Rosburg: No advice for Reed
Ravens special teams coordinator Jerry Rosburg was as amazed as everyone else that Mitch Berger's second punt of the game got past rushing Ed Reed last week. Reed came from the outside and was in the air when Berger seemingly launched the punt UNDERNEATH Reed.
"I'm not exactly sure where it went," Rosburg said this week. "I think Harbs [John Harbaugh] said it well: 'We think the ball actually vaporized and went through his body and came out the other side, because we can't see any space in there.' But it got past him some way or another. We still haven't figured it out yet."
Asked about Reed's technique blocking punts, Rosburg offered this assessment: "I coached against Ed for a long time at another club [the Browns] where he was rushing our edge, and I don't do a whole lot of coaching of Ed at that particular point in time. I've seen him get his hands on a lot of footballs. I'll let Ed coach himself on that. He'll figure it out, I'm confident."

On the replay on television, the ball actually went right between his outstretched arms.
