roger goodell continues to be under fire. many people don't believe what he's x-waying and amidst the controversy, the ravens had to get back to work. the baltimore ravens taking the feet for the first time since their teammate ray rice was let go amidst a domestic violence controversy. in a new report, four sources tell espn that rice met with nfl commissioner roger goodell back in june, admitting he punched his then-fiance janay palmer in a casino elevator months before tmz posted the surveillance video. on tuesday, goodell told cbs news's that rice's account of what happened was ambiguous compared to what the video showed. >> what was ambiguous about her laying unconscious on the floor being dragged out by her seat in. >> there was nothing ambiguous about that. that was the result that we saw. we did not know what led up to that. >> a number of current and former players calling for goodell to be held accountable is growing by the day. >> roger goodell failed to act, plain and simple. if he failed to act, there should be c

roger goodell, they put out a tweet in which they said roger goodell announced based on new video evidence that became available today, he indefinitely suspended ray rice. new video evidence, is it disingenuous? i'll start with you, jemele, to take this action and say it's based on new evidence when this is essentially part two of the same evidence they had before? >> i think it is disingenuous, as has been pointed out, i think our legal analyst here at espn said it best, what do they think happened in that elevator that would lead to her being unconscious? clearly -- and for him to take a plea bargain, that's an admitance of violence. i think for roger goodell, he's admitted he's wrong in print and maybe -- i don't know, maybe he didn't see this video and there's been conflicting reports. our own chris mortenson reported few months ago some in the nfl brass had seen the video. if they had, i'm wondering, how did this not get to the commissioner, a man who prides himself knowing the ins and outs of this league. whether it was new england patriots with spygate, michael vick, he has made it

lobbied the police or roger goodell? >> everybody, it shouldn't be a total shock, the team has a vested interest in having their best player on the field. that is the reason this can be and should be taken out of the team's hands. it is the reason the nfl is asked to weigh in on it, the reason that roger goodell is supposed to be issuing the penalties. it is the reason why multiple sources question who was in the room when they interviewed janay rice, for example, because they shouldn't be breathing over anybody's shoulder with this information. >> and is there any report on harbaugh who gave a press conference a week or so ago? >> yeah, this is really interesting, two separate times according to the report, that he went to the higher-ups and said cut him. we have to cut this guy. what he did was reprehensible, we have to cut him. this is different than the public face. publicly he says he tows the company line, but privately, this has not been confirmed by the ravens, he went to ravens brass and said cut him. and for pe
