Q: The Fins cut Matt Roth, who was signed by Cleveland and played well in their last 6 games. If the Fins are in need of LBing help why did they let him go? Was it salary, work ethic, talent or what.

A: Agreed, Joseph. All of us are still waiting to hear a plausible explanation. The “football decision” idea still doesn’t pass muster, especially not after Roth went nuts in Cleveland those last six games.
