I don't know enough about the situation. I know he got the suspension for repeat offenses, but that's about as much as I know about it.

Ed Reed is one of the game's classiest, cleanest players so it's hard not to think there is some sort of example being made of him

Well Reed didn't launch himself into the wr at all. The ball was thrown behind the wr, the wr had sort of ducked down a bit and Reed hit the guy. The guys on ESPN were killing the league/ Ray Anderson over it and it was well deserved. Anderson was on Mike and Mike and seemed to be awfully arrogant about it.

Break down and wrap up -- problem solved. Reed's technique on that play was tuck arms and lead with head. I side with the NFL on this one.
