Saturday Notebook - Iggles Blitz
Chip Kelly changed a lot when he took over the Eagles and arguably the biggest difference is how he handles injuries. Andy Reid was open and detailed with his injury information. Chip Kelly says as little as possible. He doesn’t even meet with the medical staff prior to the media. This probably isn’t an accident. Kelly can then say "I don’t know anything because I haven’t met with the medical staff yet." This drives the media nuts. They have readers/listeners/viewers who want updates and there just isn’t good info to give out.

Ertz: I can help solve Eagles' red-zone problems - CSN Philly
The solution to his puzzling, season-long red-zone problems could be staring Eagles coach Chip Kelly right in the face. Zach Ertz isn’t the type to publicly lobby for more playing time or second-guess his coach’s play calling through the media, but he’s waiting to have his number called more often going forward, especially when the Eagles get inside the opposing 20-yard line.

Concussed Cardinals Safety Couldn't Remember Game He'd Just Played - Deadspin
Arizona Cardinals safety Tony Jefferson had a great game on Sunday, probably the best of his young career.
