appears to be what happened. >> i hate asking this question but i feel like it comes up all the time when teams are struggling. did he lose the locker room. >> what does that really mean. >> i know, right. but are guys still following him, in other word, who is the leader, is i that guy. >> the at the end of the day everybody has a different metvation for why they play the game. some may be to feed their families, some may be just to get a second contract, some want to be hall of fame players, et cetera. you rarely will just say i'm's playing for my head coach. at the end of the day you are playing for yourself, playing for your family, you are playing for the philadelphia eagles, city, the organization. did he lose the the locker room? whether he did or didn't i think that is irrelevant. i don't think he did because at the same time that is an ambiguous phrases that people say. they just throw it throughout. >> like i just did. >> thank you for saying that. >> more or less. >> so jeffery lurie makes his decision. i was surprised that it happened this year. it is not that i didn't think chip kill would i get fired. i thought wow get one more

year. because since january he is the gm. he is making that decision. do you think he can be that guy moving forward for another team? in other words bill belichick got a second shot. i has worked out well in new england. so has pete carol. >> i think 100 percent. chip kelly is a great head coach. he went rose bowl, rose bowl, national championship, nfc east champion, another ten-six record, didn't make the playoffs. and then this unfortunate season. he is a great head coach, does he need a fresh start? of course, after you have a bad taste in your mouth but just looking at his resume, track record it speaks for itself emmanuel ac ho changing the gear. looking good. >> yes. >> i have to step my game up. >> yes. >> yes. my man is a sharp dresser. >> of course, thanks. >> thanks very much. still to come on "eyewitness news" holy hoverboard a priest punished for using a popular toy during a christmas eve service and
