Letting a mediocre LB go didn't bite us.

Losing his replacement to IR in preseason is what bit us.

I think more what he meant is that Fujita's insight was crucial in the game against Cleveland. What he told them about Brees's tendencies led to that defense dismantling our offense. It most certainly bit us in the ass. We were a revolving door at OLB anyways. At least Fujita was solid and stayed on the field. Not nearly as much of a liability as Shanle was this season.

EDIT: I sure am gonna miss Shockey though
