Funny as heck these refs come out like they are the stars of the game - tipping their hats and taking bows ...

IMO they already blew one call! That sure looked like roughing the passer - lewis took a full step maybe another half after the pass had been thrown and laid weeden out!

it sure looked that way for a few min, didn't it...?? Glad he got up and walked off smiling. Hope he's really okay

Yeah, being me, we all should know by now that I was joking....about him being dead....which is kinda lame of me to joke about a player dying but that's how I roll. No apologies. Silly_Emote.gif

He sure did look stone cold asleep, quite comfortably I might add. What a warrior though, he had himself picked up and was laughing by the time they came back from commercial. Looking into his eyes you could tell he was kinda embarrassed about it. While he was napping, he had 80,000 people starring at him and most of the players taking a knee, standing vigil over his motionless, corpse-like repose.

I'm hoping the best for him. Looks like a concussion and I don't believe he's ever had any in the NFL.

For those whom missed it;

I wouldn't say he's hated. He's just an average qb, who the media likes to hype up as something more.

And by average, I mean he falls in that qb ranking of #17-15.

I'll just say that I think he's way better than he's rated. The guy has had inept receivers throughout.

Wasn't it helmet to helmet? What was the flag on the field / screen for? When they came back from break that was cleaned up / gone.

Sure looked like it to me. Here's an article about it:

http://content.usatoday.com/communities/gameon/post/2012/09/27/josh-cribbs-hit/70001307/1?csp=34sports

"They did flag two players after a post-play skirmish: Ravens safety James Ihedigbo and the Browns' Johnson Bademosi for personal fouls."

I went to bed at half, so I didn't see Weeden mount a comeback attempt.

But from what I saw in the first half, this guy is bad. Like worse than Blaine Gabbert bad!

I was thinking the same thing after the first half... but I actually stuck around to the end of the game and Weeden made some good throws when it counted (including a beautiful pass to the end zone that Little dropped, forcing the Browns to settle for 3). If he were a young guy, I think Browns fans would have reason to feel optimistic about their long-term prospects with him behind center. However, because he's 29 and looks less pro ready than two of his fellow rookies (and several of the rookies last season) I seriously doubt his career will last long enough to have a prime.

He did look better than year one Gabbert, though.

It was a nasty hit but Ellerbes intent did not look to be helmet to helmet and from what I can tell was not a helmet to helmet anyway from the replays and angles of the replays it was a shoulder to helmet hit caused by Cribbs leaning down while Cox had his lower legs wrapped up (Ellerbe looked to be going for the ball in my opinion, also did you see how Ellerbe reacted as Cribbs was being tended to? Also, I am not saying anyone in particular but many seem to react to a violent helmet to helmet hit like they are all intentional which many ARE NOT, Helmets are big they are going to collide many times do to bodies colliding together at a high rate of speed
