BG doesn't. He's from Ohio.
I've never assured a healthy Bradford, but all you have to do is see how successful Vick, Sanchez, and Foles were in Chip's system to assess the "playing well" portion of the equation.

If you call losing to the redskins in a must-win game being "successful", than your expectations for Bradford make a lot more sense.
Weird that a guy who only got an account 11 months ago would know who that is.
Even if we beat the Redskins, we weren't making the playoffs.
And please, Mark Sanchez was written off by the NFL and Chip turned him into something. He isn't a great QB, but he was functional in the offense. Bradford is a much more talented QB with a much better arm.

Wait is Sanchez a viable starter now? What did I miss??
You missed the part right after. He's functional. He isn't useless.

He has more playoff appearance than Tannehill.

That "functional" mindset works in college but it's going to end up killing Chip's pro career unless he gets lucky.

So he turned him into himself? Sanchez has been nothing but a back up for years now and he's still just a back up, Chip didn't do anything. Sanchez is just too inconsistent and that hasn't changed. You trying to claim otherwise to praise Chip makes no sense because Sanchez is still Sanchez.
Someone post the buttfumble gif.
And he has more legitimate playoff wins than brady too,

Brady legitimately won all of his playoff games, Tannehill has zero.

Sure he did little buddy, sure he did.
Think about it this way, you waste your time watching regular season games that are meaningless for the browns so don't waste your time with games that are meaningless by default.

and his mustard meatball subs
Are you serious? He completed 64% of his passes, his previous career high was 56%. He had a QB rating of 88, his previous career high was 78. He looked much more competent than he ever has. That doesn't make him great, or even an option at starting QB by any means, but he played much better under Chip than anyone would have imagined when he signed.

Then what does that make him? A back up....
One that I certainly trust keeping the team afloat if Bradford missed a game or so this season. That's more than anyone thought he was capable of.

Are you going to watch the 2014 Patriots America's Game?
It's Preseason. No need to stay up. Just sleep in the normal hours like a good person.

Yes, but we actually have a shot at winning this game and maybe even see a couple of decent Manziel plays? Won't happen in the regular season.

Go to Thailand, visit Pattaya, fuck as many women and transvestites as you can, pick up an STD.
go thai
Thailand for sure.
Most experts expect the Broncos to have a top 5 D. you are just writing tired memes and doing zero research.

Good advice
It would be in your best interest to sleep like a normal EU person would.
I'm going on a trip to Western NY later, so I won't be able to respond, but I'll just give my defense of the Eagles and why I'm excited about the year.
In spite of having butt fumble and Nick Foles as the QB, this team has been a top offense the past two years. Last year, with Butt Fumble leading us, we were 9-3 and looking at the playoffs, before a historically terrible secondary burned out and allowed opponents easy completions down the stretch. Chip created a system where even mediocre quarterbacks were able to put 30 points on the board. And from what I've seen of Bradford, I think he's at least an upgrade from Sanchez, so there's no reason to think he won't do even better in this offense. Ignoring injuries, I believe he'll do great. Of course, you can't do that with Bradford, so that's understandable. Add in that the Eagles haven't had a single QB play the whole season in over a decade, and yeah, he will probably get injured, and that'll be that.
But even ignoring Bradford, I'm excited for this team. Ignoring the O Line, this group is very young, and they are already extremely talented. Our D Line is incredible, but go unnoticed a) because of the awfulness of the secondary negated their skill, and b) in a league with lines like the Dolphins, Jets, Texans, Lions, etc. it's easy to get missed. Our WR core looks strong with Matthews and Agholor, and hopefully Huff breaks out. Zack Ertz has been great at TE, and we have decent depth behind him. Our RB situation is fantastic, and we invested heavily in the secondary to make it better. Even if the secondary is average our defense will be vastly improved. Our O Line is old, but still talented, and I think they'll continue to play well.
We may still not have the answer at QB, but all of the other positions on our team look really great right now. There's a lot of potential, and it feels good to be an Eagles fan looking to the next couple years. And Bradford could stay upright and light it up. The season could easily prove me wrong, but I believe in Chip and think the next couple of years will be good for the Eagles

So successful that one of them is starting for a team that's saying goodbye to their home in the most recent instance in sports where the fans don't give a shit they're going, another one is essentially done in the league, and only one of them is still there (and it's as a backup in a QB situation anybody with a brain following the sport makes fun of)

Check out the Top Gear Vietnam Special on YT. Really worth watching and yes, it looks like a fantastic place.
I can pick my working hours, though. So I can sleep in til almost noon if I want to.
Can't wait to see all those wide open receivers against Gilbert.

You're literally describing a back up QB, I trust Matt Moore to play a few games if Tannehill goes down...that's all people think he's capable of, can he do it better under Chips system? I guess...I mean back up QBs run a limited playbook anyways but congrats on having a good back up? I mean sure a lot of teams don't even have that (Browns) so you've got a leg up on those teams.
Well that's true, Watching Maziel try and play football could be entertaining.
So successful as in we've been a top offense in the NFL for the past 2 years.
