October 20, 200817 yr Author Watch the replay, you can't tell me that he didn't lower his head and lead with his helmet right into Rivers jaw. That is as cheap as it gets and very cowardly. He has always played like that, he won't hit anyone head on. He is the worst kind of dirty player, a sneaky dirty player. YOU need to watch the replay. Ward's head didn't even touch Rivers'.....
October 20, 200817 yr Rivers was in position to make the tackle, Ward was in position to make a block on Rivers. What's dirty about that? Lowering your helmet and spearing it in to Rivers' head. Not sure what you're missing here...
October 20, 200817 yr YOU need to watch the replay. Ward's head didn't even touch Rivers'..... So his jaw broke on it's own? Come on 2. The crown of his helmet went right in to him...
October 20, 200817 yr Lowering your helmet and spearing it in to Rivers' head. Not sure what you're missing here... Honestly, after watching it again, there is no way you can say Ward wasn't playing dirty.....What a loser.

Good hit, bad outcome.
October 20, 200817 yr If you admitt it or not, all bengal fans would love to have Ward on there team.
October 20, 200817 yr If you admitt it or not, all bengal fans would love to have Ward on there team. I'd love to see Ward unable to move...That's about all....
October 20, 200817 yr If you admitt it or not, all bengal fans would love to have Ward on there team. Not for one second.
October 20, 200817 yr Above all the drama in this thread... Ward is not a first time offender.. we all know how that goes...
October 20, 200817 yr Hines Ward... "I'm not doing anything illegal," Ward said. "It was a clean hit. I didn't stand over the guy or anything. I just celebrated the same as a guy does when he gets a sack. I'm not going to change my ways. If they're going to keep fining me for that, then I'm going to get fined all year. "I don't know if I hurt him or not, but that wasn't my intention. I saw he was hurt, said a little prayer for him, and that was it. I've been playing like that for 11 years. I guess I don't know what people are griping about."
October 20, 200817 yr Brandon Johnson replaced Rivers on the field.... “It was a good block. If I was in Hines Ward’s shoes, I probably would have taken the same shot. You can’t really blame him. But like I said, if he was playing quarterback, then there would have been a flag.”
October 20, 200817 yr It won't be this year and that's what burns linebackers coach Jeff FitzGerald, who thought the hit was uncalled for because it happened away from the play. "We'll take a look at it (on film), but that guy 86 (Ward) has been known to do that," FitzGerald said. "That's his deal, and that's bullcrap as far as I'm concerned. (Blocking) around the pile — that's the kind of game he likes to play.
October 20, 200817 yr Chad Uno weighs in.... "I'm mad about Keith getting hurt," Ocho Cinco said. "I don't think (it was a cheap shot). The play is going on; players are going after the ball, a crackback block, which is what it is called. You have to have your head on a swivel at some point."
