John Harbaugh: I’m glad Ravens broke Ben Roethlisberger’s nose

Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger was left with a broken nose when Ravens defensive tackle Haloti Ngata drilled him last month. The NFL fined Ngata $15,000, but Ravens coach John Harbaugh doesn’t think his team should feel any remorse.
“He’s a tough guy,” Harbaugh said of Roethlisberger. “He had the broken nose. I was glad we broke his nose and then I was very impressed that he played through it. Obviously, you can throw very effectively with a broken nose – he proved that.”
Harbaugh says he expects his players to go after Roethlisberger on Saturday the same way they did in December.
“[W]e’re going to try to get after him like we always do,” Harbaugh said. “It’s going to be real important, and he knows that. That’s a key to stopping him. You’ve got to get him down.”
And if the Ravens take Roethlisberger down too hard, Harbaugh is OK with that.

Doesn't sound like something Harbs would say; do you have a link to the original article?
It is a questionable comment to make if it's true ... but given the nature of our rivalry, it's no big deal. We've said much worse to each other.
