Not sure if this is true (re: Eagles)

[Mr. Scot]

Skimmed the official Eagles boards for a little bit tonight, and saw something from a couple of fans that I have a hard time believing.

They said Chip Kelly doesn't game plan for specific opponents. He just implements his offense and runs it the same way every game.

That's a tough one to buy into.

Anyone else seen anything about this?

The guy has some ego so I wouldn't doubt it. 

Honestly, I think the scheme is overrated and teams are figuring out ways to stop it.  Take away the Matthew's TD and we pretty much bottled up this whole scheme.  They had 3 FG

[Mr. Scot]

I agree, but I also think Kelly the GM kinda screwed over Kelly the Coach.

Announcers tonight pointed out that Jeffrey Lurie seems to like giving full power to his coaches but it's had an unfortunate tendency to backfire on him.

All I know is.. After the effort and energy they left out on the field last week in Seattle, this game had all the makings of one we'd usually lose. But with all the mistakes we had, the defense held their own and the offense did what they needed to do to best a good team in the eagles. That eagles defense looked pretty good too, and Stewart continually gashed them. I'm so impressed that we didn't have a letdown and continued this winning streak. Now it's time to beat the hell out of the colts on national TV next Monday night

[Mr. Scot]

With the story of an angry confrontation between the owner and the GM added to the tension that was already known to exist between the GM and the head coach, I don't think it's exaggerating to say that the  Colts are in full blown meltdown mode right now.

I think Rivera and the Keep Pounding mentality keeps this team focused on the game at hand.

You could say the Colt game could be a trap game because of the GB game the following week. 

Each week our team leaders and Rivera keep them focused.  

6-0 is proof.

which is one reason why we should throttle them.. Luck having a down year being another reason

[KendrickPanther]

I have a hard time believing the Philadelphia forum fans have a pulse on the game planning. I did hear that the Eagles defense would approach this game differently because when they scouted Cam he was playing differently. IE, escaping the pocket and healthier. But again that's defense.

Funny how Poppa Luck advised his boy that the Colts were the more stable franchise

I wouldn't take anything that fans say about such things seriously after a loss.

[PandaPancake]

I'm learning that Kelly is a lazy tub of lard.

Did he win some huge fantasy football contest a few years back or something?

What? He didn't have that choice as they were situations separated by a year. When Luck decided to stay Manning was leading the Colts in to the playoffs and his neck issue was yet to occur.

You're correct, but Luck could have stayed in school for another year. One can somewhat read between the lines, but there can't be any rational fans who don't appreciate Cam at this point.

the colts are an absolute dumpster fire right now
