Beginning with my Thursday Pick...
Philadelphia -3 vs KC
this one had me flip flopping my approach but I think I finally nailed it, or at least am close... the OBVIOUS storyline is Reid returning to Philly and he put the majority or this team into place so WHO KNOWS THE EAGLES BETTER THAN ANDY REID??? Here's the thing, coaches are Creatures of Habit, its not that common for a coach to be a Conservative Play-Caller & then flip the script. Andy runs a WC offense, duh! Could he have changed his ways a big with Different Personnel? yes, of course! But he hand-picked (maybe he didn't, but hell play the hand hes dealt) his QB - Alex Smith, who's skillset is really only good enough to run Andys WC scheme and their personnel makes sense to continue Reid's tendencies... Where the F am I going with this Reid tangent? Heres my point, too many people don't realize that Players just plug into an offensive system and adjust, Coaches typicall DO NOT change drastically... So the general Reid "knows" these Eagles is dead-wrong, if ANYTHING, these Eagles know Reids tendencides... Chip Kelly is a Wildcard, if u get a change Google this Yahoo! Article: "Chip Kelly football's version of the moneyball" I don't know the exact name, but ill post it to the mainpage shortly. Its not only a great read but a high intriguing philosophy. I think Kelly's "Green" Coaching experience showed lastwk, it wont thiswk.... Kelly knows A LOT more about Reid than Reid does about him... Philly BIG
