Has Chip Kelly and the Eagles

First 4 games--138 points given up--34.5 ppg
Last 6--106--17.5 points per game

21, 20, 17, 15, 20 (the 20th point was scored when the score was 49-13 and Kelly emptied his bench) and 13--and everyone could say how Rodgers wasn't playing---well, you can only play the next team on your schedule. Injuries happen. The most impressive display was against the Cowboys--17 points overall and 3 in the first half after the Boys were averaging 30 a game. Not surrendering any TDs vs the Giants was next--even though the Giants O isn't that great.

Yes! these are all facts. Also they are still ranked 31st out 32 in the NFL

But it is still Fools Gold, we've been down this road before in 2011 and 2012 winning meaningless games against shitty competition only to find out the D was still shitty going into 2013. This D still need at least 5 new starters heading into 2014.

It's not meaningless for this team though. They are relatively young on d... as opposed to dream team hype. I thought this team was going to be 5-11 our 6-10. They still could be.... but so far I've been surprised.

Young d... which can get better with more players.... and an o that has pretty much put up a good amount of points

They are young every year. And that is my point of getting better players. Cox,Curry, Boykin, Wolf, Ryans, and probably Fletcher are keepers. The rest are disposable. Plus there is still a question mark on inconsistent Kendricks.

True... but their dline is...I think.... youngest in the league... but they need more talent no doubt.... that being said. New system... and while they are giving up yards they are on the field more because the offense scores in under 2 minutes usually.

But... also.... if they got off the field more.... the offense could have more chances so there is room for improvement

to say they need 5 starters is to discount

The abilities of this coaching staff that we as outsiders have no clue about the process. Who are the 6 that are in your mind? Wolff, Boykin, Hendricks, Cox, Thornton, Barwin? Improvement is measured in Wins and loses.

Kelly's System is working just look at the way the team has played and another draft will bring in 8 more players that will contribute and start. Bitch and complain about the ride if you must, comfortable in the fact you can always say I told you so...

One poster on another board used that same analogy about the O scoring so quickly and the D can't get rest. You have just nailed it. Why don't the D get some 3 and outs for a change?

Long 10 play drives by pos QBs from Oakland, Tampa, GB ect aren't going to last long when the better QBs are facing this D, especially in the redzone.

Wins and losses ???? The Offense has broken NFL historical records in the first 4 games. Foles broke records and his uniform is in Canton next to Manning. This O is it, otherwise this team would be 0-10.
