Why not Andy Reid?

Recommended Posts

Alright, I've been pretty busy lately so I haven't been able to read the forum like I used to. But from what I can tell most of you are up Chip Kelly's ass. The last thing I want is Chud's clone running this team. He'd overuse Cam's athletic ability and get him hurt. We need someone with experience... we don't have the time to experiment with a college coach, which rarely works. Andy Reid is an extremely good coach, one of the best of his era. But much like John Fox, sometimes coaches just need a change of scenery. Reid has only had 3 losing seasons in 14 years of coaching. Compare that to our franchise, whose never had back to back winning seasons. And to make his resume even better, all 14 of his years have been with a mobile quarterback. So I don't know what you guys are thinking but I'm on the Andy Reid bandwagon.

Kelly getting cam hurt when the other choice is Reid's when mike Vick and Mcnabb were rarely healthy the whole season? I'd rather have Kelly he's much smarter then chud and will do much better then him.

I want someone who will at least attempt to use the running game. Andy Reid will not....other than that if live the hire.

Kelly is not Chuds clone. He has basically adapted every offense he's run to the competition and available talent. He'd do te same here and don't think he'd overuse Cam.

Agree in that Chud's problem isn't necessarily that he runs a bunch of "college" plays, it's that he is sometimes a bad judge of when to use them and how often to use them. He also just does some boneheaded things that are hard to figure out. A good example is his use of the wildcat on occasion, when every single time it is a DWill run. You might as well have DWill come on to the field carrying a sign saying "we're going to run the ball now, so go ahead and stack the box".

As far as Reid, I think the guy is suffering a bit of burn out and probably needs to take a year off.

Exactly. So saying Kelly is just a chud clone is ridiculous and misinformed

    • Karlaftis and Danna have been pretty inconsistent so teams have been doubling Jones and able to contain their pass rush.   But the good thing is that yesterday, we schemed well against Steve Spags Defense, Canales married the surrounding personnel with his QB through play designs within his comfort zone and was able to get downfield at will.  He was able to execute higher difficulty throws and look a lot more comfortable.  It tells me that Canales has a good system in mind, and had an edge gameplanning wise against Spagnuolo - which is nice to see.  It's a bit to see-saw at times with either going way too pass heavy or way too run heavy, but I think he's finding out what works.  It takes time to have it come together, and sure, I could see regression happen against a better front-7, but this was good for the entire system gelling.    
    • This was evident first two weeks of season. I don’t see any issues with physical tools since he came back. I think he is a player that must play with confidence to overcome those size limitations and he’s doing that.  
    • Still 3-10 on passes over 15 yards.  At least he's not scared to merely attempt them anymore.  Where I see improvement is the 10-15 yard range.  He was 6-6.  Bryce of old was scatter shot on anything beyond 10 yards and the further out, the worse the accuracy.
