Pollard had 1 bad game where he kept getting schooled in the open field.
First -- There are all of about 5 SSs in the NFL that will consistently make an openfield tackle.
Second -- THAT'S WHY YOU HAVE A PRE-SEASON!!
Pollard went out there trying to pick up the new scheme and had a bad game because he was struggling to figure out the new system. It's not the first time it's happened to a young kid, it won't be the last.
Instead of recognizing his talent and his work ethic, we cut him based on a lousy pre-season game and the fact that our head coach feels he is above developing the skills of younger players.
You're honestly trying to say that Bernard Pollard didn't care about improving his tackling because he hadn't been cut before? Nevermind the fact that the guy was going to be a free agent soon. Nah, lifetime financial security wouldn't have meant anything for the guy.
Your position here is completely assinine.
