Belichick talking to Kelly about his no huddle offense is very different than "discussing the design of the offense and how to make it work in the NFL".  Again, credit to Kelly but Mav alluded too, you went way overboard.

"It's more than a two-way street," said Kelly, whose second-ranked Ducks play at Arizona State on Thursday night. "When you get a chance to visit with Pete Carroll and Bill Belichick, I get a lot more out than I guarantee they did.""I think a little of that is overblown," Kelly said of his influence. "I don't think you're going to see Tom Brady running the zone read."

Not sure how you see those as two different things. Chip discussed the design of his offense with BB and how to make it work. That is pointed out in the reference. Not sure how that's "overboard" but whatever, you can interpret it as you wish. I'm not getting into another back and forth, I'm simply going by what I read and what I quoted.

The good news though is that Foles isn't going anywhere, which is good, since he'll have to start at some point this season even if Vick is named the starter to begin with.

There you go again, bloviating that the Pats ran an Oregon (Chip Kelly) offense. A completely fallacious statement. The offense was entirely Patriots. The only thing that came from Chip was the no huddle as a base offense. Chip influenced the Pats philosophically, not schematically.

Good call on Foles to the Chiefs.

Perfectly stated.    Except, there's no reason to bring race into this.

No love for Archie Bunker?

I challenge you to find a quote where I said that.

Proof right there that your reading comprehension is suboptimal. Foles blows. I'm not sure anyone is dumb enough to trade for him.

...well Marty is THAT dumb so hopefully we can dump him on the Jets.

As long as you don't expect anyone to take you seriously than cool story bro. But Foles isn't going anywhere.

Its not a comeback mav, its just stating an opinion. You think Foles "blows" already after 7 whole games, which is why everyone is glad you're not a GM and hopefully not even a pee wee football league coach. Meanwhile, Foles is still on the team for now as he should be. Nobody is crowning him as a stud, but he shown obviously more to the people whose opinion actually matter than he has shown you.

I have no problem with a difference of opinion. I do continue to think it laughable that you say "those whose opinion actually matter" referencing people who agree with you.

Anyway, lets keep the facts straight here. I reacted to an above post stating that I said Foles would be traded to the Chiefs, and I said no such thing. You constantly confuse, obfuscate, and misconstrue. In fact, I'm thinking of calling you I'mhighboy from now on.

I don't care what you call me. Nobody does Mav. You're irrelevant. The reference to "those whose opinion actually matter" is a reference to the people in charge, not people who simply agree with me. If you had even basic reading comprehension and didn't just "react" to what you're reading you would know this. The point was that your opinion of Foles (he blows) differs from those who actually run the team. Most people wouldn't draw such an extreme conclusion based on what they saw on the field last year after only 7 whole starts. That's all. Also, if we're getting the facts straight, I never said anything about your prediction that Foles would be traded, so your accusation that I confuse or misconstrue is just patently false.
