Donovan McNabb sounds skeptical of Chip Kelly’s offense

MacNabb may be hatin', but he has a point.

What exactly is the benefit of aiming at running 90 plays a game in the NFL?
What is the benefit of only using half the clock on every snap?

If you are losing in the latter part of the 4th quarter by more than 7, ok, but otherwise, aiming at 80-90 offensive snaps, seems to me Vick is going to be hurt and in IR by week 4 instead of his usual week 8-9.

More opportunities to score means more scoring probably. SP used Operation Ambush in the SB to extricate an extra possession. I wish the Saints went more no huddle than they do now.

Their is no benefit.

Saints are even dialing back more and playing ball control to keep the defense off the field more than ever.

Its called Complimentary football, something the Eagles refuse to do.
