RAY LEWIS CHAMPION

 

Ray Lewis, the Ravens’ soon-to-be-retired middle linebacker, tried to grasp the question of where the 38-35, double-overtime victory over the Denver Broncos ranked.

After shaking his head, blowing some air through his lips and saying, “God is amazing,” the future Hall of Famer said it would have to rank as “one of the greatest victories in Ravens history.”

Lewis is a two-time NFL defensive player of the year and was the heart and soul of a Ravens team that won Super Bowl XXXV. He was selected MVP of that Super Bowl, so he knows a great deal about the biggest victories in Ravens history.

The 13-time Pro Bowler said he challenged the Ravens to ignore everything outside of the locker room and practice field in preparation for the trip to Denver.

“When you look back at [the win] and recap, let all the emotions run down, it’ll probably be one of the greatest victories in Ravens history,” Lewis said.

He didn’t have a bad outing himself. Lewis made 17 tackles in the game. Not bad for a 17-year veteran who was supposed to be lost for the season when he tore a triceps in a win over the Dallas Cowboys on Oct. 15.

Lewis, who will retire after the playoffs to cap a 17-year career, will play on after the Ravens stunned the host Broncos 38-35 in double overtime, a loss that goes down with the most devastating in Denver history.

“Certainly we did a lot of good things this season, but as of right now, it’s hard to think about anything besides the loss tonight,” Manning said afterward.

Manning did enough in regulation to help his team win, despite the first two turnovers. But he also was not perfect. He wasn’t at his best, whether it was due to the weather or the pressure of leading his new franchise to a playoff win.

“I probably wasn’t quite as good as I wanted to be,” Manning said, “and it probably cost us a couple of scoring opportunities.”

On Denver’s second possession of overtime, he stopped and threw across his body to the middle of the field and into the arms of Ravens cornerback Corey Graham at Denver’s 45. Baltimore ran five plays and gained 16 yards before Justin Tucker sailed his winning kick down the middle.

“Yeah, bad throw,” Manning said. “Probably the decision wasn’t great, either. I thought I had an opening, and I didn’t get enough on it, and I was trying to make a play and certainly a throw I’d like to have back.”

Lewis, who led the Ravens with 17 tackles over this nearly 77-minute game in 13-degree weather, kneeled down to the ground and put his helmet on the rock-solid turf when it was over.

“I’ve never been a part of a game so crazy in my life,” Lewis said.

At this point I am rooting for Ray Lewis to take the Ravens to Houston or more likely New England for a rematch of last year’s AFC Championship game where the Ravens came up short against Tom Brady and the Patriots. I don’t really think it matters to Lewis & his Ray-vens team mates as the emotion that usually carries teams to victory in the National Football League is most prevalent in the Baltimore locker room and personally I would love nothing more than for the Ray-vens to beat the Pats and then    have the Harbaugh brothers be opposing coaches in Super Bowl XLVII and having John the Ray-vens coach beat his snarky brother Jim in New Orleans on February 3, 2013. But that’s another story…
