1. How would you characterize the Chip Kelly experience? Are the Eagles worse off now that he’s gone? How quickly could they recover?

I don’t think there are too many fans of this team heartbroken by the Chip Kelly departure. I’m sure they exist; I just don’t know any of them personally. Kelly’s tenure was one of bad personnel decisions, the unnecessary dismissal of fan favorites and questionable draft picks. We credit him with Lane Johnson and Zach Ertz, but, then again, there’s only one remaining member on this team from last year’s draft class. That’s Nelson Agholor, and there are some concerns there.

I see this team as being in a better spot now because the worst part of Kelly’s tenure was the fact that he divided the Eagles brass and the locker room. Once you lose the team, it’s over.
