Eagles' first practice draws 30,000 fans!

Read an article yesterday that the NFL refs want nothing to do with the speed Kelly wants to run his offense and will hold the ball until they are ready. If he cant run his offense, it will be interesting. If not, it will be interesting.

That would be a horseshit move.
 
Referring to this:

"The NFL's policy on substitutions won't help the Eagles, either. If an offensive team substitutes a player, Blandino said, it doesn't matter how quickly that player gets to the line of scrimmage—the defense will also be allowed to make its substitutions. NFL referees, he said, will go so far as standing over the ball to make sure the defenders have time to get in the game."

They do the same thing in college and they have for years.

Rule 3-5-2-e:

While in the process of substitution or simulated substitution, Team A is prohibited from rushing quickly to the line of scrimmage with the obvious attempt of creating a defensive disadvantage. If the ball is ready for play, the game officials will not permit the ball to be snapped until Team B has placed substitutes in position and replaced players have left the field of play. Team B must react promptly with its substitutes.

Chip's offense was deadly in Oregon because they DIDN'T have to substitute. They used the same 11 guys in a variety of formations at high tempo to create nightmare matchups.

Yes a lot of the time Chip would have his Ducks no huddle and completely change the formation cause his guys are so versatile. Like DAT one play can be a RB and another can be a WR.

So by doing that he didn't allow defenses to adjust. I'm sure he'll do that in the NFL.

If Percy Harvin is healthy the Seahawks will probably try that sometimes as well.
