THIS!!

Gore doesn't fit in Chip Kelly's system, he needs fast twitch RBs like McCoy, Sproles, and Balmer and L.James in Oregon. Gore is no where near that so he wont last in Philly.
oh frankie, i thought that u love us...or do you love the money even more???

however, hate on baalke incoming in 3...2...1...

Chip Kelly's running game has always been between the tackles. McCoy just kept running to the outside to avoid contact. Part of why hes gone.

Gore fits his north-south style. He had Jonathan Stewart & Legarrette Blount at Oregon, and used LaMichael James and Barner the same. The no huddle tempo is there just to mess with the defense, but it's still a power run scheme with west coast concepts.

People who know sports, know that a coach certainly has given a thought to a certain player, i.e. how to use him properly, before signing him. That will usually hold for players who earn 5 mio. dollar per year in particular.
Just because a frame of a system is installed somewhere, it doesn't mean automatically that a coach cannot tweak a system here and there in order to fit in a type of player which was never seen before.

And 1 QB, yet dopey reports out this morning of a Kap trade can be a possibility. Always smart to trade or let go proven players/coaches without anyone proven to fill their shoes.

I dont think that Hunter will retire due to neverending injury or whatever.
He is a very capable #3- and even perhaps #2-RB. FA and the draft provide a lot of talent at this position in order to get some additional insurance for the worst-case.

I know... HaRo screwed us in the end... at least Seattle already had a SB before they screwed themselves. Although their playcalls still made more sense than our SB playcalls

Give me a break. Go back and watch the end of that drive. The Ravens were stacking the box with a heavy blitz on every play. There was no opportunity to run against that front.

If anything we shouldve rolled Kap out and set up blockers to the outside.
GIVE ME A BREAK..... go back and look at the god damn first play,,,,, little stupid worthless james got two f**king yards against a defense that was stacked to stop the run,,, if james got two yards,,,, you are going to set there with a straight face and tell me that gore or dixon could not have gotten the last fiive?? my god defend roman but do not act stupid
Really really wanted Frank to retire with us.

this is about money, plain and simple. good for frank. if we would have paid more than two million dollars,, the front office should have been brought up on criminal charges. once he leaves, he means nothing to me, this is not about our alleged cheap front office, this is not about gore being loyal to an x coach,,, it is not about a super bowl cuz philly will get no where close,,, this is about the money train,,, it always has been in the n fl and always will be. onward and upward with hyde, hunter maybe a nice rookie and we will not miss a beat

that stuff does not happen anymore,, maybe with justin but thats about it. who knows he may pull a charles haley and come back in the end. he could also suck in philly and get batteries thrown at him like they did with santa and ricky watters. they over paid for him but he and them are no longer my concern come tuesday

of course this is the truth
funny thing is Gore would have had a better year here with us. Philly will still draft a RB and they have Sproles.
