It just cracks me up. I like Chris Petersen a lot, I think he's an excellent coach. But nobody would try to say that the guy isn't a bit of a red-ass.
He's a strict guy and I have no problem with that. And coming into a new situation, he needed to put a stamp on a team that had been run by an undisciplined lunatic drunk.
So of course, right after they're no longer bowl eligible and with everyone and their brother knowing that Peters is leaving early for the draft, Petersen tosses him out to send a message. Oh, and then Petersen gave him Peters his endorsement and high marks to any NFL coach that asked because everyone knew this kid loved football. Unlike Williams, who just ****ing quit, everyone around Peters gave the exact OPPOSITE statement - the kid gets himself in trouble because he loves football and cares so much about succeeding that it will occasionally get the best of him.
There is literally no worse comparison you can make than a RB that quit the football team because his heart wasn't in it and a CB that was tossed off because he couldn't keep his emotions in check.
