McCoy Won’t Shake Chip Kelly’s Hand

Ryan was back to his typically playful self.

“May I finish my answer before you ask me the next question?”

His counterpart in the week’s game wasn’t almost so engaging. But we’ve still got a chance; we’re tied for first place in the division.

The call ended about seven minutes later with a click and a dial tone after another reference to the connection with Kelly.

It seemed Kelly’s main objective was to shoot down every prevailing notion about his situation in Philly.

Kelly took a diplomatic approach toward McCoy during a conference call with Buffalo-area reporters.

That’s how it went for much of the session. He said he didn’t address his team last week about his name surfacing for virtually every open college job. But in reality, Murray has been used on mostly stretch run plays that require him to run laterally.

LeSean McCoy had a blunt response to Eagles Coach Chip Kelly’s offer to shake hands on the field Sunday in Philadelphia.

“No, he was sitting next to Mr. Lurie on the plane”. “It was just about him getting healthy. And it’s a lesson that we should never do”.

“It’s a good problem to have when you have some backs that when you used all three of them (Murray, Matthews and Sproles), all three of them are productive for you, ‘Kelly said”. The fan base was quite familiar with him since they witnessed up close and personal when he broke the Dallas Cowboys single season rushing record held by the legendary Emmitt Smith. Murray can’t make defenses miss, he did in college but that’s when he was 19 years old.

Dr. Phil couldn’t fix what’s left of the relationship between McCoy and Kelly. Rex is more anxious about playing football. McCoy still harbors ill will toward Kelly and on Wednesday he addressed whether or not he he would shake his hand after the game. I don’t dislike him. “I talked to him”.

“We had to free up money to get Sam”, Kelly said Thursday. The players think it’s all about them! “(Head coach Jeff Fisher) and me were both on the phone together, we said ‘When are you going to make the call.

“I think we’ve had different moving parts”, Kelly said. The Cowboys are better with him. He was an outstanding football player for two years here. He isn’t upset about a big team win, or that the Eagles are vying for a playoff berth, but he’s a pro athlete that wants to deliver for those around him. McCoy said he always wants to play well against any team but admits, this Sunday, “it wouldn’t hurt to have six or seven touchdowns”.

The Bills are averaging half a yard more per play and.

What’s more, offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur on Tuesday refused to identify any of the four backs on the roster as No. 1 in the pecking order.

“That’s not what happened”, Kelly said.

He knows that did not happen in the case of McCoy, and he takes responsibility for that.

Nearly half a year has gone by since McCoy has made the claim.
