"A day after saying that the Ravens defense is still the "big brother" of the team, free safety Ed Reed called out Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco after Flacco completed 14 of 27 passes for 176 yards and two touchdowns and was on the receiving end of five sacks in Sunday's 20-13 win over the Houston Texans in the AFC divisional round.

In a Monday interview with SiriusXM satellite radio, Reed said Flacco "was kind of rattled a little bit" Sunday.

"They had a lot of guys in the box on him and they were giving it to him. I think a couple of times he needed to get rid of the ball. It just didn't look like he had a hold on the offense," Reed said. "I don't know how much of [that was] the play calling … but it just didn't look like he had a hold on the offense, you know, of times past."
