Seems like he's been hurt in some way or another since last summer. Even when he's healthy, he's not. He's slow to get up when he gets hit, and he hasn't really been hit a lot. Not being able to get out there, voluntarily or not, in a non-contact training camp period was the first sign that he wasn't going to be able to hack it.
I won't kill the team for franchising him. I'm thankful that he's not here on a 4-year 60 mil deal, because it's not all that crazy to think that could have happened. They probably thought that a vet like Green would be of some help to a rookie qb, which isn't a completely moronic idea.
It's time to finish the job and jettison contracts for Green-Dalton era stars that aren't healthy or getting it done. They could take the 40 mil they'd save letting go of Green, Ross, Atkins, and Dunlap and sign 2 or 3 effective players. It's never easy to see literal all-time team greats leave, but you have to make a business decision at some point. I know AJ did today on that interception.
