Mark Schlereth Rips Chip Kelly’s Offense

BY ADAM HERMANN | OCTOBER 3, 2015 AT 8:22 PM

Mark Schlereth joined Joe DeCamara and Adam Caplan on 97.5 the Fanatic on Friday to talk Week 4 football, and he held no punches when discussing what he despises about the way Chip Kelly is utilizing his offensive linemen this season.

“People talk about, ‘Oh, revolutionizing the offense under Chip Kelly, he’s going to change the game,'” Schlereth said. “You don’t change the game if you don’t block people on the line of scrimmage, and that’s been the biggest issue for them.”

Schlereth said he watched the Eagles' win over the Jets in Week 3, and realized that Kelly's offense only has one snap count because Kelly wants to run more plays in a shorter period of time.

"Chip Kelly, this is a Pop Warner snap count, essentially," Schlereth said. "It’s the same snap count on every play, and defensive linemen tee off on you. You’re letting them control the line of scrimmage, you’re letting them get penetration in your backfield on a consistent basis because you don’t change your snap count."

A former offensive lineman himself, Schlereth played 12 years in the NFL, his first six for Washington. During the interview, he was notably angry about the way Kelly is trying to implement his offensive linemen.

"I take it personally, because I know how hard it is. It pisses me off," Schlereth said. "I’d like to put Chip Kelly in a helmet and shoulder pads and let someone tee off on him 65 plays in a row, because it sucks. I’ve been there before, and that stinks."

Schlereth went on to point out that the Eagles are the only team in the league that focus on man-blocking on the front side of their line, and defended Jason Kelce's performance over the first three weeks.

"I hate it. Everything is man blocking on the front side," Schlereth said. "And so now everybody says, ‘Oh, Jason Kelce can’t play anymore. What’s wrong with Jason Kelce? He’s too small, he’s undersized.’ You try to run when the defense knows the snap count, and they’re driving you four yards into the backfield on every play, and you're helping your guard to help secure that nose guard before you work up to the middle linebacker because you want to be man-blocking on the front side of everything.

"It’s the only team in the league that does it that way, and the reason they’re the only team in the league that does it that way is because they’re stupid. They don’t understand NFL principles. You cannot do that. I don’t care who you are."

Schlereth also made a point to emphasize that he didn't think DeMarco Murray would fit in Kelly's offense and running scheme.

"DeMarco Murray doesn’t fit in that offense," Schlereth said. "Everybody said, ‘Are you crazy? He led the league in rushing.’

"You had LeSean McCoy. When you don’t block anybody on the line of scrimmage, and he makes four people miss and runs it for 40 yards, that’s not running the ball.

"It’s been an issue for the last two years, but people don’t see it because [McCoy] makes up for those things."

I think the truth is somewhere in the middle TBH.

I troll Brock (and vice versa) all the time about the NFL vs CFB difference, but I really do think that the caliber of athletes in the pro game combined with more stringent enforcement of illegal man downfield penalties limits offenses more than in college. There's more DB's that can hang in man coverage, so you don't get those gross mismatches like Texas Tech's DB's trying to play against Baylor's WR's yesterday. And NFL DL are far better, too, which also changes the equation.

BORTLES WATCH

@Travis7401 @Lloyd Carr

With a win against the Luck-less Colts, the Jags would move back into first play AND .500 - I have no clue when the last time the Jags were .500 at that point. I'm going to guess 2010.

Hasslebeck's arm is dead, so I'm sure they are going to try and pound it with Gore. Letting the Jags compact the box plays right into their (minimal) strengths. Game will probably be decided by BORTLES decision making.

Bears called for delay for a reciever "spiking" the ball. Barely let the ball fall out of his hands.

Bortles looking good? Haven't seen anything but his stats look great.

Winston on the other hand, WOOF.

Same old story - great first half, lackluster second. No mistakes so far though.

Jags probably should've won this already - lots of costly penalties, including one on 3rd and 10 to give Indy a new drive that they turned into their only TD.

Looks like he'll get a chance to win this game though...

Who would you rather have RIGHT now? Tebow or Bortles? :laughing:

The Chiefs have kicked 7 field goals today? Someone needs to take away play calling from Andy Reid when they cross the 40.

Well BORTLES just scrambled on 3rd and 7 for about 15 yards so I'm happy with who I've got.

Just made a great throw to get them in FG position...

In London they already know the result of this game, yet I'm sitting here on pins and needles waiting to find out what happens.

Heathen Bortles dashes his team's hopes with his lack of faith, causing 2 key missed field goals. Bortles fans can take solace in the fact that at least he played equally well as Hassleback, but Hassleback has a friend in Jesus and that was the difference in the end.

Is there a website from where I could--without charge--stream the packers-niners game? Being subjected to a vikings-broncos game is almost as bad as reading kella's commentary on a jags game.

Kansas City is a disgrace. Now that NC State is running the Andy Reid offense I know how painfully terrible it is. It's fucking loser ball

I'd rather lose this game than have Tebow as the QB.

It isn't like I can claim to be any better in this area, look what I did with the rigger's very own Tim Tebow type player... I sent him down to AAA and immediately went from the divisional championship game to the 5th worst record in the WBL. Having faith in those players is impossible. You see what they accomplish but you still can't bring yourself to believe in it. I learned my lesson and Douglass TAGG will be back on the 25 man roster this season, but I'm not sure if that will work because I've already displayed how I don't trust his powers.

I had the under and Jax +4 in that game so I'm pleased.

Huge win for Indy: with how Houston's playing they may be able to afford to sit Luck Thursday and let him heal up some more.
