The Eagles handed the personnel department over to coach Chip Kelly this offseason and Kelly used his new power to make big changes to the team that he’s led to 20 regular season wins in his first two seasons with the team.
Those moves have been met with confusion from some and criticism from others, which is something that Jimmy Johnson thinks Kelly is going to have to live with. Johnson had the same kind of power in Dallas and Miami and said that critics of the approach will persist until Kelly wins the way Johnson did in Dallas or Bill Belichick has in New England.
