I'm pretty sure the first line is a response to someone saying something to Pratt along the lines of "It's all good, we'll be back" because I think he says "No, it's not good! It's my last ####ing year! WTF? Why the #### do you touch the quarterback?"

I don't entirely blame him. He knows this could be his last chance to play for a championship and, while he had a hand in it with a terrible missed tackle, he didn't end the Bengals chances of winning in OT with a brain fart in the biggest moment of the game. This defense is based off of discipline. I'd rather have a player make an emotional, poor decision minutes after what is probably his final game with the team than have a player that makes a poor decision with the game on the line.

Vontaze/Pacman and now you can add Ossai to the list of mental meltdowns in the final seconds of a Bengals playoff game.

Like it or not, that's the reality.

Vontaze and Pacman were/ are repeat offenders. Ossai made a mistake. The other two suffer from uncontrolled impulse.
