dpberr Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 When you look at Philly you see a team that has no QB, no WRs, no healed and healthy MLBs between Alonso and Ryans (torn Achilles), no defensive backfield outside Byron Maxwell. They have a decent OL and DL. All football personeel decisions are being made by a coach with precisely TWO YEARS of NFL coaching experience and ten minutes of NFL personnel experience. Why would Gore leave a grease fire in SF to go play in the middle of a tire fire? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buftex Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 (edited) But chip = genius! @Deadspin: Report: Frank Gore had serious doubts about the Eagles' offense. http://t.co/smUHTSdGfm I don't think Kelly ever imagined Maclin bolting for KC. That was a bigger loss than they are letting on. Personally, I think Gore is a terrific fit for the Colts. Kind of adds that Anquan Boldin toughness and grittiness that they are lacking right now...

For the Eagles sake, Chip better know what he is doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Indy is the better team but their OL sucks a whole bunch. Will be a lot different than SF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Maybe next year when Greg Roman's been poached to be a head coach after winning a Superbowl we can get Chip to be OC [/sarcasm] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I know this is a double post, I came across this in the official Bills sitdown interview with Shady. It seems that he and Gore were friends, to the point where Shady was asking about Roman's system and what to expect: Greg (Roman) is an excellent guy. He’s very intelligent. He finds ways to get his running back the ball in space to make different plays,” McCoy said. “I’m very close with Frank Gore and Frank couldn’t stop saying positive things about coach. So it sounds like Greg and I are going to have the same vision and the same goals. I can say just the way he uses the back, he wants to make the guy the workhorse so we definitely agree on that. The main thing is to run the ball hard and get some guys up front to make some things happen.” I wonder if the way that Chip treated Shady had anything to do with Gore changing his mind.
