Quote:that's true D6, but on the other hand if the Chipper is ahead of the curve and willing to go all in and get his Duck QB, it could change

the NFL, I sure years ago, people laughed at the idea of the split T and the forward pass, so either Chipper is a genius or a madman

but for sure he is a high stakes poker player

 

rumblefish,  I agree that it's possible Chipper is ahead of the curve.  But considering how many gadget / unconventional Offenses have faded over the years,  the odds are against Chip Kelly's Offense becoming much more of the norm over the long haul.  

 

I was reading an article in the last couple of days that 2018 Draft picks can't be traded until the beginning of the 2015 Draft.   If Chip Kelly goes all out for his Duck QB on Day 1 of the draft,  it could make the trade compensation the St. Louis Rams got from the Redskins in 2012 look like peanuts.    If a trade like this happens,  if Chip Kelly leaves the Eagles,  they will be in serious trouble.    That's putting it mildly.
