    ....some legs.
    Philadelphia Eagles coach Chip Kelly: Should he stay or should he go? - Philadelphia Eagles Blog- ESPN
    Schefter: "Signs seem to be piling up against a Chip return"

    As long as he isn't given the role of GM, too...and hopefully he has the good sense NOT to try and fix what ain't broke, on defense (keeping LeBeau and Horton)...I'd be all in on Kelly.

    With him having his ultimate protoge at QB (would love to try and trade Mettenberger to Washington for RGIII, as a backup). People forget, Kelly was fairly successful the previous 2 seasons...without a QB that fits his system. And all the talk about how changing offenses can be damaging to a young NFL QB....MM8 knows Kelly's offense better than he knows Whisenhunt's. So, there is that. He can hit the ground running, whereas, bringing in a Hugh Jackson or someone else might set Mariota back a bit.

    Just watching the bengals this year, i think jackson wpuld design around mm rather than putting him into a "system". He's starting to grow on me, along with kelly. Both of them would be great pickups, if we keep the d staff.

    Pass. I'm tired of the FO bringing in unsuccessful staff (and players) thinking that they'll perform better here.

    I'd be good with this as long as he isn't GM.

    Since we have an opening, I think we'd be stupid not to take a crack at letting him run the show with MM8, and a few big WR's in Hunter and DGB +Wright and Walker. Plus, if he keeps Lebeau and Horton, he only has to shore up the offense.

    He has the weapons...we just need a solid RT. This team is more suited, personnel-wise to Kelly than what he has in Philly. The guy had an awesome track record at Oregon, and was successful the previous 2 seasons, at Philly...I just think he'd need to consult with Lebeau on how to adapt his offense to the NFL, so it can sustain success over the long haul...not just a year or two, until DC's figure out how to stop it.

    The good news is we don't have any playmakers for him to randomly ship off.

    Everyone saying he will go to college...

    Don't you think he wants a chance with another NFL with Mariota as his QB? And I'm sure he would want to shove it in Eagles faces they made a mistake letting him go. I think he would have a lot of motivation to succeed in the NFL.

    He had success the previous 2 seasons, at Philly. He has a QB problem now that Bradford went down, and Sanchez is proving to not be a suitable fill-in...just as Mettenberger let a lot of people down, this season.

    Kelly has all he needs here, to run his system...just needs a major upgrade at RT (draft OT Tunsil in the 1st), and maybe a bell cow RB...if Cobb doesn't show out the rest of the season.
