Eagles fired coach Andy Reid.

The longest-tenured head coach in the NFL and winningest head man in Eagles history is out after 14 seasons. "The search for the new coach of the Philadelphia Eagles will begin immediately," owner Jeffrey Lurie said in a statement. Reid finishes his Philadelphia tenure with a 130-93-1 record (.585), and nine playoff appearances in 14 years. He won the rugged NFC East six times. But the Eagles have sunk from 10-6 to 8-8 to 4-12 over their past three seasons, and weren't competitive for large chunks of each of the past two years. Reid remains one of the best head coaches in all of football, but the time had come for a change. Reid has said he plans to continue coaching in 2013, and should have little trouble finding a new gig. As for the Eagles, ESPN's Jon Gruden and Bengals DC Mike Zimmer are two early rumored candidates.

This guy might consider taking some time off before getting back into coaching. He's a wreck on some personal levels.

I'm not on the "fire Whis" bus, but I would be ok with a guy like Andy Reid or Lovie Smith being brought in. Proven winners from top conferences and whose stock is down.
