If there was a poll taken of Andy Reid's approval ratings during the last days of his final season with the Eagles, you can almost certainly be assured that it would have been very low.

The Eagles lost a game they could have and should have won last Sunday. They couldn't contain San Diego quarterback Philip Rivers, who threw for 410 yards, completing 36 of 47 passes without an interception. That was their most significant failure. But what the game amounted to was third downs.
Chip Kelly was direct, accountable and right now seems very patient in dealing with the media and something new Kelly very rarely had to deal with at Oregon—losing.
