Chip Kelly throws his support behind Sam Bradford after three interception performance

Philadelphia Eagles coach Chip Kelly gave a vote of confidence to his struggling quarterback Sam Bradford after a three interception game Monday night against the Giants.

“Sam’s our quarterback,” Kelly said, via Philly.com. “We have full confidence in Sam.

Despite a 27-7 victory, Kelly felt inclined to defend Bradford and give him a vote of confidence.

“It’s drill work. Obviously, a lot of situations we do in the training, like (with every team), are controlled situations. When it comes to the game, it’s an uncontrolled situation. We need to simulate it as best we can, but you also can’t go live, full-go, and have a rush get after him and try to hit him in practice, just because you don’t want to lose your quarterback in practice.
