    Can Chip bring Kaepernick back from the dead?
    Will he look to bring in Manziel or RGIII?

    Should be interesting..

    Not the best option for the 49ers (I thought Coughlin would have been a great fit in SF) but there's a chance it could work out. I can see Kaepernick thriving in Chip's offense but do they have the personnel to effectively run it?

    In other news, Coughlin reportedly had the Eagles head coaching job but turned it down because the core of his coaching staff stayed in NY.

    I think Chip Kelly is a great coach and will do great in SF. As long as they don't give him the authority he had in Philly, I could see them making the playoffs within a few years.

    After the way Chip got rid of all the good black players in Philly, there's was no way he'd get any personnel power. Plus Trent Baalke doesn't give any up. One big reason many believe they didn't offer Hue Jackson the job.

    He was my last choice but so of course it's who they get. I never considered Shanahan or Coughlin to be serious candidates for the 49ers. I thought it was going to be either Payton, Jackson, or Kelly. And I wanted them in that order. Kap and Hyde should be fun to watch

    Jackson insisted to Browns management that he will not take the job unless they part ways with Manziel. So that's coming. His expected destination is Dallas.

    Lol 49ers. :') Looks like they're keeping Kaepernick now. But Chip will get rid of all their starting wide receivers and o-lineman first.

    Let's let it play out. I mean we are basically getting Andy Reid Jr but I'm optimistic. Reports that the team wants Jim Schwartz as the DC coming in

    I hope he knows what he's doing. I'm curious to see who he's gonna bring in at DC and hope he keeps everyone else where they are

    Probably yes but I heard that he has picked up spread offense and other things from other coaches that he might incorporate in his playbook also

    It's a bit worrisome to say the least lol. I mean I don't think it's a huge deal but 8 years in the league isn't that long. Eagles fans just gotta hope he knows what he's doing and he's not in over his head.

    I could see Bradford doing well in that type of offense. He could definitely work out. He is a bit inexperienced though. I mean prior to his offensive coordinator position he was the Eagles offensive quality coordinator from 2009-2010 and then you guys promoted him to QB coach from 2011-2012 and then he left to KC.

    Reid wasn't really s--- before he was our coach and look how that turned out so I'm gonna be optimistic

    Pederson is from the tree of Holmgren and Walsh

    DC looks like it could be Mike Pettine jr or Jim Schwartz

    let me ask you this-----do you think coaches are hard to judge?

    in other words---- is it difficult to decipher who the good and not good head coaches in the NFL are?
