Yeah not understanding the hate on this one

And here's another roster move

Yeah, because on a weak defense the 4th leading tackler gets cut cuz he's not one of Peeties boys.

Maybe, 4th leading tackler or not, he was being an A-hole, we don't know. Coaches are paid to rule over the team. Of course, they have to do it with a strategic plan, good communication, etc. We don't have any idea what is it like in the locker room or practice field. But, if the report is true that the locker room is fine with cutting him, whose side are you on? Why are you blaming the coach?

He got way too much for a LB!

So he wasn't buying in and was becoming or was a cancer in the locker room. Also the 4th leading tackler on a weak defense isn't exactly worth bragging about. If dude was so good and in demand, someone would've traded for him before he was a fa just to secure his rights. Instead every single team, including the 4 that contacted him after he was cut, we're willing to take a chance on him signing elsewhere

You didn't think this one out very well

Both Cooper and Pratt wanted out. Not a good sign for a supposed player coach.

Hondo is the mouthpiece for the owner.

I liked him coming out of college (an avid UK homer here) but he’s regressed. Low risk signing.

So I just checked Spotrac. Pratt's new Colts contract ($1.17 M) is just over a quarter of what he was making here ($4.26 M). Possibly another reason we didn't/couldn't trade him.

What is he saying?

He's saying Pratt was a good player, so his departure wasn't for playing-related reasons.

Sounds like the reports about him being a total PITA in Cincinnati were correct.

We're paying Pratt regardless. When you cut a player he can take pennies to play for a winner. The colts gave him a 1.17 mill raise

No team waste $$$$ like the Raiders do...we have it down to a fine art Well maybe the Browns?

He is saying this coaching staff has its head up its ass

Edit: bad attitudes can be coached up. This management team couldn't coach its way out of a wet paper bag.
