Wow, I really didn't see that coming.
Here is the full article for you to read!
He had 3 years and $20 million left on his contract

... Boy, that's a lot of money.

Well that one is surprising. It really is all about "what have you done for me lately?".

Well Denver sucked it up this year. Cutler was money most of the year and they just couldn't hold off the competition. In a division with a consistently terrible team from Oakland, a very hit and miss team from KC that ALWAYS has QB troubles, and a San Diego team that under performs especially this season then what else could be expected. Yes he coached them to 2 SuperBowl Championships but that was a decade or more ago.
He'll find his way to another team if he wants to coach. He's got talent but wasn't getting it done in Denver. I mean he no longer had the excuse of a two bit QB to deal with. Cutler is for real!

I was surprised by this also.
Heard today Bill Cowher may go the Jets. He earlier turned them down, but the Jets are still trying to get him. I would stay in the booth if I was Cowher, much easier and less stressful job.
I think the Browns are going to interview Eric Mangini also.
