Before the season started, Aikman said he thought Bradford could win the MVP. :lol:



I saw that too,Aikman must have gotten a hold of some bad crack last time he was partying in San Francisco.

If the NFL had a rule where they only awarded league MVP to a quarterback and every starting QB in the league except for Bradford got injured week 1 and was out for the season,Bradford probably still wouldn't win MVP.

I hate Dallas but broken collar bone for Romo sucks
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Games like this show why we might be able to get something decent for Hundley in the next few years.

Definitely have to keep Hundley stashed on the roster, great potential n so much poise for a rook thus far.

My god. Not just that early snap, but the Eagles O looks incredibly disorganized. I thought he might flop because his stuff wouldn't work. I didn't even consider he'd be unable to implement it.

Wow that's a huge blow to Dallas obviously after already losing Dez for most of the season.

I know I am going to sound like a cocky Packer fan here,but the Packers could probably get at least #2 seed in their sleep this season.

The north looks pretty bad besides us.The NFC south will probably be won with like a 9-7 record and now with Romo and Dez out most of the season the NFC east will probably be won with around a 9-7 record too.

If the Packers beat Seattle head to head today and we don't end up with the #1 seed my first question would be what week did Aaron Rodgers get hurt?

I can't believe how bad Bradford is, no way he should be a starter in the NFL. How was he a #1 pick?

Saw this on Twitter...

Since Chip Kelly took the reins of the Philadelphia Eagles in 2013, NFL fans and analysts have been quick to point out how unorthodox Kelly’s quick-strike, college-style offense is when compared with the other 31 teams. But given the Eagles’ results on offense—a unit that’s averaging nearly 40 points a game this preseason—the more interesting question is this: Why don’t those other 31 teams play more like Kelly?

Kelly had a baffling offseason. The guy is in completely over his head as the coach/GM.

People sure love to pile on chip Kelly. I get it that they've looked bad but I half hope they turn it around just to see some people eat crow. I respect the dude for trying to do thing differently and as much that's been made of the roster moves where they really a contender with foles, maclin, and this version of shady.. not really.
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming Wow! What a Ride!-H.S.T.

I think the issue is that he just doesn't know how to build a team, not that he can't coach. Sure, if he gets the guys that work perfectly in his system, that offense is clicking on all cylinders, but so would a lot of other coaches if they had the perfect personnel to run their scheme. What's even more baffling is that he traded the perfect all-purpose back for his no-huddle offense, in favor of overpaying a guy who was largely the product of a dominant O-line. And he's completely ignored the O-line in the draft and FA...

Foles for Bradford was another laughable move. Never mind the fact that Foles is a better QB, but Kelly seems to think he can transform any traditional, drop-back QB into a guy who can run the no-huddle, spread offense like a savant. The Chip Kelly hype reminded me so much of when Steve Spurrier came into the league and people thought he was going to "revolutionize" pro-style offenses with freakin Patrick Ramsey...

Every year I am shocked by how thin they leave the late games. You would think as the nfl embraces fantasy football and things like the redzone they would put more thought into this.

Watching their last two games has been pretty brutal. They kept panning to Chip and Bradford and both looked 100% befuddled. I found it pretty amusing except for the fact I had started Bradford over Palmer.

A huge F-you also goes out to the Saints for **** the bed and costing me my fanduel leagues and my money league...Dicks.

Kelly clearly hated McCoys dancing style, which is pretty evident by the personnel he brought in. I read that last year the only team that had a better yards before contact than Dallas was Philly, so I had a lot of hope Murray would surprise this year. But letting both guards go and the types of running they are doing is killing them.

It's not too late to turn that running game around, but Kelly is going to have to change his play calling or personnel. And something tells me he is too arrogant to change his play calling.
