WATCH: Michael Crabtree and Aqib Talib ejected after nasty fight

Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports

What do you get when you get two underachieving, frustrated rivals play? In the case of the Denver Broncos and Oakland Raiders, a rather nasty fight.

It turned into a nasty brawl. But the primary players were Denver defensive back Aqib Talib, and Oakland receiver Michael Crabtree, who have a history together.

Both men were ejected. In the middle of the fight, Raiders’ lineman Gabe Jackson made contact with a referee. He was also ejected.

The sequence might have been uglier were it not for Marshawn Lynch. To get to the visiting locker room, Talib had to walk through a hostile Oakland bench. Lynch helped defuse any awkwardness by escorting Talib through it.

Rest assured, we have not heard the last of this one. Fines are a certainty and suspensions will likely follow.
