Crabtree, Talib trade verbal jabs after chain broken during on-field skirmish

Oakland Raiders wide receiver Michael Crabtree ripped into Denver Broncos cornerback Aqib Talib following their confrontation during Sunday's game, and didn't spare the officials for the way they treated him either.

Talib ripped Crabtree's gold chain from his neck, but no flag was called and the veteran cornerback was seen boasting about it on the sidelines.

Crabtree called Talib "fake" after the game and said he made a "business decision" to not react to him.

"You hard? You tough? You snatch a chain in front of the police and run off?" Crabtree said of Talib, according to ESPN's Paul Gutierrez. "I could have cut (blocked) him. I could have hurt him."

Talib revealed Crabtree's chain had been bugging him all year, and said he vowed before the game to rip it off the receiver.

"He just been wearing that chain all year, it just been growing on me," said Talib, according to Cameron Wolfe of The Denver Post. "I said if he wear that chain in front of me, I'm going to snatch it off. He wore it in front of me, so I had to snatch it off. He started crying to the ref. He didn't saying nothing to me though."

Crabtree appeared equally frustrated by the inaction of the officials, accusing them of being "disrespectful" and "talking to me like I'm a criminal."
