Huddle Up: Ravens better than ever?
An abbreviated look at what’s going on around the NFL on Wednesday, Sept. 14:
• After watching Baltimore dismantle Pittsburgh, 34-7 on Sunday, Brian Billick believes that this "might be the best Ravens team ever."
• Believe it or not, the Giants finally received some positive news on the injury front: Osi Umenyiora was back working out, while WR Hakeem Nicks and rookie corner Prince Amukamara both spent time jogging at practice.
• Chiefs coach Todd Haley says that Lions wide receiver Calvin Johnson is trending toward being an all-time great at his position.
• If not for Chad Henne's 59 yards rushing Monday, the Dolphins would have turned in an embarrassing rushing total, which begs the question: Can Miami run the ball anymore?
• Cowboys defensive end Marcus Spears isn't ready to hit the panic button after Dallas' Week 1 meltdown against the Jets. Spears says the Cowboys will "be fine."
• Josh Freeman is preaching a similar sermon to Spears' in Tampa, saying that everyone's quick to develop a "Chicken Little complex" after a Week 1 loss.
