Former Eagles Coach Kelly Not Given Enough Time
“We as players didn’t do a good enough job”, Ertz said.
After three seasons, the Philadelphia Eagles fired head coach Chip Kelly this past Tuesday.
Bradford has thrown 17 touchdowns and 13 interceptions in leading the Eagles to a 6-7 record as a starter.
Buffalo Bills running back LeSean McCoy – Played 12 games, rushed for 895 yards with three touchdowns, 4.4 yards per carry.
“But it is disappointing to look at coaches like Coach [Greg] Schiano, or Coach [Mike] Shanahan, or Coach Kelly, or guys like that”, Belichick added.
Lurie admitted it was a “bold move” on his part to give Kelly personnel control after back-to-back 10-6 seasons, feeling at the time he had to give the head coach the power to pick his players.
DeMarco Murray personifies what went wrong with Chip Kelly’s final season as head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles. Pretty much everyone is on a one-year contract in this league. “I don’t know how you build a program in one year”. Kelly says that he’s grateful for his opportunity with the team and that his players meant the world to him. Besides, even if the college kids hate Kelly’s system or Harbaugh’s over-competitiveness, they’ll be out in a year or too, and the coaches will have another team of wide-eyed players with big time dreams. He does a great job.
Still, Belichick expressed disappointment at the fact that coaches he deems to be capable have had their tenures ended before they could insert their programs completely. Look, I’m not there. “But all in all, I know he cared about the players, but I don’t think he had the best way to go about things”. He did a good job with that team. “I think whoever Mr. Lurie decides to choose, it would be a great fit for us”. “I don’t mind entertaining a couple of general questions about it. This is really about our kids and what they did this year”.
“I actually got a call from Trey Burton”, said Matthews.
Murray said he wants a new coach who has a connection with the players “mentally and emotionally as well”. The coach ignored complaints about being overworked in practice, according to Johnson, and an unwillingness to accept input from players created a bad environment in which fear and paranoia reigned supreme. “Very rarely do you have those scenarios in the NFL”. So Thursday’s defense of fired Philadelphia coach Chip Kelly seemed out of left field. “But when the team started losing, stuff started to come out”. Since that time, he returned to the Patriots, and has been in charge of one of the best offenses in the NFL.
