Really? He's still interviewing. Also, if I'm Cleveland, he makes no sense to me. Weeden and Richardson in his offense? Is he going to switch to some pro-style offense all of a sudden?

I like the Broncos also but look at their schedule. 9 of their last 11 games were against teams with losing records. I know they don't control who they play but the Broncos had by far the easiest division/schedule.

There is a rumor that Colt McCoy could make a comeback. Richardson, of course, is awesome regardless.

I don't think Chip Kelly is necessarily a coach that has to run one system.
He could just be a smart football mind that finds the best system for the players he has and the level he is coaching. He runs the system he does at Oregon because it gives him the best advantage at the college level. Probly won't work in the pros, but I think he's smart enough to engineer something that will.

Also, Weeds ran a no huddle spread with some success at OKSt. You don't have to have a running QB to do it. Richardson will get around 2K total yards in Chip's system.
Good read on Chip if anyone is interested: https://www.grantland.com/story/_/id/8631595/the-success-chip-kelly-oregon-ducks-offense-more-familiar-seems

Unless they give him a boatload of money (5M+ a year) Kelly would be dumb to take the Browns or Bills job. I seem him more in the Spurier/Saban/Petrino mold.

I think Chip Kelly is a fool to leave Oregon. He has over 65 freshmen/sophomore on his current roster. I think he could build a long lasting legacy in Oregon, and he is gambling a lot if he goes to the NFL, especially the Bills or the Browns.

Wow Kelly is already making 3.5 - 4M a yr. Maybe it will take 6M/yr to get him.

No mention of the best team in the NFL right now? Meh.
...The Seahawks will make believers out of everyone here tomorrow... And after they take out the Broncos of the NFC (ie. the team that's benefitted the most from a weak schedule) The Falcons. People will really take notice.
