As if it weren't bad enough that the Bengals fell to 0-7 with a 28-point loss at home against Pittsburgh, Marvin Lewis says Keith Rivers suffered a broken jaw during the first quarter and will miss the rest of the season.
If you watched the game, you know exactly what happened. Rivers got his clock absolutely cleaned on a blind-side hit by Hines Ward. The link above is to ESPN, and it includes a couple of quotes from Brandon Johnson and Chinedum Ndukwe where they explain exactly how they feel about Ward' hit. Ndukwe even suggests there may be revenge sought. Bengals.com's version has a longer quote from Ward (defending himself and why he shouldn't be fined) in addition to a quote from Chad.
The DDN's Tom Archdeacon wrote a column about the play with quotes from Ward. Also, here's a little analysis (from what appears to be a Steelers fan with a blog) with YouTube video of the hit and some speculation as to whether Ward will be fined. You may recall he was fined $15K by the league just last week for two separate infractions, which aroused the ire of Mike Tomlin and Troy Polamalu, among others.
