Postgame notebook: Reed does
it again

Ed Reed
At some point, after seeing
him make big play after big play, you run out of
things to say about Ed Reed.
There aren't enough adjectives to describe the safety's
talent and his ability to change a game at any time.
Simply put -- the guy just makes plays.
He made a couple big ones Sunday against the Jaguars.
Reed brought in two interceptions, his eighth and ninth
of the season, tops in the NFL. The first pick set up a
Le'Ron McClain touchdown that vaulted Baltimore to a
24-7 halftime lead.
It was Reed's fourth multiple-INT game of the season
and the eighth of his career. Back when he won the
league's Defensive Player of the Year award in 2004,
Reed had nine picks and two touchdowns. This season,
the five-time Pro Bowler has nine picks and two
touchdowns.
Could some more hardware be on the way? Maybe.
But please, someone teach the man to hang onto the ball
after he comes down with an INT.
