FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Steve Smith Sr. Smith was in rare form in making a concerted effort to remain positive following a frustrating 30-23 loss to the New England Patriots on Monday Night Football.
He flashed a wide smile, referenced fish sticks and surprisingly quoted a Disney movie.
"A great philosopher -- Thumper's Mom in Bambi said if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all," Smith said. "I'm trying to do that."
The Ravens managed 348 yards on offense, but it was a struggle for most of Monday night.
