Let's begin this morning by crushing an erroneous report:
KEZI-TV in Eugene Oregon is reporting this morning the Dolphins have "contacted Chip Kelly's agent regarding the team's head coaching position."
Kelly is the very successful and much heralded head coach of the Oregon Ducks, which makes this sound plausible. Problem is it's not true.
A high-ranking Dolphins source tells me the idea the Dolphins have contacted Kelly in any way is "not true at all."
So that's that.
I will say, Kelly has an interesting take on playing offense. The Ducks run a play every 13 seconds and do it out of a spread formation with a twist. The twist is the Ducks are ultimately trying to get to down-hill running mode.
I will also say, Kelly has zero NFL head coach experience. Kelly's offense may not necessarily translate to the NFL.
