Lets not get crazy. A few years ago the Dolphins unveiled the wildcat and hung 50 on the PAts and everyone went nuts. NFL coaches will figure this out and there is no way the Eagles can run this tempo and not get banged up. |

Washington has eaten up half the quarter with one drive. Kelly doesn't have Whothehellcares State on the other side of the ball. He's not going to get to run 53 plays every half.

The Redskins eating up half the quarter when down 33-7 isn't exactly impressive.

Yeah but when you're up by 26, you don't care if the other team eats up half a quarter. Especially if they miss a FG.

Oh, I agree....that's what I'm saying. It's bad business for the Redskins.

Why do they have that flesh covered tarp on both sidelines. Seems slippery as hell and is begging for an ACL tear a la Jamal Charles.

This is just a fun offense to watch. I hope the rest of the season is as good as Week 1.
Side fantasy note: i drafted Vick to pick up Caepernick. Time to shop Vick around and see what I can get. |

It will be interesting to see Philly run this offense when they play at Denver.

All I know is that I've seen so many schemes that were suppose to revolutionize the game and each one got figured out. The Wildcat, the Run-n-Shoot, the no-huddle, the "46" defense and so on... So far it is impressive, but not every team is going to come out and lay as big an offensive egg as Washington did tonight. So I'm going to wait before I declare the Eagles Super Bowl champs.

Nice job every other football player that scores a TD when their team is down 20.

Vick is limping already and we're in the 4th quarter of the first game. Hope Nick Foles is ready.

I feel like this is what the Eagles pulled a lot under Reid, though. Come out guns a-blazin', but make a couple key mistakes, let a team hang around, and then fade down the stretch and lose the game. Other teams I can feel like ok - 19pt game, 4Q - it's over. Never with these guys. Some of that is pessimism because they're my team I'm sure, but some is that they just don't have a killer instinct and can't run out the clock.

It does seem like Kelly took the foot off the gas from an offensive standpoint in the second half. Not sure I understand it much.

I've heard Berman do baseball before….and he sounds like he's doing baseball here. Ouch. And I like him in the studio with Jackson….not so much here.

Yea, I had to turn it off. Berman was brutal to listen to and I generally like him.

I can't watch this old-school football. I'm going to bed. Wake me up when the rest of the NFL has Chip Kelly. Later!

Fwiw, maybe I just watch more SEC than other college football, but I highly doubt either of those would be called late hits in most of the college games I see - if anything that league in particular allows more late/high hits than the NFL. PS - I do also agree that they should move teams further back from the sidelines, and get rid of those stupid tarps that multiple players keep slipping on after they run out of bounds.

Berman is calling a tied game in the 4th quarter like it is a preseason blowout. He is extremely boring to listen to. I am amazed that this is the same guy that I used to love on NFL Countdown in the 90s.
