Todd Bowles agreed to become the head coach of the New York Jets on Tuesday night, ending his two-year stint as defensive coordinator for the Arizona Cardinals.
The Cardinals’ defense was one of the best in the league under Bowles. In 2013, Arizona was first in rush defense. After losing key players throughout the season, the Cardinals continued to be impressive under Bowles, ranking fifth in the NFL in points allowed.
Some Cardinals took to Twitter to express their thoughts on the news.
Tell me this news was a dream!!!👀

Coach Bowles is a very smart coach. 1 of the smartest coaches I've been around. Has a very similar scheme 2 Rex so the defense won't change
