on the roster. I don’t blame him for being who he is. I BLAME Chip, the joke of a WR coach and Sanchez…
..
A starting Running back for New England fumbles the ball, he doesn’t get another carry the rest of the game… lions and Miami looked as Horrible as we do, they refused to accept it, fired people who were grossly underperforming, and it actually sparked Miami and Lions and now they play better football than the Eagles…. But under chip, doesn’t matter how bad it is, doesn’t matter how much you fail, nothing is going to happen with you, we will continue to run the same 10 plays out of the same 3 formatipns, all out of shotgun of course..
..
Chips Offense has been such a mess, even what was a vastly improved Defense has become completely demoralized and what was the only bright spot of the season, now has also imploded… Today our defense was gutless. They can’t do anything right, and while they deserve part of the blame absoluteky, what do you really expect when the defense not only has to play against the opponent Every week, but they also have to play against our HEADCoach, because he damn sure HASNT done a single thing to try and help this defense.. He took their good play for granted all year, and kept piling on them, asking way too much of them, and now everyone is demoralized and the defense has imploded and started to play down to the level of chips offense. Instead of doing anything to help our defense,chip just took them for granted and kept piling on and on…. Just Look at today for Proof. offense hasn’t done shit in weeks. Negative 9 yards total in the second quarter. Does chip try to do anything different? Of course not? Does he try to call a trick play like throw it to a WR on a screen, and then let the WR throw down field and try and catch a defense slipping? How about a reverse? How about take 1 shot down field?
..
You know your defense has started to implode, your offense hung them out to dry all day. jason Peters is out, you have a backup QB in that has struggled, and your offense has been struggling for weeks, do you adjust, and slow it the fuck down? Of course not.. THIS IS NO EXAGGERATION, LOOK IT UP:
Today there was a stretch with 5 drives, all 3 and outs, that combined for a total of 2minutes and 54 seconds… That’s a disgrace of a coaching job…Basically today, chip Kelly Helped make it a shoutout type game with an offense that has been shooting blanks all year like some limped dick 90yr old who’s Viagra ran out, and this Doufus, continues with this ridiculous tempo… God forbid this coach does one damn thing to help this defense.. Nope. Took it for granted all year, and now they have become just as inepts as his offense has been all year..
..
Either Chip is a fraud that isn’t well versed in offensive footbal, and really only knows like 13 offensive plays and two formations, or he is losing his fucking mind. There is So Much he can try to catch an opponent of balance and try and spark a turn around, and he doesn’t attempt ANYTHING… Just continue with the same shit that isn’t working…
…
We will NEVER find out. But now that in year 3 chip ISNT catching defensive coordinators completely off guard and they understand what he is doing, I would love to give an opposing coach Truth Syrum and ask him how much easier is it to prepare for Chips offense compared to most of the other pro offense operations that a DC has to prepare for thruout the season.. I would imagine it’s easier to figure out chips offenses tendencies than a chameleon offense like the Patriots…
..
