PRO FOOTBALL DAILY REPORT : RAIDERS
- Share via
Seahawk Coach Tom Flores didn’t like the way the Raiders treated his quarterback.
A television replay showed that Raider linebacker Winston Moss punched Rick Mirer in the chin several times as the quarterback lay on the ground after being tackled by Moss in the second quarter. Moss was not penalized.
“That’s uncalled for,” Flores said Monday. “There’s no place for that in professional football.”
The incident touched off a free-for-all that brought the ejections of Raider defensive linemen Chester McGlockton and Aundray Bruce and Seahawk offensive tackle Ray Roberts.
Flores defended Roberts, who pushed Moss off Mirer.
“I’m not sure there isn’t anybody (on the Seahawks) who wouldn’t do the same thing,” Flores said.
