SupaBran Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 Most Ravens fans are man enough to commend the Bengals on a good, tough, hard fought game...but there are some including the dip-s**t John Harbaugh(if that's how u spell it, i really don't give a damn) bitching about that roughing call. I get it. It was a bad call, but if I recall it was on 1st down and we were already in Nugent's range so I don't get the bitching like that would of changed the outcome of the game. And we still proceeded to intercept Flacco the next drive and get another field so quit bitching and man up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we still proceeded to intercept Flacco the next drive and get another field so quit bitching and man up!In two games the ravens have had manyh calls go their way that lead to points. I didn't see ray complaining about his kickers leg falling on jets edwards, getting a roughing call then that leading to a td which was the difference in that gvame. Didn't hear a peep. Oh and the leg whip was a penalty imo. Ray knew where he was and where the qb was. But of course wqhen it suits him he will complain.So I assume he will get fined by league for mourthing off again? Chad got 25 grand for tweeting. Publiically disrespecting the refs again should have a stiff pena?ty. Wow am I getting sick of rays talking.

ArmyBengal Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 Ray is being a bit overblown on this one. In all seriousness, I give the guy a ton of credit because every year people say he's slowing down and he keeps coming back and making plays. Sure he may be slower than he was, but he's still a force in the middle of that defense. I simply don't see how he can be so upset when there are so many times things go his way on bad calls. Do you see him on tv saying they shouldn't have won the game because the refs made a bad call when it goes in their favor ?? No.I'm not going to tell him to man up, but I think he could be more professional in a loss.Lets not forget Flacco threw 4 INT's and his rating was freakin' 23.8. Lets not forget the Ravens only had 109 total yards rushing against a defense many didn't think sh*t of after week #1. Not one of their receivers had more than 35 yards receiving. I simply think it was a hard fought game that the Bengals fought a little harder to win than the Ravens did.I suggest Ray go have a conversation with his team and stop talking to the media.He comes off like a real b*tch regardless of whether you agree with the call or not.It wasn't the be all and end all of the game.

Wraith Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 Sure the Roughing the passer call was completely silly but we had a no call ib Pass Interference on TO in the end zone that was just as bad and that one probably cost us a TD.Can't blame the game on the refs, we here that too often from the Ravens, fix your offense, your passing game should be better than that!

ArmyBengal Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 There were so many holding calls that didn't go the Bengals way in that game it was just silly as well.All that garbage equals itself out for the most part.Amazing how, "One play doesn't make or break a game" doesn't figure in here.

membengal Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 Yes, Lewis' crying about the refs is kinda comical. I lost count of how many times a Bengals lineman was pulled down and no holding called. Or that non-call in the end zone where Owens was clearly interfered with. Etc. Bad calls happen. Both ways. Ravens didn't lose because of bad calls. They lost because they turned the ball over four times, and because, at the biggest juncture in the game, they let Bernard Scott go 60 yards on a kickoff return to get the Bengals offense close enough to limp to a field goal, and because Chris Crocker made a game-saving open field tackle of Rice to keep that from being a TD and holding Baltimore to a go-ahead field goal.Etc.The Ravens lost because the Bengals were better. Again.So far this morning, a lot of anger locally toward Flacco and the offensive approach of Baltimore. It is dawning on the fanbase that Rice ran it just 16 times, for 87 yards. Seems to the locals like some more of that many have been in order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC_Bengals_Fan Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 and because Chris Crocker made a game-saving open field tackle of Rice to keep that from being a TD and holding Baltimore to a go-ahead field goal.Thanks for mentioning that - hasn't Mr. Crocker been having an excellent season so far? He had that game-saving tackle. I believe he had a key solo pass defended against Moss early in the first quarter against NE (ie, when anybody still cared). And he's made a few other nice plays beyond those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
membengal Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 About to go on 105.7 as "Ron" from Hamilton as a concerned Ravens fan about the focus being on the whining over the officiating. I suspect a point is about to be made about bad calls every way... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
membengal Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 "Ron" from Hamilton just went on the air and took the fanbase to task for focusing on those two bad calls when that game was lost for Baltimore elsewhere. If you all check the podcast, I was on at 15 minute or so mark of the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cincyhokie Posted September 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 Listening to Viviano and the Bulldog from 9-12. Bulldog whining and moaning about the officiating. Viviano stating that the Ravens should focus on what they can control...things like not throwing 4 interceptions and bad QB play. Bulldog ingnoring him for the most part and taking calls about...the bad officiating.I'll tune in at 12-2 for Bruce Cunningham and Zinno.I was listening to Bruce and Zinno on Friday afternoon. They were interviewing Joe Reedy. I had to break the news to Zinno that Joe Reedy is a POS Steelers fan. Hopefully, they'll just stick to interviewing Brad Johansen.

membengal Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 "Ron" from Hamilton at the 9:15 mark succeeded in turning the focus away from the officials.I must say, that call kicked ass. "Ron" was on fire.The remainder of the show involved a prolonged grilling for Joe Flacco. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm fairly confident he's a Steelers fan. No big deal because alot of media cover teams that they're not fans of. The problem I have with Reedy is that he's overly negative and frequently assumes things and usually is wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
