At least Jason David manned up and said he was struggling. Olin Kreutz flat out quit. I don't know which is worst...we eventually recovered from Kreutz but David hurt us the whole season. I think I'd have to go with Kreutz. Arguing with coaches...saying he didn't care anymore when a lot of effort was put in to sign him.

At least they saved some money with him retiring in the middle of the season, and if its true that unused cap room transfers to next year's cap room - then it wasn't that bad.

Also, Kreutz was signed for $2M/year with the possibility of additional $2M in bonuses, which he clearly didn't get.

By Kreutz quitting, we saved some money. I'm okay with that.
