Chiefs Harbaugh glad Ravens broke Rapelessburgers nose

I would be surprised if he isn't fined for these comments:

John Harbaugh: I’m glad Ravens broke Ben Roethlisberger’s nose
Posted by Michael David Smith on January 10, 2011, 7:24 PM EST

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.

Well at least he didn't get stabbed to death.

He better be glad Ray didn't smell the blood or else Big Rape would have to be playing with about 2 dozen holes in him as well

This will be the game 'o the week, no question.

The smack is even stronger than usual.

This will be the most violent football game of the year. And that's saying something... it's amazing the bloodbath these two always get into. There will be concussions and head trauma.

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.

**Dylan** · 01-10-2011, 10:55 PM

BANG -- And down goes Flacco!

Says the comment was made jokingly.

the refs are gonna ruin this game.

**Iowanian** · 01-11-2011, 08:36 AM

The good news for Baltimore and their low rent, cheap shotting thugs, is that Pittsburg ALSO has some linebackers who like to blitz, hit like trains and don't mind hurting someone.

I dislike Pitt a great deal, but compared to the Ravens.......I hope they pluck the legs and wings off of every one of those purple grasshoppers and burn them with magnifying glasses after the game.
