    I don't know if the Eagles can sustain this all season. In college, you had good second string, and third stringers. I don't think you have that kind of depth in the NFL.

    Eagles will definitely be one of the teams with the most viewership w/o a doubt.

    That is one of the few things they have to keep in mind , college has 80 players. NFL is almost 30 less.

    Oregon has done this on extra points in the 1st quarter for the last 3 years. Now a bunch of college teams are doing it. First time I've seen the formation from the line of scrimmage.

    This Eagles offense is sex. Not sure how long they can keep it up. No pun.

    this offense is fun to watch but Vick is taking too many hits

    Seems like the system can still work with out exposing Vick so much

    I have another thought (especially for those familiar with Oregon the last 3 years):

    The Eagles are running the ball 60% of the time, which is almost as much as Oregon did. Do you think Chip Kelly is using fatigue as a means to keep the ball on the ground?

    The Eagles defense is really surprising to me. People kind of expected the offense but the defense has been damn good itself.....so far.
