Awww man, here we go! Baltimore Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs thinks he knows who was behind the Super Bowl blackout and he’s pointing his finger at the commish. Yikes. Report after the jump…
Via ESPN:
Terrell Suggs accuses NFL commissioner Roger Goodell of having a role in the Super Bowl blackout during an interview on ESPN’s “E:60” that will air Tuesday.
“I was like Vegas, parlor tricks, you know what I mean?” Suggs said. “I was like, ahh, Roger Goodell, he never stops, he always has something up his sleeve. He just couldn’t let us have this one in a landslide, huh?”
The lights went out early in the third quarter of February’s Super Bowl between the Ravens and San Francisco 49ers, shortly after Jacoby Jones’ 108-yard kickoff return gave Baltimore a 28-6 lead. The unprecedented Super Bowl moment delayed the game for 34 minutes. San Francisco then scored 17 unanswered points once the game resumed, and the Ravens needed a late fourth-quarter stand in the red zone to prevail.
ESPN NFL commentator Ray Lewis brought up a conspiracy theory recently, but Suggs pointed the finger directly at Goodell.
“I thought he had a hand in it,” Suggs said. “Most definitely, he had a hand in it.”
Suggs said he believes Goodell favors some teams over others.
