Bernard Pollard slaps the Patriots in the face
Patriot killer Bernard Pollard is a complete D-bag. I think you guys already know that. Late in the first half and deep in the red zone Brady took off for a couple of yards then slid like he normally does. This time his cleats were up and he took out Ed Reed in the process(no injury). After the game Pollard went out of his way to give his opinion on the situation.
"He knew what he was doing. It has to go both ways. Hopefully the NFL will do something about it. If you want to keep this going in the right direction, everyone should be penalized for their actions."I don't know why there isn't more talk about what Pollard said. It isn't a huge storyline but it has to strike a nerve for Patriots fans. Even if the Ridley hit did not happen Patriots fans should be mad about this because of all of his other "Patriot kills." But the thing is, the Ridley hit did happen! which makes this even worse! Come on man!! You lead with your head the entire game, knock the living shit out of Stevan Ridley with a thug-like illegal hit, and you say Brady should be fined for his little slide!
I swear Pollard says this not because he actually cares if Brady gets fined, but to amplify his hit on Ridley. I hope Brady took out Reed on purpose, giving the Ravens a taste of their own thug medicine. But I highly doubt Brady did it on purpose. If Reed collides with Brady's leg head on, that could really screw up his knee. What do you think? Talk with me on twitter @joeloobs
