Oh no, Tim Tebow might actually make the Jaguars’ roster
Tim Tebow is going to be back in the NFL because Urban Meyer still thinks it’s 2007 at the University of Florida. Hell, he’s only an hour and a half up the road from Gainesville now that he’s in Jacksonville. I’m sure the 33-year-old former Heisman Trophy winner that flamed out in the NFL and hasn’t...

Chip Kelly Is Only Three Games Into His College Return And It's Already Getting Sloppy
UCLA is in its first year under Chip Kelly and the once-unrivaled college coach already has quarterback family drama on his hands, not to mention three hideous losses....

Chip Kelly Will Replace Jim Mora As Head Coach At UCLA

<i>Sports Illustrated </i>Publishes Story Based On Bogus Report From Fake Pat Forde Twitter Account
Just before midnight tonight, Sports Illustrated published a story about Chip Kelly being considered for the head coaching position left open at Ole Miss after Hugh Freeze’s resignation last week.

Jim Harbaugh And Chip Kelly Go To Bat For Colin Kaepernick
NFL free agency began three weeks ago, and Colin Kaepernick is still a man without a team, even in a league in which Mike Glennon just got $19 million guaranteed to actually start for someone. Is Kaepernick being blackballed because of his national anthem protest? It he still unsigned because of his...

Chip Kelly Is Playing The Game
The NFL is lousy with head coaches who have been given multiple chances at running a team despite achieving little on-field success. A coach can fail, get fired, and still find himself patrolling a sideline within a year, and the best way to go about pulling off such a feat is to control one’s own n...

Jed York Finally Ensures No Good Coach Will Work For Him Any Time Soon<em></em>
It’s hard to believe that, not that long ago, the San Francisco 49ers were a good team with a good head coach. It’s been a disaster since owner Jed York shuffled off Jim Harbaugh in December of 2014, and yesterday’s dual firing of head coach Chip Kelly and general manager Trent Baalke has put the fr...

Report: Chip Kelly Has Been Fired
Adam Schefter reports the 49ers have dumped Chip Kelly after giving the former Eagles and Oregon head coach less than a year on the job.

Mark Helfrich Fired By Oregon, Which Makes Sense
As a rule, Oregon doesn’t fire coaches. The last time they fired one was in 1976, instead choosing to promote from within. That’s a perfectly noble system to adhere to if you’re the sort of school that’s accepted lower expectations or manages to find a flawless in-house successor for every coach and...

Smash Mouth Love Trent Baalke, Hate Chip Kelly
Smash Mouth—the house band from hit 2001 film Shrek—are prominent, prolific Twitter users who are unafraid to go to the mattresses to correct the record if you spread falsehoods online.

Chip Kelly Backs Colin Kaepernick, Terrible Columnist Fusses Like A Baby
Press Democrat columnist Lowell Cohn is one of the very worst sportswriters in the business—he’s the dude who once compared PED users to murderers—so it’s no surprise that he has a problem with Colin Kaepernick. In fact, ol’ Lowell is so steamed about this issue that he felt it necessary to lecture ...

Report: Chip Kelly Threw Eagles Scouts' Hard Work In The Trash
There will not be a bad time to take a swing at former Eagles head coach Chip Kelly. Evan Mathis did it. Other assorted ex-Eagles have done it.

Report: Chip Kelly's Eagles Offered The Titans A Shit-Ton For Marcus Mariota

Kelly strenuously denied the rumored trade packages that included Sam Bradford and a ...

Eagles' Trades Show Who's Really Running The Team
It was a year ago, in the span of one crazy week, when the Eagles signed DeMarco Murray and Byron Maxwell and traded for Kiko Alonso.

Will I ever get tired of former Eagles players talking shit about Chip Kelly? No, I don’t think I will....

What Has Chip Kelly Learned?
The 49ers formally introduced Chip Kelly yesterday, and the media immediately wanted to know if Kelly intended to change anything from his stint in Philadelphia, where his people skills rubbed some players the wrong way and a good number weren’t too sad to see him go. “I don’t know if I can be signi...
