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.

So that should answer the question, Can Peyton Manning do it like he used too?

I see a house cleaning coming in San Diego.

Norv has to be part feline because as a head coach, the dude has nine lives! Great, great offensive coordinator, but barely a .500 head coach.

Never liked Norv as a HC. Game looked like a rout so I watched the Skins beat the Vikes again. Sounds like I missed a pretty good game. But I saw a pretty awesome one too.

Former Redskin and all-around good guy Todd Bowles replacing Juan Castillo as Eagles' defensive coordinator

Hmm. I didnt think it was the defense that was the issue. I wonder why this happen. Got a feeling we will see bring in Jaun Castillo as DC's DC!! LOL

This is Reid doing whatever to save his ass before his run ends

Eagles dismiss Juan Castillo and name Todd Bowles defensive coordinator.

[B]Bowles has never an NFL D. coordinator[/B], 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. [url=http://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/teameff]FOOTBALL OUTSIDERS: Innovative Statistics, Intelligent Analysis | 2012 TEAM EFFICIENCY RATINGS[/url][/QUOTE]

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

Re: Around the NFL week 6 style
 

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.
