Today is the day! It's finally here! The game we've been waiting for since January 16th!

We all know what happened last time Michael Vick came into Washington on a Monday night:

Will tonight be different? The Redskins did pick up a pretty good QB in the interim.

Unfortunately for Washington, they're coached by this guy:

He thought it would be a good idea to play the top asset in the history of the franchise on one leg in a season when they had no championship equity. That led to this:

Will RG3's knee hold up against the Eagles fearsome competent defense made up of professional football players who get paychecks and everything? Will Michael Vick return to his 2010 form? Will Chip Kelly usher in a new era of intelligent NFL head coaches? Tune in at 7 PM EST and find out!

Oh yeah, I turned on MNC and got all pumped. Turned it off as soon as RayRay appear on screen. I'm not *that* pumped, and never will be.

Just get the feeling rg3's knees aren't going to hold up and he's going to have a short career.

In for Chip Kelly.

I really hope his offence and ideas work in the NFL, if will be for the good of the league as a whole.

this. The Panthers not firing Rivera and hiring him was one of the most disappointing sports moments ever for me when it comes to things that have nothing to do with teams I root for/against.

-Explosive offense with lots of big plays
-Great perimeter running game taking advantage of speed, and utilizing players that don't usually carry the ball much such as the QB and WRs
-Lots of no-huddle/uptempo when the matchups are favorable to prevent the defense from substituting
-Will go for it on 4th down more than any team in the NFL. 4th and 6 from the opposing 38, 4th and 4 from the opposing 45, and 4th and 2 from your own 40, all automatic go for it spots

See this article for a detailed explanation:

At Oregon, he ran a spread offense using a lot of read option. He was also known for running plays very fast (attempting to wear out the defense) and it's expected that the Eagles will lead the league in offensive plays run.

It remains to be seen how much of the Oregon offense he brings to the Eagles.

Why iggy

Because Chip Kelly's his coach and he should put up huge numbers? 5dimes has his O/Us at 270.5 yards and 1.5 passing TDs. On the ground, he's expected to put 40.5 rushing yards with a 35% chance of at least 1 TD rushing.

I'm a Saints fan living outside of philly, was never a fan of the eagles, but boy do I love me some Chip. Real excited to be on the bandwagon around here.
