Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie addressed the media on Wednesday December 30, 2015 to discuss his reasons for firing head coach Chip Kelly.
When Lurie was asked what he would be looking for in a head coach going forward, he responded…
“I think in terms of what we’re looking for in a coach, it’s several things, and it’s No. 1, a smart strategic thinker. That’s a given. You’ve got to be looking out for the short-term, mid-term and long-term interests of the franchise.
Looking for somebody who interacts very well and communicates clearly with everybody he works with and comes in touch with. Understands the passion of our fans and what it’s like to coach the Philadelphia Eagles. It’s a unique and incredibly passionate fan base that just wants to win, and you’ve got to incorporate that in your life and in your heart and you’ve got to be willing to do that….”
Q. After that, can you tell us that the players believe in what you’re trying to do?
CHIP KELLY: I don’t think anybody played well today, and I don’t think we’re talking about beliefs. We just didn’t play well as a football team in any facet of the game and there’s no excuse for that.
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.
If the Eagles win in Carolina they could spark a run like 2013, Chip Kelly’s first year. Lose and they have to think about a 3-4 record for two weeks and a road date against the Dallas Cowboys.
