NoSaint Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 @ESPN_Numbers The Patriots had the fastest time per play in the NFL this season at 24.9 seconds. Under Chip Kelly- Oregon was 20.9. That's fast. #Eagles Going to be interesting to see how defenses try to keep up. makes sense - kelly worked with BB in the offseason. it really is about total offensive plays more than time of possession when you talk about grinding a team down. as long as he has success on 3rd downs, his own defense should be able to hang.

Mr. WEO Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 (edited) I Can't wait to see how many Bills Fans complain how cheap the Bills are for not getting Kelly when money wasn't the issue Not this one. He will have zero impact in the NFL. Zero. See "Steve Spurrier". Then, see "Bobby Petrino". Edited January 16, 2013 by Mr. WEO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mannc Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 (edited) @ESPN_Numbers The Patriots had the fastest time per play in the NFL this season at 24.9 seconds. Under Chip Kelly- Oregon was 20.9. That's fast. #Eagles Going to be interesting to see how defenses try to keep up. Contrary to popular belief, the Ducks did not run plays at blur speed at all times. They never huddle, but they have three different speeds (medium, fast and blur) at which they run plays and they change up the timing during the game. This prevents the defense from adjusting. It will definitely be interesting to see how he adapts to the pro game. I don't think he will just install the U of O system in Philly and let it rip, but certainly he will be aggressive and innovative. I predict he will be a big success and I'm jealous of the Eagles. Not unhappy with Marrone, though. Edited January 16, 2013 by mannc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Poojer Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 yeah i don't even know who he is, but i thought it was interesting...especially the part about stanford and the qb situation...but something tells me that he had a bigger payroll at Nike U then he will at Philly... evans says a lot of things. ive never been a big fan of his predictions.

RyanC883 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 i assume these means the eagles search was going poorly and they essentially privately told him to name his price and demands and got it finalized. im looking forward to seeing what his scheme does. with mccoy and brown in the backfield and jackson/maclin outside.... if he finds his qb it could be fun to watch. even if it flops, im curious as a fan of the game. Eagles def have the weapons, but they still need a QB who can run that offense. Wonder who the new Oregon coach will be. Nike will prob pay $$$$$$ to get a top coach there. Who is left? Lovie Smith??!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mannc Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Not this one. He will have zero impact in the NFL. Zero. See "Steve Spurrier". Then, see "Bobby Petrino". That is a lazy comparison. I can't say for sure that Kelly will succeed in the NFL, but to state that he will have "zero impact" because Petrino and Spurrier failed is utter nonsense. Kelly is infinitely smarter and harder working than either of those guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 If Spurrier could not make it I have little hope for Kelly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gale Gilbert Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 I'm thinking that Kelly might have heard that the NCAA is going to come down on Oregon more forcefully than he originally thought, and thought better of spurning the NFL again.

Supposedly, Mark Helfrich (Kelly's right-hand man) is set to take over. There are some boosters, however, who are pushing for a splashy hire like Chris Peterson of Boise State. I don't think that will happen though. I think they will go for continuity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. The NCAA has been investigating for a long time. This is the Pete Carroll story over again: take the big $$$ and clear out just before the Sheriff shows up.

Kelly is infinitely smarter and harder working than either of those guys. Not lazy. Spurrier was also regarded as an innovator in college who would bring his "fun and gun" game to the pros. It didn't happen. The Petrino reference was comparing Petrion's bolting from Louisville to the Falcons and back to the college before the end of the season. Given Kelly's very public vacillation between staying in Oregon, leaving for the NFL, then staying in Oregon, then leaving for the NFL--I thought the possibility that Kelly could pull a Petrino was possible, and the comparison was therefore obvious. I see no evidence so far that Kelly is "infinitely smarter" than Spurrier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
