I don’t know if anyone in NFL history has ever taken a sledgehammer to a 10-6 team the way Chip Kelly has with his Philadelphia Eagles. Make no mistake about it – Jeff Lurie might be the owner, but this is Chip’s team.

Need evidence? Look no further than this depth chart that Eliot Schorr-Parks of NJ.com shared on Twitter yesterday morning. It shows all of the Eagles who were on the roster when Kelly was hired in 2013. All of the ones who are gone have been crossed off:

Unreal.

I really like some of the personnel moves that Kelly has made (the LeSean McCoy/Kiko Alonso trade) and others not so much (releasing Evan Mathis).

Kelly has put alot of pressure on himself and his team. If the Eagles don’t make a deep playoff run over the next couple of years he may be remembered as the man that tried to turn a good Eagles team into a great one and fell flat on his face.

I think it goes one of two ways: either Kelly wins a Super Bowl with the Eagles over the next three years, or they fall flat and he becomes an all-time NFL laughingstock.

Stay tuned.
