Anyone think this could be Chip Kelly's shot? Sabin if he wants one more shot at the NFL? Philadelphia Eagles is a pretty attractive NFL coaching position, IMO.

I heard Kelly's name being brought up with Eagles before. I would love to see how that worked out. They have so much talent just for whatever reason can't put it together.

The Eagles are built for a dude like Chippy. Badass skill position players all over the field with mediocre line talent on both sides of the ball.
All the MeSean, Shaddy, Vick, and Maclin need is a little space to do their thing. Their D was built to attack the ball which is probably why they are stuggling since switching to a more conservative style the past season and a half.

IMO Chip would be a good hire, but I don’t think he leaves Oregon until he win’s a NC. Which probably isn’t happening this year. I think they go defense and hire either, Perry Fewell the DC for the Giant’s or Ray Horton the DC for Arizona.

I know his name is connected to everything, but I was pretty sure Philly was the job Gruden's always wanted.
Not sure I can see them hiring Chip Kelly, but so many NFL teams make seemingly foolish moves (especially my own).

Bill Cowher would make a great choice. He's got that blue collar attitude for a town like Philly. He's an excellent coach and the Eagles would be great on defense again. Not sure if he's interested in coaching again.

Cowher also played with the Eagles I think and was an Assitant with them as well for a few years. I know you asked for college coaches but he'd be the best for the job IMO.

Anyone that believes Kelly would install an Oregon style offense as an NFL HC is a retard.
CK is on every GM's short list because of his efficiency, management skills, ability to identify talent and to make mid-game adjustments. Dude is wicked smaht and has a work ethic that boggles the mind. He is EVERYTHING you want in a head coach.

Cowher would be a great hire but I’m not sure Philly’s owner would be ok with another coach wanting to be a GM as well, after what has happened with Andy.

I have little doubt it will be. Gruden

I would take Gruden over CK in a heart beat. You go with the proven commodity with that much $$ on the line. But it should tell you something that Gruden worships at the alter of Chip Kelly. Why there were so many stupid Oregon fans that thought Gruden might have stepped in for Kelly had he left.
