Chip "How You Like Me Now" Kelly

Imagine Rex as his DC. Innovative schemes on both sides of the ball. 

Chip Kelly, like Dan Mullen of Miss St, have education and a background in Sports Science. What puts them apart from other head coaches is their preparation and Fitness regiment that they require of their teams.

He has only been there for two seasons so he hasn't been able to fully implement his program. And admittedly, when Foles went down, they were in first place and looked like they were definitely headed to the playoffs.

If after 6 years on the job his offense is as bad as our defense, and his defense is as bad as our offense, then it would be safe to say that 100% of their fan base would be for him getting fired.

But it's not just about the QB position, too many times we looked disorganised and under-prepared.Scheming and passion alone can only go so far you have to be drilled and disciplined to win consistently.Stupid penalties and confusion happening time and again not to mention time-outs burned because of wrong personnel, incorrect formations or spurious challenges....I could go on

i can't pin any of that on the GM

 if we're discussing the lack of talent on the roster then we can't totally remove Rex from that either, Choosing Holmes  and Mason over Cotchery and Braylon was not just all on Tannenbaum and his draft room presence alone was responsible for Scotty McKnight and Tajh Boyd. 

don't get me wrong I'll miss Rex and until Pettine left his defense was always good to keep us in almost any game but it's become clear that Rex is half the coach without the discipline and organisation of Pettine.I'm not personally all about going for an offensive guru or QB coach I still believe defense wins championships so for me a guy like Todd Bowles could be a good hire if he understands how to coach guys up in all phases and demands precision and discipline with accountability. But I've seen enough with Rex to know he needs absolutely everything in his favour to scheme and motivate his teams to perform....and a defensive guru needs to get journeymen performing above themselves in niche roles not have his defense come apart because it no longer has 2 pro-bowlers(1 of whom must be the greatest of all time at the position)at CB.

with a squad chock full of talent built by Mangini and Tanny that was primed to win he schemed and coached brilliantly and yes did a heck of a job with Sanchez as a rookie in years 1 and 2 but his team building ability was exposed as gradually the talent around those first two years eroded.Great coaches just keep on winning with interchanging parts...that's not Rex

Let's be real, we all know that any other coach would have been wildly successful over these past 5 years with either Sanchez or Geno at QB and offensive masterminds like Schotty, Sparano or MM running his offense. I mean, Sparano is leading an excellent Raiders team, St. Louis is how many games over .500? and MM turned down multiple offers around the league especially when his former HC in Andy Reid really begged him to come to KC.

lol...of course you don't!

It's all good dude. Opinions are allowed to differ around here.

The fact that Rex used Mark Sanchez and Geno Smith over the past few years to beat Tom Brady and BB how many? 3 or 4 times?....that gives me just a little confidence that if we had a QB who wasn't in the bottom 20% of the league we might have actually done better the past few years. But that's just me.
