The continuing saga of who cheap shot who continues today with Ed Reed’s claim that Hines Warm “tried to cheap shot” him. “I moved out the way, but he came at me with his head first, [with] the crown of the helmet,” Reed said in a quote from BaltimoreRavens.com.
Ed Reed spoke out to the media after publicly supporting his team mates Jameel McClain and Haloti Ngata who were fined $40,000 and $15,000 respectively. Reed said that he hopes that offensive players are held to the same standard as defensive.
“[McClain] wasn’t trying to hurt the guy, Reed said. “He’s just playing football. [Ward] was trying to hurt me. He was trying to take me out the game.”
Ward was recently listed third dirtiest player in the NFL in a poll of 100 active players, he finished behind team mate James Harrison and Cortland Finnegan.
Reed didn’t have much faith that the NFL would do anything about Ward’s hit. “What are they going to do about that? They’re not going to do anything about that.”
I wasn’t able to see the play that Reed was talking about from the proper angle, but Mike Duffy of BaltimoreRavens.com claims that “the action could have been accidental,” although Ward’s reputation precedes him.
Do you think Ward was trying to cheap shot Ed Reed?
"I wasn’t able to see the play that Reed was talking about from the proper angle".

Of course I think Hines Ward tried to cheap shot Ed Reed. It isn't like he hasn't done it in the past. Then again I am a biased Ravens fan who hates Hines Ward. This quote by Reed is nothing more than a conversation starter, but he does bring up a good point…. Should Offensive Players be under the same scrutiny for leading with their helmets and hands to the face?
I don't have access to game films.
Of course, Hines Wart is out there trying to injure unsuspecting players, while everyone else is playing football. He is simply the DIRTIEST player in football, and one of these days he's going to get what is coming his way……CAREER ENDING INJURY!!!!….and no one would feel sorry for him.
All he does is blindside people and try to injure them…..away from the play. I have absolutely no respect for that.
You ever notice that assclowns like "worst_article_ever" run their mouths but won't pony up their name? Because they have to hide. They are the one's who rat on someone in class or at work. Then they go run and hide. He's the kid who tells mommy that his brother got a bigger slice of bread…
