Yeah the attitude is key. The team has definitely felt like it has lacked identity for years. McLoughan is clearly going for tough, physical, and nasty.

If you set a tone and build in that direction, all of a sudden guys who you never thought were tough start taking pride in that kind of trait. I think it can be contagious on a team and breed a culture.

Chip Kelly has his sports science, fitness, and fast pace. Seattle has its punishing defense. We clearly are going for one thing: brawlers. McLoughan wants us to win in a streetfight.

I love it.

agree I much rather have a physical team than I what I see in spread offenses, run n shoot etc.

Eff that "finesse" p*ssy sh*t...Chip is real cute what he has going there in Philly....everytime the Eagles score a td on offense their celebration should be a curtsey

I like it -- we can be like the early days Mike Tyson: "Everyone has a plan . . . until they get hit." Chip's finesse and timing offense gets derailed when guys are slow to get off the ground.

It's really hard to overstate how much I dislike Chip and the Eagles. Basically, it's pretty easy to hate everyone in the NFC east -- Cowboys, Eagles, Giants -- it's like the axis of douchebaggery. (Although I confess I like Tom Coughlin -- class act, and gets guys to over-acheive).

Classic post!

That ought to be our team motto: "Everyone has a plan...until they get hit."
