    Well sure, but he's been struggling with the club since he broke his hand. I think he'll fight through it and get at least one sack against the Colts this week though.

    " I acted immaturely at some games in Houston. There were reasons for it, but that's not going to be discussed right now. The best thing probably was for me to be cut. "

    Quote from Mallett in nfl.com. I would actually like to hear his side of the story. Maybe he felt he outplayed Hoyer or he was not given a fair opportunity or that he given some sort of promise that he would be the starter. Who knows?

    Probably but acting like a pouting kid doesn't look good in a professional environment.

    If he felt like the outplayed Hoyer then he is more delusional then I thought.

    My guess is that Mallett thought the job was 100% his once we let Fitz go and re-signed him, and possibly even after we signed Hoyer. He was probably pouting internally throughout the whole competition, then it started to show when Hoyer won the job.

    I'd say he got an opportunity starting with game #2.... and then he failed (again).

    He probably felt disrespected after they talked him into signing a new deal and turning down more money with other teams that he'd have started on only to dick him around and give the starting job to an inferior QB based on OTA's.....a QB that had to be pulled in the very first game due to being just unacceptably terrible. There's no doubt that put a ton of strain on the relationship between Mallett and BOB.

    Either way, it's over now and hopefully everyone involved learned something from this absolute disaster. Hopefully Bob McNair and Rick Smith won't be taking BOB's word when he vouches for a QB ever again because the 2 QB's he vouched for this year is the reason we haven't already clinched the division.

    Are you his biased historian?

    The idea of a scrub like him feeling disrespected is laughable. And he never outplayed anyone, not even Weeden. BOB admitted that.

    But I guess he was the Tom Brady of Arkansas.

    We may have released him too soon. Just looking at our qb situation. But Ryan was mentally flawed.

    Well, he just marched the Ravens down the field against the Steelers for a passing TD......but he had a bad alarm clock and that's what is important.

    It's fun that you stick to narratives instead of posting anything of substance. Good job.

    Was his alarm clock bad or did he not know how to use it?
