He did get a rushing touchdown in the third quarter, but that turned out to be New England’s only touchdown of the game. Parker also caught a touchdown in the first half and has 106 yards overall in a productive end to his rookie season.
A day after firing Kelly, CEO Jeffrey Lurie made it clear he wants a coach who can relate to his players and everyone else in the building.

Cleveland’s new coach will be a part of the search for the new general manager, Jimmy Haslam told reporters Sunday night. Farmer badgered some coaches with impermissible in-game text messages about how they should have been doing their jobs .
Kelly led Philly to back to back 10-win seasons in his first two years as the head coach.

Canada lost 6-5 to host Finland on Saturday, finishing in sixth place and out of the top four for the first time since 1998. You could mount the case that the ’04 team won or even dominated every period of the tournament save the last 20 minutes.
DeMarco Murray personifies what went wrong with Chip Kelly’s final season as head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles. “He does a great job and he’s done a great job with that team”, Belichick said, according to ESPN.com. “It’s taken them from a championship caliber team and brought them down to where they’re at”, Gribbin said. It’s disappointing to see, or with Josh (McDaniels) in Denver, or there’s a lot of examples. “I thought having six extra days was important because, as you know, it’s a chaotic, rushed schedule when you are looking for a coach”.
Interesting that before the Browns hired Chudzinski, it appeared that Chip Kelly would be named the next Cleveland head coach.
“I think that Chip had everyone believing in his system”, defensive end Brandon Graham said. Nor was Kelly agile enough to make adjustments to his management and coaching methods when players both past and present were pointing out flaws in his ways. From ownership to the quarterback, things have gone unchanged since 2001.
Belichick then said it wasn’t until 2003, the fourth year of his Patriots tenure, that he fully installed his program. Lurie said for the first time that Kelly demanded full control so he gave it to him so he would be “accountable for his decisions”. Look, I’m not there. I’m not part of their programs. They do a good job. “I think whoever Mr. Lurie decides to choose, it would be a great fit for us”. Jenkins said it just didn’t work as well as it should have. “You have to change the culture….” “Normally one coach is different from the previous coach”.
How did Belichick do in his second and third head coaching gigs?
“You never wish anything bad upon anyone”, Murray said Thursday.
With a new coach comes a new philosophy, Belichick explained.
“There was a risk involved in allowing Chip to have that kind of say over player transactions”, Lurie said.

“You’ve got to open your heart to players and everybody you want to achieve peak performance”. To the extent that we are able, we will try to keep you informed as we go through the process. To build that up over time, it doesn’t happen in training camp…. I mean, look, training camp’s training camp but those games don’t count. If you don’t have a calculator, he averaged 58.7 yards per game. It takes some time to go through that. “I think in today’s world, a combination of all those factors creates the best chance to succeed”. “I knew that we would have an opportunity to do some things that I was accustomed to doing”. “I think Chip really did care about this team. I don’t buy into that”. He won a Super Bowl. “But when the team started losing, stuff started to come out”. I know for me personally, I feel like a lot of it is on us. “[In] ’03, that was a good football team”. Lurie said Roseman will be responsible for “making sure our player personnel department is as good as it gets in the National Football League and be accountable for that”.
