Though Broderick Jones, Zach Frazier, and Mason McCormick were just kids at the height of the Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens rivalry a decade ago, they brought an old-school flair to Week 11\u2019s win. Turning back the clock, those three players went after the Ravens to the point where football became secondary. Setting the tone was primary. CB Marlon Humphrey was one of their targets, and he reflected on how intense that game got.<\/p>\n \u201cI had to pray against the Steelers,\u201d Humphrey said on his popular Punch Line with Marlon Humphrey<\/a> podcast Thursday. \u201cBecause I was finna crash out. I could not control myself. I could not control myself.\u201d<\/p>\n For those above a certain age, \u201ccrash out\u201d means<\/a> to emotionally do something stupid. That saves anyone who goes to bed before 10 PM a Google search.<\/p>\n Tempers flared in the first half and Humphrey found himself primarily mixing it up with Frazier and Jones. Punching above his weight class, Frazier first went after him early in the game. Jones buried him the next.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s a cut-up of the fun. Flags were thrown on Jones and Humphrey for their skirmish.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve never had contact with that many o-linemen in my life,\u201d Humphrey said on his show. \u201cNot gonna lie.\u201d<\/p>\n Despite all the festivities, only two players came away with fines from this game. Neither Humphrey nor any of the Steelers\u2019 o-linemen had lighter wallets. Instead, Ravens S Kyle Hamilton and Steelers S Minkah Fitzpatrick<\/a> were tagged for taunting and unnecessary roughness, respectively. Hamilton jawed with a Steeler after one play while Fitzpatrick shoved OG Patrick Mekari off the pile following LB Patrick Queen\u2019s forced fumble\/recovery.<\/p>\n Hamilton made a quip about the outcome.<\/p>\n \u201cAnd I got fined,\u201d Hamilton said. \u201cWild.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYou a dirty player though,\u201d Humphrey responded sarcastically.<\/p>\n Even from a Steelers\u2019 perspective, Hamilton has a point. Perhaps there was something he said, though it didn\u2019t rise to a penalty, but his actions didn\u2019t appear fine-worthy. A fine for Humphrey or the linemen would\u2019ve made far more sense.<\/p>\n Credit to Humphrey for being willing to rumble with the Steelers\u2019 big uglies. Pittsburgh\u2019s front-five embraced the culture and what this game means. They were an intense bunch in another close victory. Round Two will take place in Week 16. Officials may be quicker to calm things down knowing what\u2019s already taken place.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
