September 20, 201015 yr Heard it on Mike and Mike this morning. He'll likely be fined over those remarks. No doubt. I did agree with Golic. Why is he mad at QB's? They didn't make the rule.
September 20, 201015 yr Just for the record Carson is in the top 10 All-Time most accurate QB's. There is a BIG difference from being the most accurate and being a winner! Short little dump off passes and screens will help your accuracy, but let's face it in the NFL it is all about wins and Carson has led the Bengals to zero playoff wins. Ken Anderson used to be very accurate too, because he threw screens every other play. The bottom line is I would rather have an accurate passer that can also complete some passes vertically too.
September 20, 201015 yr Good win for the Bengals. Being 0-2 with a difficult schedule ahead would have been a tough task to undertake. Carolina is bad so 2-1 will be a good start. I thought the Ravens got a raw deal with their scheduling. Tough emotional game on a Monday night at NY, then have to turn around on short notice to the division winner. They nearly pulled it off though.
September 20, 201015 yr Ray-Ray is NOT happy! He is 100% correct on both plays, and I couldn't be happier. Didn't get to watch ESPN this morning, and my commute to work is very short now that I moved so I don't listen to Mike and Mike anymore. What was said?
September 20, 201015 yr My roommate was at the game and said he saw them bickering at each other at one point but the next possession was his biggest catch and run of the day. They weren't "bickering", they were trying to get on the same page...I love how anytime TO and his QB have a conversation on the sidelines, it's "bickering".
September 20, 201015 yr Didn't get to watch ESPN this morning, and my commute to work is very short now that I moved so I don't listen to Mike and Mike anymore. What was said? Ray was complaining about the tripping call and the late hit on the QB call. Basically, he was saying that QB's are babies that make all the money and are afraid to get hit. It's a "war" and they need to quit crying. Golic simply stated that it was the league that implemented and enforces the rules and not a bunch of QB's whining about being hit.

It's a "war" and they need to quit crying. Golic simply stated that it was the league that implemented and enforces the rules and not a bunch of QB's whining about being hit. I was at the game, and saw it on replay. It's a rule that he violated. Being blocked does not cause you to whip your legs around while spinning on the ground. It doesn't matter if it was intentional (although there no doubt in my mind that it was). If an O lineman did it on a block to a DL it would've been called. There's not a QB in the league that whines as much as Lewis, he seems to complain about every call. He needs to realize that when the Ravens constantly make late hits, often away from the ball, or impose their "toughness" with borderline unsportsmanlike conduct hits, calls will go against them through the course of a game. I think Suggs' roughing call on CP was wrong; however, I watched him taking some cheap shots all day, and I think it caught up with him.
September 20, 201015 yr They were both horrible calls, period. I dislike Baltimore more than any other team in the NFL, but he was right.
September 20, 201015 yr The tripping and late hit calls were both bad calls but you also need to factor in that TO may have been a victim of PI in the endzone and nothing was called there.
September 20, 201015 yr They were both horrible calls, period. I dislike Baltimore more than any other team in the NFL, but he was right. So Crash, are you suggesting that tripping should never be called or it was a bad call because Lewis didn't mean to do it? Watch the replay, Lewis had one leg in the air, and the other foot was extended with his toe out; it was intentional. It doesn't matter that Lewis didn't know where the QB was or if it was intentional or not, it directly led to the 'tackle'.
September 20, 201015 yr I like everything about Ray, love his attitude and the intensity he plays with... I was at the game, and they were both terrible calls.
September 20, 201015 yr Whether the trip on Ray Lewis was intentional or not, you gotta call it. I'm sure lineup never intentionally go offsides or have a false start. As for the late hit, bad call, but as others have mentioned so was the no-call on the pass interference in the endzone.
September 20, 201015 yr I HATE every other team in the AFC North(see my name), but those calls were terrible. If they were called on the Bengals then everyone would be going crazy. I'm glad they went our way though.
September 20, 201015 yr Go to Bengals.com to watch the highlights. Both were horrible calls. Lewis did not whip his leg. Not even close.
September 20, 201015 yr It's always interesting to sit in a seat like that. You see the game a whole different way. Kinda stinks when they are at the other end though. That's right. Wound up watching the big TV screen when they were at the other end.
