This One's On Kelly -- SQUARELY On Kelly

[Maniac]

Besides that, we ALL knew this team was not going to win them all, after all the hype this past week, they needed this loss.

I would much rather give this non-conf, non-div. game away and have these guys get focused now.

JMHO

I basically agree with this. They arent going to win the division but hopefully a learning opportunity.

However I will allow DJax his mistakes since he is half the offense. You take some bad with the good.

[Kelly Green]

Granted, But Kelly Was Andy Reid II When It Came To Clock Management

All that time on the clock and he holds his three time outs? For WHAT? For WHO?? And what happened to spreading the offense and giving Vick the optiobn to RUN on the last series? Passes to Avante? Hell, he might as well have been throwing to ME!

[Raptor]

It's only his second game, if he is making these errors in year two then Ill join you in the critique.

So far from what I can tell from my couch Kelly is very capable of making adjustments.

They currently have bigger issues, like finding some solid safeties and coverage guys.

Kelly owns the defense too. He's gonna have to fix that.

Agreed but it appears he must have a multi year plan as there is not alot you can do with the personnel on D and they have not attempted to fix it in the off season.

Well they would have no problem hitting you between the numbers on the pass

[Raptor]

Don't think the problem is scheme

As much as its talent, but it still needs to be addressed, perhaps we will see more of Wolfe?

Chip doesn't play defense does he?? Too many stupid penalties on 3rd down. And as great as Cary Williams looked this week, he was abysmal this week. How can you grab the jersey, right in front of the official?? That's inexcusable. At least three times, they had the Chargers at 3rd down, incomplete pass that got waved off because of a defensive holding, PI, etc. giving the Chargers another set of downs.

totally agree. i'm not holding him responsible for the defense this season. but it's his responsibility to bring in the personnel - players and coaches - to get it fixed. Howie's too.

Yeah, If they do not improve the defense over the course of this season and next season then heads need to roll

[AnnapolisEagle]

Chip needed to do better using the clock at the end of that last drive. I'm disappointed in that. But this loss is hardly on the offense.

That was my only complaint. You should be looking to win or tie on that drive and not leave them any time.

But, honestly...the Eagles were lucky to be in the game at that point=since the Chargers coughed up the ball twice deep in the red zone.

30 pts against a very average team should be enough...

But you are forgetting the Eagles are still a 4-12 shitty team. So teams could put 30 pts or more on them.

[Anthony]

Can't blame Chip. They need to tighten up this D and he can't coach scared until they get better either. He has to coach his way so when the D does get good again it will all hopefully click.
