I would bet good money on Bowles being Head Coach next year

Mike Holmgren out in Cleveland as well apparently according to ESPN.

Holmgren was always going to happen though. Shurmur and Heckert are both virtual certainties to be gone after the season

Never got the appointment of Castillo and I can't say i'm suprised.
Still won't stop Mike Vick from fumbling or Andy Reid from forgetting LeSean McCoy exists

Yep, Castillo deserves to be fired for his qb-must-turnover-the-ball-5x-a-game defence.
Looking at the players on that team, they should have a dominant D, maybe the change in coordinator will help. The talent is definitely there, Cole, Babin, Cox, Asomugha, DRC, Ryans, etc

Their D has been okay by and large, sacks have been an issue in the last few games. Their offense and turnover are the issue seems a bit harsh.

There are more problems than just Vick being crap

Re: Eagles DC Juan Castillo fired
Turns out that NFL team's have been getting it wrong all these years.... turns out that the way to fix an underachieving offense is to fire the defensive co-ordinator! The term "scapegoat" springs to mind here. The Eagles D may not be playing as well just now as perhaps it can, but there's no doubt that they would have a better record just now if their offense was playing at the same level as their defense!
