Philadelphia Eagles Hire Chip Kelly as Head Coach


Soo this news has made headlines on just about every sports network. Early today ESPN reported the Philadelphia Eagles have officially hired  49 year-old Charles "Chip" Kelly as their head coach. Chip Kelly who's resume reads as a former college coach for the Oregon Ducks, going 46-7 while coaching and just recently defeating Kansas State in the Fiesta Bowl. Kelly is well known for his offensive mind and he was able to do a lot of crafty trick with his formations and sets.
