Michael Crabtree rips 'childish' Aqib Talib after chain-snatching incident

During the Oakland Raiders’ loss to the Denver Broncos on Sunday, Aqib Talib and Michael Crabtree got into a bit of a scuffle. The jostling ended with Talib ripping off Crabtree’s chain, snapping it in half.

That made what was an already bad day for the Raiders even worse, and Crabtree obviously took exception to the move. He talked about it after the game, blasting Talib for being “childish.”

"Acting," Crabtree said after calling Talib “fake,” via ESPN. "You aren't defending anybody up like that. You hard? You tough? You snatch a chain in front of the police and run off? Childish, man."

"He's just been wearing that chain all year, man, it's just been growing on me," Talib said. "I said if he wears that chain in front of me, I'm going to snatch it off. So he wore it in front of me, so I had to snatch it off."

"Disrespectful," Crabtree said. "They were acting like I was the problem. That's what I didn't like. I'm not even that type of dude. I play football ... I could have cut [blocked] him; I could have hurt him. But I don't like that."
