"I got emotional," Ward said after the game. "I didn't really punch him. I don't even think that I punched him, if you see it, but it looked like a windup. You can take it how it is. It was an emotional game. A hard-fought [game] for us, defensively with a lot of things going on that you guys weren't able to see. I lost control."
Ward, however, continued to say that the Chiefs were "a pretty dirty team" and "were doing cheap things all game."
"It was their team as a whole," Ward said. "They were a pretty dirty team: the O-linemen, receivers and tight ends. They were doing it last game, and they continued to do it this game. It took an effect on me."
