If yesterday's presser was any indication, he was either on the fence or already decided but hadn't finalized with Snyder, and thus was very non-committal with the media.

As for good reasons, the guys is 67, probably hasn't seen his family in 4 years, and has a grandson with leukemia, besides bringing this team through what is arguably one of the most difficult seasons to be endured by an NFL team.

I think that's reason enough to cut him a break for wanting to leave.

I'm talking about the fact that up until this point, whenever he was asked during prior seasons, if he would stay, he stated he intended on fulfilling his contract. He said it repeatedly. Don't say it, if you don't mean it. I have no problem letting him go if he's got a valid reason.
