Texans just Cut Ed Reed

[nunusguy]

BALTIMORE - Ed Reed now is 0-2 against his former team in Baltimore this season, losing to the Ravens both as a Texan and a Jet, and he didn't see his team score a touchdown in those games.
In a 19-3 loss, the future Hall of Fame safety played a central role in the game's only touchdown.
Leading 12-3 in the final seconds of the third quarter, the Ravens, knowing they were about to lose the wind at their back for the duration of the game, went deep.
The Jets expected that, playing a "quarters" defense designed to guard against a long ball.
Somehow, Joe Flacco was able to find Jacoby Jones for a 66-yard scoring pass, even with cornerback Dee Milliner and Reed in the immediate vicinity.
Jets coach Rex Ryan said "that one's kind of a 'Ripley's Believe It or Not.' "
It appeared Reed was unable to locate the ball in the air, but Ryan said, "I'm not going to pin it on any one individual. Certainly not on one guy. Certainly not Ed Reed. He'd probably be third on that list, in all honesty."
Said Reed: "I never really saw the ball. I should have played it different. I probably should have just grabbed Jacoby and took the pass interference instead, given the position I was in."
Reed, like the coaches, said he knew what was coming.
"I mean, they had the wind; it's just that simple," he said. "It was like, here comes a shot . . . What would you do? I tell one of the fastest guys to just run deep and locate the ball, and that's what he did."

Coach Reed was the big winner this year in the "Ed Reed Sweepstakes", the Texans the big losers and the Jets a much lesser loser. But check out the link here as Eds got another photo shoot shaking hands with his x-Ravens teammates in another losing effort. Gotta love Ed though, he's got a hustle that's tough to deny, just ask Bob Mcnair if you don't believe me.
