Barkley plans to compete to remain the first starting quarterback in the Chip Kelly era with Philadelphia, not defer or cower to anybody with the same objective, Geoff Mosher of CSN Philadelphia reviews.
"Well, they've both conducted great things, and Michael has already established an unbelievable career, " Barkley stated Friday, after the team's earliest rookie camp practice. "You come into play as a teammate for them, not as a enthusiast. You come in as someone who is getting ready to compete against them concurrently.
"I'll get to discover them those guys, and I'm sure out of what I've heard they've been outstanding men, but you come in knowing which are a job and they're looking to take that job too, so it's competition, you know. Competing is what it's all about. "
Barkley, who set all sorts of college and conference growing records at USC, is acclimating to Kelly's fast-paced offense with which has some similarities to criminal acts that Barkley engineered in earlier times but also has plenty of differences.
Many wonder how he fits in the picture, given his scarcity of mobility and arm effectiveness that recently came with criticism of scouts in addition to talent evaluators and aided in his descent by a potential top-15 draft pick if he come after his junior year to your first pick of the fourth round, 98th entire.
"You know, I'll make it meet, " he said. "It doesn't really make a difference what plays we work, I'm going to find a way to help this team out, and I know Coach Kelly has a way of working things out as well in the case of how he schemes along with how he calls games, so I'm not fearful. I'm just worried for the here and now and what I will do right now. "
Enjoy Foles did, Barkley caught first-hand glimpses with Kelly's Oregon offenses during their Pac-12 clashes, many which were high-scoring shootouts that put up crooked numbers on a scoreboard.
Two years in the past, he threw for 323 back yards and four touchdowns with the Ducks. Last year, this individual passed for 484 back yards and five touchdowns against Kelly's defense.
"As an opponent it's difficult since you also always are going back relating to the field after a get, it feels like, not really a punt or a turnover or even anything, " Barkley were recalled, "so as an opponent you are always on your heels in terms of, 'Oh I have to find back up get once again on and score. '
"So you will find there's lot of pressure, and after this that I'm on that end, it's a better situation and hopefully we can easily put that pressure with other teams. "
For the first time, he actually gets to do Kelly's offense instead involving rooting against it. And although there are offensive concepts that he's learning for the very first time, Barkley welcomed the possibility showcase his potential at this point.
"I love it. It's a new challenge, " he claimed. "It's new terminology. It's like learning a new language quickly period and so it's an additional step. I'm embracing it, and I loved being in existence [Friday]. "
