08:08 AM ET 11.30 | Count Eagles linebacker Casey Matthews among those who can see Chip Kelly in the City of Brotherly Love. Having played two seasons under [Kelly] at Oregon and his next two seasons in Philadelphia, [Matthews] has a unique perspective on whether his former coach would make a good fit with the Eagles. "I think the fans here would love him," Matthews said Thursday. "They would love his attitude, his go-get-it mentality." Matthews was neither advocating for the Eagles to fire Andy Reid nor was he suggesting that Reid would be gone sometime soon. But when he was asked about Kelly -- considered the most likely college coach to make the jump to the NFL -- and whether he would mesh with the Philly sports world, Matthews gave the affirmative.

Andy's the HC, so his head will be the first one on the chopping block, but replacing him won't solve all their problems.

I kind of see him taking I-5 south to Sacramento, and then a right turn on to I-80 west.

There's a lot of talent at the skill positions in Philly. Kelly would probably like that. I can't think of anything else to like about that situation.

I see them taking Andy down to the Port of Philadelphia and putting him on a barge for the trip through the Panama Canal and back up to someplace just north of the Mexican border.

I don't think old Ralph is going to pull the plug on Chan Gailey, and I certainly don't think he'd be willing to pay the kind of money Andy Reid could get elsewhere.
But, there's another Great Lakes team with a new owner who miight open up his wallet, both for coaches and players...

A viable option if he can't talk Gruden into taking the job.

I thought the idea was that Gruden gets an ownership stake in the Browns if he goes to Tennessee and coaches the Vols, right? Still leaves the HC job in Cleveland to fill.
And, I actually checked to make sure that there is a canal from Lake Ontario to Lake Erie so the barge needed to transport Andy could make the trip.

Was that truth, or rumor?

Ralph is staring down the barrel of eternity and has already said there is no one in his family is taking over the Bills so the team is sold on his demise. I would say the time is ripe for him to say "damn the torpedos" And throw a bucket of $$ at someone to give the Bills one last shot at winning

Philly fans would throw batterys at Jesus if he lost 3 games in a row as HC.
Mangler.

Casey Matthews is the new village idiot in Philly. You don't go around saying that stuff when you already have a HC. DUMB! Imagine a HC telling a reporter how good some some college player would look at playing your spot on defense Mr. Casey Matthews. You would be spitting nails.

The guy is a joker and his gimmick offense would be solved by week 3. Nobody wants him.
