Ed Reed Ready To Go Week 7

From everything I am reading it sounds like the Ravens defense is going to be getting a lot better week 7.

"I think he'll be ready to go," Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said. "Obviously, you never know until the guy gets out there and starting practicing. But based on the way he's moving around now, I don't see any way he won't be ready to go."

Ed Reed is still one of the best safeties in the league, and with the Ravens already starting to play at a high level this team is going to be scary going down the stretch. Steelers vs. Ravens is something everyone is going to be talking about the rest of the year, because they are by far the best two teams in that division.

At leas the Patriots won't have to deal with him this week.

Ed Reed Goes Off On Ravens

Ed Reed is going to miss at least the first 6 weeks of the NFL season due to injury, but the story doesn't end there. Ed Reed is not happy with his current contract, and he is voicing his displeasure to the media...

"I haven't had the support from the other side as you think has been there," Reed said. "If I don't say it now, it won't ever get said. It's like a marriage. There are going to be disagreements.

"You got to work with that person. When it starts to get too much, you got to pull back: 'Is it worth it? or should I take a pay cut and be on another team?"

The word I got was, 'We're comfortable with where we're at,'" Reed said. "Yes, you would be comfortable with the plays that I'm making on the field and paying me what you're paying me. ... There are six, seven players in front of me at my position [in terms of money] that I honestly wouldn't let hold my jock, and I don't even wear one.'"

Yea, cool Ed Reed, but you're also 32 and hurt. On top of that you have 3 years left on your deal. There is no reason the Ravens should give him another penny. Yes, he has done a ton for this organization, but it is also a business, and he signed that contract. Also, what a terrible time to go off about this. Reed might miss the entire season and he is going to sit there and yell at the Ravens about how much he is making???

That deserves a big C'MON MAN!
