So you think Foles and Sanchez will be back next year? They probably will be i think.
Don't have many other options and I think you still need to see what you have in Foles for a whole season so I would bring him back. I'd take Sanchez back at the right price too. Can't expect much more out of a backup than going 5-4 in 9 games.
This would be an interesting first step in building up the secondary:

Apparently Gamble had to be escorted from Nova Care tonight. Haha. Never a dull moment with this team. I like Gamble but if this is a sign Lurie is not satisfied with the status quo, then I gotta think that's a good sign--I think
The Eagles under Reid were 22-4 in December games when the Eagles had a winning record and their opponent didn’t. The exceptions (not including the season-ending losses in 2004 after the Eagles clinched No. 1 seed and played subs) were an overtime loss to the 49ers in 2003 that ended a nine-game winning streak, 10-3 to the Redskins in 2008, the Joe Webb game against the Vikings in 2010 and then the Cowboys game a week later. Chip Kelly is 3-2 such games, with the loss to the Vikings last year and Saturday to the Redskins. So Kelly has already lost as many games in his first two years when he’s taken a winning team against a losing team in December as Reid lost in his first 11 years.
Since the NFL went to the 4 division format per conference (2002 or something)...there have been two teams who have gone 9-3 and failed to make the playoffs. The Chip Kelly led 2014 eagles are one of those teams.
Also, Mark Sanchez...
only bringing this up since you mentioned him, but your boy andy reid's record against all teams in december in kansas city? currently 3-5. and he was 7-3 just a few weeks ago and may not make the playoffs either (not to mention being 9-0 last year, only to finish 2-5 before blowing a 30 point lead in the playoffs, while passing it 46 times). clearly we need him back! definitely gotta sign da rick rogers too. ugh.
this team was a horrendous 4-12 a couple years ago. there's hardly ever a straight trajectory from garbage to super bowl winners in 2 seasons. plus you predicted 8 wins back in the summer so they exceeded your expectations even with a backup qb playing half the season.
darick rogers is miles better than jeff maehl.
reid is better than kelly
your boy sanchez is a dumpster fire. can't believe you were happy they signed him. even for you that was dumb
kind of want to like ODB but man does he bitch to the refs a lot.
Always a disappointing season when you don't reach the playoffs. I think we know where the improvements need to be made, players, coaches and front office. Hopefully we'll get more right than wrong.
I don't see any offense beating the Seahawk's D right now.[/quote]
someone around here said OBJ was the best WR in the draft class...

of the six teams in contention for the playoffs, Ohio St had the worst loss (by far). It doesn't matter who played for them...or when the game was. You cannot overlook that their loss was BY FAR the worst of the bunch, which should have ruined their resume.
The selection committee wanted the big 10 in the playoffs because they are the richest conference. The entire selection process is a joke and bad for college football. Great game, but TCU should have been in the playoffs over OSU...they would have done the same thing to bama.
Not gonna change anything, so yeah, not much point in arguing about it.
And for the record, I think Ohio St has a great chance to beat Oregon. Urban Meyer is right there with Saban in terms of being the best coach in the country.

good god, the media is horrible at their jobs. of course chip was not going anywhere after these first couple years. funny watching and listening to people freak out today. fucking twitter. this is essentially the same thing that happened 15 years ago with andy and tom modrack. howie is the new joe banner and chip now has to find his tom heckert.
saddle up chip haters, he's in this for the long haul. at least, 3 to 4 years from now, we'll know who made the moves and know who to blame if things don't work out.
gotta think lurie saw what happened in sf with harbaugh and baalke and wanted to prevent the same kinda thing of happening here. say what you want about the eagles, but they have a good owner.

Jeffrey Lurie had no choice but to put Chip Kelly in charge
Howie Roseman (left) received a promotion and new title, but in shaking up the Eagles' front office, owner Jeffrey Lurie (middle) put Chip Kelly in charge of player personnel. (USA Today Images)
Eagles owner Jeff Lurie had no choice. He did the only thing he could possibly do in the long-term interest of the team he’s owned for more than 20 years.
He demoted the one person in the organization he’s closest to.
The Eagles are calling general manager Howie Roseman’s new role a promotion (see story). But let’s be honest. They gave him a contract extension and a fancy corporate title, but in reality, Lurie wiped Roseman of his key general manager duties five days after telling reporters Roseman would “absolutely” return in 2015 as the Eagles’ general manager.
By doing so, Lurie found a way to restore some much-needed health and sanity to the Eagles’ teetering front office and retain head coach Chip Kelly, who has led the team to consecutive 10-6 seasons after replacing Andy Reid.
To put Lurie’s relationship with Roseman in perspective, keep in mind that Lurie sided with Roseman when Roseman and Joe Banner were locked in a power struggle a few years ago. And Lurie and Banner were boyhood friends. Lurie hired Banner one day after buying the Eagles.
In the years since, he has promoted Roseman every opportunity possible and kept Roseman on the personnel side while losing valuable execs like Tom Heckert, Jason Licht, Ryan Grigson and — just a couple days ago — Tom Gamble, Kelly’s hand-picked personnel guy.
Roseman is a good man who’s worked tirelessly to study personnel and learn how to select players, but his strength is and has always been contracts, salary cap, money.
And it took a furious Kelly following Gamble’s dismissal for Lurie to finally realize that the fractured front office was limiting the Eagles’ success.
Despite his intense loyalty to Roseman, he knew deep down that a front office with good people being forced out on a regular basis, one with a general manager alienating people around him, simply was not going to lead to the championships he’s been chasing for two decades.
So this time, instead of keeping Roseman happy and eliminating whoever his latest rival was, Lurie took powerful action.
Necessary action.
Five days ago, when Lurie was asked after the Eagles-Giants game in the visiting locker room at MetLife Stadium whether Roseman would return as GM, he laughed and shook his head and said, “Is that a real question?”
When told it was, he replied, “Absolutely.”
But the model wasn’t working.
The Eagles haven’t found a Pro Bowl defensive player in the first four rounds of the draft since Lito Sheppard in 2002. They haven’t drafted any Pro Bowl defensive player since Trent Cole in 2005.
Only twice in 10 years since the Super Bowl season in 2004 have the Eagles won a playoff game — 2006 and 2008. The last playoff win came against the Giants six years ago.
And after meeting with Kelly over the past few days, Lurie changed his mind. Something had to change, and it had to be Howie. That had to be incredibly difficult for Lurie to accept and act on, but he did what he did for the long-term health of the franchise.
The Eagles have a better chance to reach a Super Bowl today than they did yesterday.
After 12 years in personnel and five years as general manager, Roseman as of Friday evening now holds the title executive vice president of football operations. According to the Eagles, he’ll continue to be in charge of salary cap and contracts and “NFL strategic matters” and also oversee the training and equipment staff.
And if you don’t think this is a demotion, how would you like to go from picking players in the draft and signing free agents to overseeing the equipment staff?
Kelly keeps the title of head coach but like Andy Reid a decade ago, he will oversee the player personnel department, the team said in a release. His first duty will be to hire a new personnel executive, presumably a general manager.
It’s an incredible amount of power for a guy who’s been in the NFL for a few days less than two years and hasn’t won a playoff game. But Lurie believes Kelly was a special hire, a special football mind, and he’s banking his franchise on it.
It was clear the status quo wasn’t working. Lurie could have kept Roseman and maybe found a way to keep Kelly for another year, and the Eagles might have won 10 more games and maybe made the playoffs.
But he knew that wasn’t a model to win a title.
Ten years ago, the Eagles were in the Super Bowl. With a healthy front office consisting of Lurie, team president Joe Banner, general manager Tom Heckert and head coach Andy Reid, the Eagles went 59-21 from 2000 through 2004 — the fifth-best record over a five-year span in NFL history.
I asked Lurie that week how important it was for a successful team to have a healthy front office with guys who like each other, respect each other and work well together.
“The way Andy, Joe and Tom work together and the job they've done is a huge part of the success we've had," Lurie said that day at the team hotel in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. "There's just such a great sense of, 'We're all in this together,' and when you have that, you eliminate all the negativity that you find so often with the people running football teams.
"Joe, Andy and Tom are just very low-ego guys that recognize that, as a group, you can accomplish more than you can as individuals who are more concerned with self-promotion and personal agendas.
"When you're not concerned with who gets the credit, you don't expend any wasted energy. You're just focused on doing the right thing for the organization and the rest is irrelevant.”
Banner, Reid and Heckert are all long gone. And so is the remarkable success the Eagles experienced in the first half of the 2000s.
Since the Super Bowl season, the Eagles have won just three postseason games in 10 years. Only twice from 2005 through 2014 did they advance to the second round of the playoffs.
Lurie had to do something strong, something dramatic, or the Eagles were fated to continue as a second-tier team. Winning more than they lost but ultimately achieving nothing.
If Kelly is the brilliant football mind Lurie believes he is, this was the only way out.
Lurie had to take strong action. He had to end years of front office turmoil if he was going to get his franchise back pointed in the right direction.
A resounding loss for Roseman, a tremendous victory for Kelly and an elegant resolution for Lurie.
someone who is friends with tom gambles' son just told me that chip kelly is resigning tonight. No word if it's true he is going to pursue his lifelong dream of becoming a gay porn actor.
love the media and fans in this town who balked at Reid for having authority over the roster but somehow now it's a good thing Chip Kelly does. people make me laugh.
Got to be a little concerning that the guy who decided to cut our best receiver who ended up with the most yards per catch this season (with average to shitty QBs) is now fully in charge of the roster decisions. let's hope he makes smarter decisions this off season.

of course not. but he's a good backup. i'm sure you guys would have taken him over brandon weeden against az, right? that might've got you home field.
