Sep 16, 2014 at 06:21 AM

Chip Kelly addressed the media Tuesday afternoon, just 14 hours after his Eagles capped a thrilling 30-27 comeback victory over the Colts in Indianapolis. Kelly discussed what he saw from his offensive weapons and offensive line, as well as his appreciation for his team's level of preparation.

Chip Kelly: We had a few drops with the wideouts and we had a few where the ball could have been placed better.

Kelly: I think defenses have been pretty straightforward about the way they're approaching us, nothing we haven't seen before.
— Dave Spadaro (@EaglesInsider) September 16, 2014

Kelly: No one should be patting themselves on the back. We're fortunate to be 2-0 ... This group understands that.
— Dave Spadaro (@EaglesInsider) September 16, 2014

Kelly: No one rises to the occasion, you sink to the level of your training.
— Dave Spadaro (@EaglesInsider) September 16, 2014

Kelly: I just think there are a lot of matchup things with Zach Ertz ... QB always trying to find his best matchups.

Kelly on LeSean McCoy: We're not trying to win rushing titles, we're trying to win football games ... I think he's doing a good job

Kelly: Kendricks had a calf ... Won't talk to trainers until later ... We'll see where he is.
— Dave Spadaro (@EaglesInsider) September 16, 2014

Kelly: Thought D. Kelly and Gardner competed real well in first starts with us ... Helped to have big guy like Kelly against that front.
— Dave Spadaro (@EaglesInsider) September 16, 2014

Kelly: Impressed with how quickly Wade Smith has picked things up ... Fortunately didn't have to go to him
— Dave Spadaro (@EaglesInsider) September 16, 2014

Kelly: I thought Dennis Kelly did real well so I'm not anticipating any changes there this week.
— Dave Spadaro (@EaglesInsider) September 16, 2014

Kelly: We're built in a manner where we have more than two weapons so hopefully we always have someone to go to
