Apologize to the league for his players behavior on TV,even though he couldn't stop Bart Scott from doing what he did:crazy: .. I also think Steve Bisciotti should address the team and have a serious talk with the players...He's the owner and it's his money....I also think Steve SHOULD pull the plug on the player shows on the radio stations:( What were they thinking when they allowed that?!?!?!?:insane:

Are you serious? The league should apoligize to the Ravens for the terrible officiating, and they probably will, but of course it will be off the record.
And if Billick couldn't stop Bart Scott from doing what he did, which you just wrote yourself, then why should Billick apolgize?

Bullshit
Coach Billick shouldn't say he is sorry for one damm thing. The Pats player should have had a flag thrown on him for even going over to Billick. If any Ravens player went to the Past bench a flag would have been thrown. That is for sure.
The Ref's screwed up the entire game. First the time out should not have been aloud near the end of the game. The NFL has the worst system of refs in professional sports.
I stand behind Coach Billick with this issue.

huh? That is absurd. I think Merriman and Harrison should apologize to the league for steroid use. I think the Ursay family should apologize to the fans of Baltimore, I think Mrs. Foy should apologize to me for the D she gave me in 6th grade math... WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!?!?!

Actually, they were.....I don't remember who it was but one of the DB's went past Belichick and the Pats' sideline in the 1st quarter saying something to everyone on the sideline! They showed it on TV as the Ravens made one of their stops and there was no flag thrown.....

While I don't agree with Billick apologizing to the league I think it might not be a bad idea for SB to have a little come to Jesus meeting with the team and tell them to stop this shit. He should also "suggest" to Billick that he "tighten the reins" a bit IMO. He's trying to clean up the image of the team and performances like Scott's don't help. He looked like an absolute moron out there.

he ought to apologize to his players for screwing the game up in the 4th qtr...they outlplayed the Pats and got handcuffed by his wimpy play calling and Rex Ryan's TO...the coaches blew this game in a big way.
I am not saying the players didn't make mistakes...but to me it was more Billick and Ryan playing scared and not trusting the players enough.

Bisciotti's approach should be this: "Do you want your kids/wife/loved ones to see you act like this on national TV? I didn't think so! So when you feel like acting like an asshole and embarrassing yourself, your team, and your loved one's, save it for after the game!"

Are you sure that this is the message you want the owner to send?

YES....and if we could fine them, all the better!!! Why is this type of behavior OK to you? If someone you work with picked up something and threw it against the wall because they were upset and mad at what someone said to them, what would you think? Bart Scott looked like an asshole on Monday Night Football and turned an impressive performance by himself and his teammates into a joke by his actions on the field!!!! Who gives a shit what the ref was saying, if he said anything at all. You wouldn't accept that behavior in public and if I was his wife I chew his ass out for acting like a 3-year old in front of his kid!! He should be ashamed of himself and, even though I didn't listen to his show, he should have apologized to everyone for his behavior!!!

I don't want anyone suggesting to this bunch to save their misbehavior for off the field - we are still living down some of their off field capers from the past. I think I'd like to see the coaches pull offending players off the field immediately and let them sit it out until they cool off and regain their common sense and composure. I realize that wouldn't have worked the other night because the game was essentially over when Scott and Rolle went off. Maybe fines for conduct detrimental to the team could be imposed I don't know. It will be hard to rein this bunch in because they have been borderline thugs for a long time.

I could be wrong about this, but I think that although Rolle was the target of this official's trash-talk, he actually remained pretty composed. Scott was the one who had a meltdown.
I agree that players having these on-field fits should be disciplined in some manner, but the circumstances of this game seem a little unique to me.

Rolle wsn't an out of control moron like Scott but he was doing a lot of jawing at the refs. While I understand and agree with his taking offense at what the official said we don't know at this point what, if anything, Rolle might have said that contributed to what happened. I just wish these guys could learn to play the game and shut the hell up!

I disagree with the characterization 'thugs' but otherwise for once I agree with crpravens.
We have some huge personalities on this team. Not a lot, but a few, and they ain't changing, and nobody is telling them what to say or how to act.
Is that a fatal flaw? I doubt it. But it's the truth.

And that is what is making this debate so weary -- we weren't on the field and don't know who started what. Okay, Rolle might have been jawing at an official, but how do we know that Rolle was the one who started it? If the official was yelling at him to "shut up boy" repeatedly, no wonder Rolle was jawing back at him.
But putting this game aside, because it was a little weird, I agree in general that there are players on this team that do way too much yapping. I am particularly tired of Ogden's sideline tantrums. I think he just started doing this a year or two ago but now it's become a habit.

I am always critical of the "chest thumping" , I hate to see the contrived end zone celebrations. But I was SOOOO fed up with the officiating in the game, that I quite enjoyed the "flag Toss"... sorry, but after being screwed out of a game.... it was last good thing to happen in the game!:rolleyes:

No doubt the flag tossing just made me cool off and take a couple more shots. It was funny as hell. I was'nt mad at all after the game. STOP don't even think about questioning my fanhood. BUT really for me, I wanted the win as like you. But to see our mighty Ravens play a great game for 58 mins. I was pleased with the fight and heart that we played with against a good team at home,night game, in the blks unis.
I was glad to finally see a good outing by the ravens this year,almost complete but meltdown in final in 2.

If jawing at the officials was so heinous of a crime then why in the hell was Tom Brady allowed to do it for the entire first half of the game?

:iagree: Ya know something RAVENOUS?? I agree with you here...Now that I think about it, Brady did jaw with the refs quite a bit...He and Moss both criticized the officiating:eyes: Did they get fined too? I just thought that if we(Brian Billick) fess up and give an apology in a press conference, the league officials may be a little more lenient in future games with our team...just thinking:nerd:
