Sam Bradford's Performance Shows He's a Perfect Fit in Chip Kelly's System

In his first opportunity to experience extended action as a member of the Philadelphia Eagles, quarterback Sam Bradford showed exactly why head coach Chip Kelly decided to trade Nick Foles for the former No. 1 pick.

Bradford is an ideal fit in Kelly's offensive system.

An early misnomer about the mad scientist's offense once he made the leap from the collegiate ranks to the NFL was he needed an mobile quarterback to properly run his high-octane offense.

Nothing could have been further from the truth.

Quarterback play in Kelly's offense is predicated on decision-making and getting the ball out quickly and accurately in order for the receivers to create after the catch.
