They're third in the league in yards per game and tied for 9th in points per game, largely because of the turnovers against KC.
Vick threw one really bone-headed INT last week (the pick-six...the other one was bad, too, but sometimes you're gonna have bad throws and bad decisions). Add in the drive they didn't complete because of Kelce's botched snap and the 16 points in the KC game is lower than expected based on their yards gained.
Guys are going to get plenty of looks. Kelly's entire philosophy is to force the defense to leave somebody free or some space unoccupied, then put the ball there. Celek has had several big catches along with Ertz (who couldn't hold on to a TD pass one other time). And the last thing I'm going to bitch about is too few screens when Shady is running for 130 yards per game.
No doubt, the first season is going to have a learning curve for both players and coach but I find no quibbles with the structure of Kelly's offense so far.
