Why do I get the gut feeling that it won't end well?

 

[WHO-DEY-BENGALS_18]

I think it will work out really well for the Eagles, he just fits that team really well. I don't think it will end badly. It is weird that he said he was returning to Oregon and now all of a sudden this... He must be worried about the sanctions that Oregon could receive.

Fuck yes.

 

[youngguru]

This is going to be such an epic fail, can't wait.

 

[RipCity32]

Yeah I just get the vibe he won't have much success there. But idk, I hope I'm wrong. I like Chip.

 

[Hurricane Season]

shit, anywhere but the East. Do not like this.

Andy Reid helped the Philadelphia Eagles secure a deal with Chip Kelly to become their next head coach.

Reid reached out to Kelly to recommend the franchise.

"One person I want to thank, in terms of advice in this whole thing, is Andy Reid," said Kelly. "And the fact that Andy reached out to me and told me about his experience here just told me what this organization is all about. There's not a classier guy. When Andy texted me (Wednesday) when I accepted the job, I told him I had really, really, really big shoes to fill. And in typical Andy fashion he said, 'Just be yourself and you'll be fine.' So I publically just want to thank Andy, because that really spoke to me about what this organization is all about."

Best thing Andy's done in 3 years.

Hopefully this will be the start of bright days ahead for the Eagles.
