How Will Chip Kelly Handle Losing In the NFL?

So far, the fans in Philadelphia have greeted Chip Kelly with open arms.

“They’ve been great,” said the new Eagles’ head coach. “It’s obvious they’re extremely passionate about the Eagles. That’s evident no matter where you go. It’s been awesome. But we haven’t played a game yet either, so that could change.”

During his four-year run at Oregon, Kelly suffered just seven losses in 53 games. While anything’s possible, there’s a good chance he’ll suffer that many defeats in his first season in the NFL.

So how is that going to sit with the new Eagles’ head coach?

“Every day you go out there you don’t think, ‘Hey, we’re gonna win 46 out of 53,’ ” he said. “It’s a competition every single day, so I don’t think that way, that ‘Hey, I’m not used to losing.’ We’ve got the utmost respect for whoever we’re gonna compete against. I know it’s extremely difficult to win in this league. You just look at everybody’s record over the history of the game. It is a different game from that standpoint. But that’s just part of it. That’s the challenge. You look at it and kind of embrace it. You’re excited about it. Every single Sunday, you better bring your A game or you’re going to be in trouble.”
