EAGLES HEAD COACH CHIP KELLY PRESS CONFERENCE NOVEMBER 16, 2015
admin
Q. Did you get enough production out of your outside receivers, in particular WR Miles Austin and WR Riley Cooper at 97 snaps and no catches?
CHIP KELLY: Yeah, we had a couple of drops in there. I don’t think Coop [Riley Cooper] was targeted, so sometimes that’s not the receiver’s fault in terms of where his production is; he can’t do anything except run his routes and run his plays. But we missed Miles on the one, obviously the crossing route on the drag for the interception, and then we had a drop going down the other way. And then we had the one that we threw to him but we didn’t get the foot down inbounds.
EAGLES MISS OPPORTUNITIES IN LOSS TO MIAMI

The Eagles wasted or threw away opportunity after opportunity and found a way to lose to the Dolphins 20-19 on a brisk, beautiful afternoon at Lincoln Financial Field.
Adding to the disappointment is the loss of running back Ryan Mathews and quarterback San Bradford who both left the game in the second half with concussion symptoms. Bradford also suffered a should injury on a hit by Chris McCain in the third quarter.
Despite the loss, the Eagles are in the same position in the NFC East after the game as they were before the game.

EPISCOPAL ACADEMY’S ‘MOOSE’ MINICOZZI IS LOOSE AT DICKINSON
Joseph Santoliquito
Still, something kept dragging the 5-foot-10, 270-pound John Minicozzi, or “Moose,” back to the football field. The kid who was undersized at Episcopal Academy found himself tiny again, even by D-III standards. It’s always been Minicozzi’s passion for the game that’s propelled him to overachieve and it’s led to Moose starting as a true freshman at Dickinson, at defensive tackle.
