Sam Bradford: Bradford ends year with 320 yds, 2 TDs in win

This week the 6-9 Philadelphia Eagles fired their head coach Chip Kelly before the team traveled to the New York Giants who are also 6-9 on the season.

The Eagles are seeking a replacement for Chip Kelly, who was sacked last Tuesday by owner Jeffrey Lurie.

And I don’t know what that is.

“I think he’s proven [he can be a winner] the first two years”, Mariota said, according to another ESPN article. I would love to play for him. The last couple of games, from the Panthers game on I was playing a little banged up but that’s no excuse. “Obviously, I hope he gets serious consideration”.

Shurmur, 50, was the Rams’ offensive coordinator when Bradford was the No. 1 pick in the 2010 draft. New York has the same 6-9 record for the year and now head coach Tom Coughlin awaits his fate, as QB Eli Manning and the NY Giants have the home field advantage today. Staley’s interview fills Philadelphia’s requirement to comply with the Rooney Rule, which requires any team with a coaching vacancy to interview at least one minority candidate.

The biggest potential reason for the Eagles to hire Shurmur as a head coach or retain him as the offensive coordinator is his relationship with soon-to-be free agent quarterback Sam Bradford. Wait a second. An individual with knowledge of the Giants situation said that’s not going to happen. “Given the history I have with Pat, I think it would mean a lot to me”. He did a great job. “They fought tremendously hard. I thought the guys were focused”. Could Marcus Mariota be reunited with his former Head Coach at OR in Chip Kelly? He allowed Bradford more leeway in terms of audibles out of plays and into more advantageous calls. The Giants scored on one play after Sam Bradford was intercepted. Colin Kaepernick remains a dynamic talent, and the team is still only two years removed from finishing 12-4 and reaching the NFC Championship Game in 2013. “It brought back some good memories”.

“We’ve been working on some of those things all year”, Matthews said. “Because they played a whale of game, they get to experience that feeling you get when you win a football game one last time”.

“We have a quarterback that’s extremely smart”. The two sides could work out a long-term contract, unless Bradford doesn’t feel he’d fit with a new coach. Players don’t have to like their head coaches to play their best, but they do have to respect the coach’s ability to lead the team and believe he has the team’s best intentions at heart. Another rumored lead candidate: Chief’s offensive coordinator Doug Pederson who followed Andy Reid to Kansas City. The Eagles could opt to be aggressive in trying to sign Bradford to a long-term deal, but he might not be worth the risk.
