Good luck, Chip - you're going to need it.

 

[CISGS]

Could help return Kaepernick to being decent again

"Thorough." Jed York doesn't have a thorough bone in his body. Impulse is his middle name.

Things that make you go "hmmmmmm..."

I think Kelly's a good, innovative coach. While he shot himself in the foot over personnel in Philly, I don't think he got adequate support from Eagles ownership. Glad he's still in the league.

Great move genius... With a 6-10 record in the 5hittiest division in the league, to the best one.... Putting a hundo he's gone in a year.

 

[manxman2601]

NFC West really is the most interesting division currently and the weakest team just became more interesting.

[Dr Pain]

I am glad to hear this. I think he has some good ideas and will have learned from his Eagles experience

 

[Love The Drake]

Well there goes the Kelly to OC pipedream
I was hoping for

 

[meatface]

Have the Eagles had any interest in McDaniels or Patricia? they are running out of guys to hire

 

[Kontradiction]

The Titans are complete idiots for not bringing him in. I wonder what he's going to do with Crapernick.

 

[manxman2601]

Hmmmm.

 

[Kontradiction]

Hmmmm.

Yeesh.

 

[primetime]

I think it's a good fit.

 

[Deus Irae]

Good luck, Chip - you're going to need it.

Tom Gamble, who was Kelly's choice in Philly before becoming a casualty in the Roseman wars, is in place in S.F.. With him, Kelly has a personnel guy who knows what he wants for players. Kelly will also have a QB who can run, which his offense really calls for. We should see Kaepernick playing a style more akin to his earliest years than what we saw last season.

What would be interesting to me is if Kelly also brought in RGIII. That would make for both an interesting QB battle and the potential rehabilitation (or not) of 2 NFL QB careers.

 

[IcyPatriot]

Hope Chip does well .... I like some excitement for the 4:00 games ... go get'em Chip.

 

[sportnik]

If the organization supports him the way Belichick is supported here, he'll be a great coach. Following the Tomosula clown show won't hurt.

 

[VrabelMayeWin]

Kelly never got the right QB in Philly. It will be fascinating to see if he can make it work with Kaepernick. Say what you will about Kaepernick, he's very well suited for Kelly's offense.
