It's clear that you can't please everybody.

Now, after reading a few articles, it just seems a bit premature to decide that the decisions to cut certain players were nonsensical.
Here is my opinion. The coaches and staff have looked at the players from every direction. Their statistics, physicals, and other attributes have been studied almost 24 hours and every day that they played or worked out with the team.
Except for a few B/R writers and professional sportswriters who were out there on the field watching and scoping the situation, most observers have had a limited view. The slice of the picture that we see is somewhat truncated.
During the regular season, however, we are going to be able to watch the starters, and then make some sound judgements about the decisions made during the past few days.
Some of us are going to look harder than others, but one thing most of us know, criticism will be posted.
If mistakes were made, those mistakes are going to be magnified.
In the meantime, let's give the coaches and staff a little room and space to exercise their judgement.
Here's hoping that wise decisions were made today.
