Cribbs was taken to a hospital after he was flattened on a last, meaningless play in Baltimore's 16-0 win over the Browns. Mangini called it a "competitive situation" and said Cribbs improvised on the pass play by lateraling the ball before being hit by Ravens defensive end Dwan Edwards (FSY).

Mangini said Cribbs did not sustain a concussion. He's optimistic that his best playmaker will be available for Sunday's game in Detroit.

Mangini would not say if he thought Edwards' hit was dirty.

He did defend Browns quarterback Brady Quinn's (FSY) questionable chop block on Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs (FSY) following an interception.

Mangini said he believed Quinn's assertion that he was going after cornerback Chris Carr (FSY), who made the pick in the third quarter. Quinn was penalized 15 yards for a low block and could face a league fine.

Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis (FSY) accused Quinn of a cheap shot.
