Bill Belichick throws his support behind Chip Kelly the GM
“Chip Kelly, to me, is a really good football coach and he does a great job”.

The Ducks capped a 12-1 season with a 35-17 victory over Kansas State in the Fiesta Bowl.
Lurie said he fired Kelly this week rather than after Sunday’s final regular-season game against the Giants so that the team could get a head start on the search for his replacement.
Kelly, in his 25th year as a coach, leads active college coaches with 226 victories.
Kelly points to Pete Carroll as someone who is doing well in the NFL.
GAME PLAN: The Eagles had trouble getting off the field on third down all season. Belichick also felt sorry for Kelly and let the Eagles beat the Patriots in Foxboro in Week 13 of this season. “It was surprising because I thought we were on the verge of something that could be very, very special, but it wasn’t where you could count on it based on the preseason”. “You see how fast he got rid of all the good players”.
A league source has told Comcast SportsNet’s Derrick Gunn the Eagles will soon be making an additional hire to add to the player personnel department. Lastly, you’ve got to open your heart to players and everybody you want to achieve peak performance. “That’s why the decision was made”, Lurie said in the conference via USA Today. “And I don’t think he utilized that enough or was proactive enough to really connect to the players”.
“It was a surprise, but we were not playing up to our standards, the Eagles’ standards”, tight end Zach Ertz said. All in all, I know he cared about the players but I don’t think he had the best way to go about things. “So he’s a guy that I respect and I think he’s a good guy, and he’s a really good football coach”. “It’s different. If you’re set in your ways, maybe close-minded, not willing to change, it’s going to rub people the wrong way”.
“It was kind of weird to me because after one not-so-good year, he just goes”, Addison said.
The Jacksonville Jaguars, meanwhile, said they planned to retain head coach Gus Bradley for at least one more season. “I deeply regret that we did not bring this great city and its fans the championship they deserve”.
Belichick had the benefit of winning a Super Bowl in 2001, which clearly helped his grasp on the head-coaching job in New England. They weren’t, and that’s a big reason why Kelly doesn’t have a job anymore. It’s a collective effort when we have the season we’ve had – not just offensively, but defensively, special teams.
“He’s had a lot of success with the things he’s done on offense”, Murray said.

Kelly compiled a record of 26-21, including back-to-back 10-win seasons in his first two years with the organization before dropping to its current 6-9 mark. Murray is averaging just 3.5 yards per carry and has been relegated to a shared backfield role with Ryan Mathews, who has proven a better fit while averaging 5.2 yards per carry with a team-high six rushing touchdowns.
