Aikman used the word 'lethargic'. That was being kind.
Also, fundamentally unsound on D.
Team has quit.

Not sure the last time I can say that about a pro team, but it sure seems that way.

If he isn't the Head of Operations for the Eagles and not so responsible for the roster, would he get another year?

Would Coyle consider calling Jim Bob Cooter?

Kind of crazy to think that SU played a small but important role on his way to the Eagles gig.
TGD had plans to fly him out, interview, and offer him the job which he wanted. Before he can fly out, Bellotti resigns as HC to become AD and promotes Chip to be head coach at Oregon.

I don't care what he is. He needs to hit the road.

LSU?
I'm surprised at you Deano. You had respect for that organization before McNabb?
...and signing the dog fighter.

As a life-long Eagles fan, I have to agree with that. My passion has never been the same after they sh@t on him and left him go. And then to make matters WORSE, brought in that POS DOG-killing SOB!
Just a little cause McNabb was on that team.

Im a big Eagles fan too, and call me bananas but I don't want to fire Chip. Give him one more year. I don't know of anyone else that I like over him. With that said, this year has been an absolute disgrace and won't be sad if he is canned. You are almost forced to fire him with how the team has reacted to the adversity. They have COMPLETELY quit.

Once again - bad quarterback play makes an NFL coach look inept. Crazy how that works.
Kelly shouldn't be GM but he's an excellent coach. Give him a decent quarterback and he would look like a genius. That's how it works in the NFL and one of the many reasons why the NFL sucks.
You can replace Chip all you want, but if you still don't have a quarterback in three years then you're just going to fire the next coach too.

Not calling you out in particular because a ton of people have been saying it, but it's funny to see people come out of the woodwork to say this now after he was so successful his first two years. No doubt the wheels have come off this year, but his offense was pretty fantastic for the majority of his time as the Eagles' coach. Now people are coming out and saying "Once you realize they run the same couple plays over and over, it's not difficult to defend" as if it took them three years to $cout a team that only "runs a couple plays". It's just silly, and this is coming from someone that honestly wanted to see him fail.
At any rate, I suspect he'll be given serious consideration for the Tennessee Titans job this offseason if he's in fact fired.
