Chip Kelly's Takeover Case Study

627 Words3 Pages

Don’t fix what isn’t broken. Chip Kelly came into Philadelphia with one of the most unique mindset’s the city has ever witnessed and he knowingly let this age-old mantra slip by him. After gaining momentum through his successful, but more importantly innovative opening season, along gaining control over the roster, Kelly did not create an extremely favorable situation at the game’s most important position.

But, the riskiest move would be trading for Robert Griffin III, a young signal caller who had high success when he was able to stay on the field. Kirk Cousins was able to take over the starting spot in Washington due RG3’s injuries, but Griffin showed spectacular bursts of play and a change of scenery is severely needed to see if he gain regain his

    Last year, after Jamaal Charles tore his ACL five games into the 2015 season, Pederson guided the Chiefs’ offense to the playoffs with the likes of Alex Smith, Jeremy Maclin and Travis Kelce. Pederson was able to help the Chiefs win despite none of the aforementioned players putting up eye-popping numbers.

For Pederson’s offense to have success, Bradford needs to limit turnovers, and Ertz needs to become more of a threat in the red

So, when Denver Broncos outside linebacker Von Miller posted on his Instagram Thursday that there is “No Chance” he’d play under the franchise tag next season, I was filled with smug satisfaction — and reminded how ridiculous the concept of the franchise tag really is. To an outsider, myself included, Miller’s rejection of the Broncos’ offer was baffling, at first. A six-year, $114.5 million contract (reported by ESPN’s Adam Schefter) would have me whipping out my pen and asking where to sign.
