In the wake of Cleveland Browns wide receiver Joshua Cribbs getting hurt on the final play of a 16-0 shutout loss to the Baltimore Ravens, the play call is drawing some criticism.

Cribbs got forearmed in the chin by Ravens defensive end Dwan Edwards and was carted off the field and taken to the hospital to be tested for concussion symptoms before being released early this morning.

Although Cribbs is doing well, his involvement in a hook-and-ladder play with the game out of reach is being questioned.

"I can't even put into words how upset I am at them for leaving him in like that,' agent J.R. Rickert told the Cleveland Plain Dealer in a text message. "Fortunately, he's doing well.'

Ravens veteran defensive end Trevor Pryce ripped the play call.

"Running a play like that when you're down 16 -- what are you trying to prove?' Pryce said. "I don't understand it. I don't want to say something like that, but heck, it's the truth. Bad things happen when you do something like that.

"When people are running around like crazy, somebody's going to get hurt. Dwan hit him because he had the ball. He didn't try to hurt him. We prayed for Josh. I hope he's OK. He's a great player.'

Edwards denied a suggestion that he was seeking revenge after quarerback Brady Quinn’s low block on outside linebacker Terrell Suggs. Suggs left the game with a sprained knee and may be out several weeks.

“It wasn’t retribution,” Edwards said. “I’m definitely not a dirty player. It wasn’t a cheap shot. I’m just playing football.”
