Chip's offense is a disaster

[Darrell Green Fan]

We know our team isn't very good this year but it took playing the Redskins to make Riley Cooper a relevant conversation. We are not a very good team right now and you barely beat us. Have fun with Atlanta this weekend.

My team sucks too, this is not news. But again the subject is Chip's offense. Not sure why the shots at the Redskins, started by the guy calling me "uppity LOL, are necessary.

Again the point is it's hard to tell if it's the system or the personnel when a guy like Cooper plays a big role. Care to discuss or do you want to continue to take random shots at my shitty team and their shitty secondary?

LOL, you are right. I did not call you uppity. Chip got rid of a lot of talented players this year. We replaced them with other talented players but I am not sure those players are used to the leadership role. We still have players on defense that are true leader like Ryans & Jenkins.

I think Chip is losing the locker room a little. I think that once a couple players step up and show leadership on the offensive side of the ball we will be a much better team. I am hoping that player is Bradford. He seems to of gotten a lot of confidence against the Redskins. Lets see if that carries over to the Saints game.

Aside from Sproles I haven't seen anyone step up on the offense to make me think there is a solid leadership there. I am not sure I even see accountability at the moment.

I doubt many would agree with me.

I don't have a favorite NFL team and I'm certainly not going to pretend to be an Eagles fan because Sam is there. As you can see by my picture I'm a huge OU fan and I have seen every snap Sam has had since his first in college. He's definitely not showing too much promise right now but it could be worse. That being said, as far as the Eagles are concerned, they're 1-3 when they easily could be 3-1 if the kicking wasn't so shotty. You beat Atlanta if you make the last FG and you beat Washington if you make both the FG and extra point.

I thought the O looked really good in the 2nd half against the Falcons, terrible vs the Boys, promising against the Jets and pretty solid against the Redskins. The pre-season looked amazing, we're not seeing the same production but I don't believe the Eagles are out of it.

The division looks wide open and if the Eagles can just start winning a few games then they make take the top spot. Dallas is about to nose dive, Washington had to win on a last minute drive to beat a battered Eagles team and the Giants are the Giants..Eli will find a way to lose a game.

1-3 doesn't looks so bad when everyone else is 2-2, just my 2 cents.

Whole lot of season left. Eagles are most definitely still in the mix. This division is open for any of the teams to step up.

I loved Sam Bradford coming out of college. Very very accurate QB. Obviously he grew a vagina while in St. Louis and now it appears to have sand in it. But I also was a believer in Chip's offense and figured if anyone can get production out of this QB it would be Chip. Knowing Foles was not the answer I was kind of worried that they made a good move here.

How I have no idea what to think. Again is it the personnel or has the league figured out this offense? I suspect it's a little bit of both with the personnel being the bigger issue.

It is really hard to believe that it is the scheme. A scheme is only as good as the talent that executes the plays within the scheme. It isn't very hard to figure out what Chip does it was another thing stopping it. I think once the line starts playing like a unit then we will look much better.

We need some leadership on offense and if some don't show up Chip is going to lose this locker room.

That would be my concern also. Does the mood of n the locker room change when he enters..can players be themselves in his presence? I don't know.

Redskins secondary sucks to begin with. On top of that 2 starters are injured and out (D Hall and Inechaco) the guy everyone was beating last week (Culliver) tweaked his knee on Wednesday before the game, didn't practice, looked like he was at half speed. The fact that Bradford completed a few TD's is encouraging until you figure that will be the worst secondary you'll face all year.

 

[WIZ]

Haha the Saints may be worse yet.

I am not sure if it really is either of them. I think Chip was correct when he said it was execution and that makes the problem coaching. If you look at the tapes you will see that it is easy for defenses because players do not know what they are supposed to be doing. The O-line is letting people go untouched into the backfield. When they on those rare occasions pay attention and make blocks the offense produces.

Yep execution is lacking. But again he chose to go with journeymen Olineman so I'm not sure why they would be expected to play better than journeymen Olinemen

Except they played considerably better last season - and the biggest failures are not the guards, but the C, LT and RT; players who are/were all considered to be high quality players.
