Not buying Kelly. At all.
I did at first b/c he seemed to be saying the right things. While paying lip service to the fact that the NFL is a different game, however, he still makes comments like "Time of possesion is just folks standing around". His "Blur" worked in colleges b/c he was dealing with amateurs. Nothing in the scheme is new - its the same routes and plays run by traditional offenses - just done at a faster pace. In fact, just as the faster paces forces defenses to simplify their schemes, it does the same for the offense. It's entire concept is "Go fast, so D must show it's hand pre-snap then call the right play that attacks the weakness of the D shown." A defense, however, that can disguise its coverage pre-snap and limit its use of situational personnel (and, thus, not show its hand) will stymie the offense.

Not buying the Eagles. At all.
This team went 4-12 and it was just b/c of injuries along the OLine. They have replaced their secondary entirely. Vick. Sucks. (see my earlier post). They have a dangerous RB & a dangerous but limited WR (who has NO ONE opposite him to stop teams from doubling him all day long) - that's it. There ain't no more. Teams will run through their defense all day. When they go to a 4WR offense, opposing teams will point and laugh.
It is laughable to hear folks talk this sucky a** team up.
