Chip Kelly remains in Oregon

In a world where kids have to sit out a year before they can tranfer, and coaches can jump to a new school when they are :Shown da money" Chip Kelly is soooooooooo refreshing to me!

 

Loyalty is a strong word, and it does not mean much anymore.  I retired after 22 years with the same company......I wish we still saw the Roger Staubachs, Terry Bradshaws and Dan Marinos of the world who stayed with the same team their entire careers......and I will add my personal favorite...Ray Lewis to this list......sad he is retiring even though the Ravens beat us.......so is the life in the  :nfl:  :)

Indeed.  Going on 20 myself, looking for 6 more here. No way I jump just for more cash... 

 

Kelly must know what he is looking for in the NFL and not finding it.

I applaud you for your loyalty!  The vacations are a plus too :)  

 

I really did not see Kelly calling Cleveland his NFL home......You just cannot beat the beaches of Lake Erie in December and January! :funny:

LOL, that's what I heard too.  But the gales of November on Superior are more 'uh... noteworthy'. Or at least melodic...

Can you blame him really? I can't. He told Tampa Bay to hit the road, and now Cleveland. He knows that he would be coaching teams that are little to no talent and would screw it up with a bad draft. Outside of that, why leave Oregon when you're having so much success?

    • Yeah, Ebukam almost looks clumsy next to Latu. He's just so fluid.
    • Did Hou actually get that much better? This really does remain to be seen. I am of the opinion that the signing of Diggs is a signing that has been made about 2 years too late. He won't be bad, but he isn't a top 10 WR in the NFL anymore. I wouldn't put him as any more dangerous that Pittman, so WR's are a push. We have the better RB, Mixon is great and all, but he is not JT. We have the better Oline, and it isn't even close. TE's are a push, we have a lot of upside, but until it is realised im very "meh" on our TEs. QB - I would argue that Stroud is probably more likely to regress to the mean in year 2 vs improve. That rookie season of his was a bit silly, and they had an easier schedule last season too. If he really does build on last year and get even better, then our entire discourse here is probably irrelevant as we will have another Mahomes level QB on our hands to deal with in the AFC and within the AFC South no less. So unless Richardson is also a Mahomes level talent in that scenario, we are done for anyways. To me, our success in this coming season comes down to 2 groups on this entire team. 1. The QB (because... duh) 2. Our DBs. If we even get average play from the DBs, I think this team has the ability to win the whole damned thing (supposing Richardson stays healthy and is what we all hope he is). I would also argue that Houston are paper thin. If they lose a OL starter, Mixon or even one of their starting WRs.... they have a very big drop off. And injuries happen in the NFL. Just sayin...
    • If he wasn’t fast enough or athletic enough anymore for linebacker, then he’s not going to be able to cut it at Safety where speed , quickness, athleticism are even more important.    Wish it wasn’t so…. 
    • could he be another bob sanders at that position?
    • Man I love me some Maniac, but it won't happen, and he's too slow after his surgeries.
