If Chip Kelly wants to run the same offense in Philly, this could mean Vick gets to stay. No way Foles could run the spread option offense as well as Vick. Wouldn't be shocked to see Tebow land in Philly either.

If he had anything to with the hawks 2012 draft then get him. One of the best drafts in a long time

1) Irvin- led rookies in sacks
2) Wagner- led team in tackles, starter
3) Russell Wilson- awesome
4) turbin- rotates c lynch, has made a ton of plays

My guess is that the Eagles got a bit desperate and threw a boatload of money at him.

Guess that means the Tebowites won't have to change their colors all that much.

I guess Manish finally googled the guys name and read this on the Seahawks web site like 90% of the people did as soon as they heard the name brought up.

True. Funny how Manish doesnt have so many "anonymous source" articles now that Pettine is gone.

All we gotta do now is figure out who's gonna have the "power" of heart. Time to draw straws, fellas.

Not to mention he called the GM search "a mess," with zero evidence to support his claim, other than that scared feeling he got in his tummy after he read all the snarky remarks from the d-bags at NFL Network, NYDN, ESPN, etc who want to push the Jets are clowns narrative.

Colbert really means "get this Khan guy out of here. If I don't get this roster younger and better ASAP, he's taking my job."
