During the second quarter of today's Ravens-Titans divisional playoff game, Baltimore linebacker Ray Lewis delivered a brutal hit to Tennessee fullback Ahmard Hall:
But while Lewis deserves plenty of credit for the hit, Hall deserves even more for picking up the first down, even though he did fumble the ball out of bounds while his helmet went flying. It was third-and-10 from the Titans' 1-yard line, and Hall picking up a first down there was one of the toughest plays of this tough game, which is currently tied 10-10 with four minutes to play.
UPDATE: And yes, I do realize he fumbled the ball. But he fumbled out of bounds, and not until after he got the first down. That's what I was giving him credit for, although obviously my initial headline was wrong.
