re: Chip Kelly: There is something there if the ex-players keep saying something

1. Agreed, but I do feel like he may not understand how to cultivate relationships or that he makes an effort to. How some people perceive that is based off their life experiences. I dont think we can lessen others feelings just because it hurts us to say he may not understand the culture of younger...

No, but have a connection with your players and get to know them. The players are clearly saying he is not nor does he seem to think it's necessary ...

Lets analyze Chip Kellys comments from yesterday:
[quote]No, and I said talk to the players we have on our current team. We have an open door policy. I had a long talk with Brandon last spring when he came in and sat down and talked with me. You can come talk to me whenever you want to come ta...

[quote]here aren't too many white NFL players with big personalities and public egos[/quote]
Is statement is full of so much "bias".
Brees, Brady (do we see what he is doing right now), Manning, Romo, Gronk are Big personalities with public egos. ...

[quote]because it's not a misunderstanding of a culture. it's exclusion of a culture from the locker room. the pats do that, too, fwiw
i'm sure he understands it well enough and that's why he doesn't want it around his locker room

That is false. The pats locked into a veteran lad...

"Idiots": "but coach, this a results driven league, and we didn't have one player that could knock off the top of a coverage, vertically, last year. But you chose to keep a receiver that is the worst in the league, who is a decisive figure in the locker room, overpaid, and can't stretch a coverage. ...

GTFO.

Do you say that from your own personal knowledge or is this just something you think :lol: ...

You don't even have to compare him to a black coach--- has a white coach ever been accused of this ? I haven't heard of it. and I'm sure we've had a more than few questionable head coaches ...

[quote]That's why.
It's something he'll need to figure out pretty quickly.[/quote]
He won't admit it publicly, but he better do something behind the scenes. In a talent driven league, schemes alone won't win. There aren't enough of "his" guys for him to be as rigid and inflexible as he seems....

[quote]You keep pushing "culture" yet continue to ignore the obvious. He has signed African American players, he has always had black players, he recruited black players, he has dealt with players like Blount in college.
The Riley thing happened, people moved on but for some players they didn't an...

[quote]Chip Kelly what's things done his way, which is selfless, egoless football and doesn't care of it costs him one of the best Backs In the league. [/quote]
But in a players league, he wants all the attention to be on him? Thats self centered to me; hes better off in college with that mentali...

[quote]What do you guys think it is? I just heard sal palentino of ESPN say hes never seen a head coach, including the coaches from the past generations who wed think would have a harder time connecting with todays generation/culture, have such a disconnect and have so many ex players bash him with ...

[quote]Lets compare him to a coach like Tomlin, that players seem to love. I'm sure Tomlin isn't sporting a bottom grill and c-walking through the locker room, but he probably connect to them in a certain way. Is it because he is black? I doubt, I think its because of his geniune personality. Chip j...

[quote] think something is weird about Chip but I don't think he's racist. Its just sort of sad that the race card has to be played.[/quote]
Agreed, but IMO, you cant discredit the african american experience or the experiences of those players. A team builder considers all of that when it comes ...

[quote]I don't think he's a racist at all and that one or two guys idiotic comments have smeared his image while one or two others are just piggybacking onto that stupidity. But hey, just my opinion. If Chip was a racist how could he even stand to be a football coach? This topic needs to die soon.[/...

I dont think he is racist either, but I think what you said is what the issue is. Have we ever had another head coach been rail...
