Dismissals in Philadelphia and Cleveland
7.05.2013
Philadelphia used their holiday week to start hunting heads after unsatisfactory start of the season. The first victim was the defense coordinator Juan Castillo, who was fired after a season and a half in office.
The defense of "the eagles" is 30 in sacks with the miserable 7.5 despite the presence of the played "Pro Bowl" Trent Cole and Jason Babin. Philadelphia is 12th in allowed yards with 330.8, and for the stay of Castillo, who spent 12 years before that as a charge of the offensive line have allowed the sad seven twist in the last quarter.
According to media in the City of Brotherly Love the next on the block is Michael Vick. The owner of the "Eagles" Jeffrey Lurie now opposes his release, but tin he quarterback's contract stipulates that the management has made available the day after the Super Bowl XLVII to get rid of him without any additional financial obligations. If this happens Vic will get away with $ 18.5 million due under the remainder of the contract.
Dismissal had and in Cleveland, and only minutes after team owners approved the shift of power in the hands of Jimmy Heslam III for the sum of $ 1 billion. President of the 'Browns' Mike Holmgren was informed that his contract will be terminated at the end of this season when the team from Ohio has only one victory. Successor will be Joe Banner, who left Philadelphia in the summer. The fate of the coach Pat Shermer and General Manager Tom Hekart remains unclear.
