Mort: Chip Kelly is the new coach of the Philadelphia Eagles
 
Quote:

In a stunning and unexpected reversal, Oregon head coach Chip Kelly has reportedly agreed to become the new head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles.

ESPN’s Chris Mortensen reported on Wednesday that Kelly had taken the job. Neither the Eagles nor Oregon has confirmed the news.

Significant reversal, and the NFCE just got much more interesting.

This came out of nowhere. Nothing confirmed, but Chris Mortensen just tweeted it.

So does that doom Vick to the JEST rumors? :o

Not surprising, i always said that Chip kelly always wanted to succeed Andy Reid and he was going to hold out until he stepped down...........................

I'm pretty sure Reid just sold his house in Philly, we all should have seen this coming.

I wonder if they keep Vick now. Vick seems to be the best option already in the system to run Kelly's up tempo offense. Of course, I also expect them to draft a quarterback. Perhaps Klein?

Ugh, this is BS. Why Chip, why?

I don't see why it wouldn't. Kelly is probably going to draft a quarterback then let him sit behind Vick for a year or so as he grows into the system.

The one thing that makes me happy about this is it puts to rest that awful rumor that Kelly is waiting for BB's job.
