I have mixed feelings about Andy. If he wins a SB then both Eagle losing coaches in our only 2 SBs go on to win the thing with another club. Not sure how I feel about that. On the other hand, if Andy wins it all, it changes the viewfiner backwards about whether he was truly a stud coach all those years. I guess I'd like to see him get the win. I also have nothing against KC fans, a rabid base that hasn't seen the SB since 1970. If I'm going on who I'm pulling for emotionally and their fan bases, then Detroit comes 1st - as that fan base is long suffering. But if I'm going to list it by who I think has a chance to keep Dal out of there...

Lions
Dolphins
KC
Falcons
Texans
Raiders
Steelers
Gints
Packers
Sea
Ne
Dal

This is based only on my emotional fan point of view and who I hate more or less.

He looked talented in that final game against us. Oh well. Feel bad for the guy - can't seem to lick the substance issue.

regarding Chip. His has three choices:

-- retire - he's already a wealthy man
-- go back to college forever
-- go back to college, dominate again and then pull a Pete Carrol

Some day Belichick is going to retire and Brad won't be there anymore. I could see Chip doing a 5 year thing at a brand name college and then coming to NE with a a "new perspective" and Belichick as a kind of advisor.

Chip has a great offensive football mind. And he will be a good recruiter and commander in chief in college. He will succeed there. I suspect he would like to prove himself in the NFL again but that's not happening now.

What college is the right one for him? Not sure...

Nick Foles 27-3-2, Shady McCoy 1600yards, lead NFL in plays over 20, 40 and 50 yards - (2013) that actually happened. He did something right. He knew/knows something... he also probably saved Colin Kaepernick's career.

Chip has to do some soul searching and growing, being a leader of men, it's a challenge. But I think we'll see Chip succeed again - at least in college.

Is he right for Notre Dame? No idea. I don't follow that school or college football politics that well. But he'll succeed again.

His mistake, was not taking a year off between Eagles and whatever came next, and then going to a team with bad owner and GM. He needs to learn how to operate in the NFL. He's way too defensive in pressers and snarky.

Supposed to be 14 at 4pm

Sounds like football weather to me

That was cool. Seems like a good guy. Wish the Birds had moved up to get him!

It'd be funny to learn more about more players - see them out of context off the field jsut as regular people to see who is cool and who is not so much...?!

I fucking hate LA.

Knew it was coming... Became my 2nd favorite NFL team from years ago when I initially moved out there. Always wish it were a better sports town. I'm really not into giving the NFL and its owners welfare so I got mixed feelings. Qualcomm is clearly outdated tho. I wonder if they will tear it down or keep it for swap meets on weekends. RIP the murph.
