Eagles to hire Chip Kelly

His system can work with that team. Michael Vick, LeSean McCoy, Bryce Brown, DeSean Jackson, Jeremy Maclin, and Brent Celek. That's a lot of speed, even for a NFL team. He just has to fix that o-line on offense. Defense is another story however.

Kelly seems to like Foles. Their 2 teams played each other in college so Kelly knew what he was getting with Foles. I would bet his system changes a little and Vick is still gone.

From Rotoworld:

New Eagles coach Chip Kelly revealed at his introductory press conference that he's a "huge fan" of QB Nick Foles.
"We hit him as many times as we could hit someone and he kept getting up," said Kelly. "He's tough, people don't understand how important that is." Asked about his preference for a running QB, Kelly added, "I'll say this: there's perception and reality. Perception is we run our quarterback all the time. Reality is that's not the case." Kelly explained that there's "nothing that's on the board, there's nothing that's off the board" regarding Michael Vick. Although Kelly is still in the process of evaluating personnel and watching film, it certainly appears that he's higher on Foles than Vick.
