LANDOVER, Md. - Let's not overcomplicate things. This offseason, Chip Kelly set out to build a team with a certain identity. He agreed to pay the NFL's rushing leader $8 million per year to join his backfield. He added a second power runner who was a feature back with his previous team. He traded for a quarterback who was not supposed to carry the fortunes of the team on his shoulders.
Four weeks of an NFL season is more than enough time to suggest that the Eagles are not capable of being the team that Kelly envisioned.
