Eagles dismiss Juan Castillo and name Todd Bowles defensive coordinator.

Bowles has never an NFL D. coordinator, but was Dolphins interim coach last year. Went 2-1. Been a defensive coach in NFL since 2000.

Eagles announce firing of embattled coordinator Juan Castillo; Todd Bowles, the secondary coach, takes over. Bowles well respected
Man, at least Bowles is from the defensive side of the ball. (I know Castillo had defensive history). But this just reeks of face saving. Let's see if he benches Vick, then maybe you could believe it's an honest evaluation.

I hate when this happens. I'm always happy when a former Redskin climbs the ladder....but how good do you want him to do for a rival?

Per FO's stats through Week 5, Eagles were 24th in offense, 28th in special teams ... and sixth in defense. FOOTBALL OUTSIDERS: Innovative Statistics, Intelligent Analysis | 2012 TEAM EFFICIENCY RATINGS (http://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/teameff)
I didn't like Castillo as a DC (well I did while he was working for the Eagles), but honestly don't think this solves the deeper problems of theirs

I think Marty was the bigger problem, but Reid wasnt gonna do that.

He'll, that's who I wished was our DC. I'm all for a young guy a chance.

Huge meltdown of epic proportions last night by Rivers and Co. I'm with Smoot on the fact that I'm still amazed that Norv is still a HC. Dude should have been fired years ago along with AJ Smith.
I don't know how AJ Smith still has a job in the NFL.

Wow.. Their defense is the only thing keeping them in games.
Guess you missed the Detroit game. :D They blew a 10-point lead in embarrassing fashion.

Philly's problem is that bad offense they have and turnover machine qb

they refuse to run the ball with argueably the best RB in the league and their Oline is terrible. Man, Im enjoying this up in flames demise of the Eagles. Crazy people picked them to win the division
