Houston might very well take the paycut, as he would see how close this team is to a super bowl. The paycut would be in the form of an extension, which could convert his salary to signing bonus with low payouts the next two years. If I could get Houston for like $8M a year for three years, I'd probably do it.
You simply can't cut berry until after next season, unless you honestly feel like he's not even worth a roster spot.
