(He did suck though, I'll give you that)
I felt the same way about cornerback Jason Allen of the Dolphins. The dude couldn't cover a dog turd with a bedspread and it took 1/2 the freaking season for somebody to realize it.
It wasn't just the Pats game, that was the icing on the cake. He has just been inconsistent and it was time to part ways with him.

I know - he'd missed like 7 field goals and then always had excuses and an attitude to go with it.
It's about damn time!
Reed was unhappy about his current contract situation, and was not hesitant to say as much to the media.
In addition, he was involved in a few off the field incidents last year.
I don't know if any of this had to do with the decision, but my guess would be that his sudden lack of consistency might be related to these distractions.
Anyway.............it's sad to see him go. He was money in the bank for a long time and actually (despite him running his mouth) seemed like a pretty funny and decent guy.
I hope the new guy can meet expectations.
