Matt Stover is the 3rd greatest Raven of all time! (RLewis, JOgden)
However, although he kicked alot of feild goals when we couldnt score points, the defense was just as much responsible for those wins as he was.
I will certainly miss Stover, but I am looking forward to a having the kickoff go past the 15 yard line.

Good luck to you Matt – its time to retire. You were the offense for many years. See you in the ROH. But it is time to move on. His leg is no longer reliable past 40 yards and having to keep a kickoff specialist sucks up a valuable spot on the roster.
@ The Blast Furnace – screw you

Sign with the Giants – Old kickers flourish there!!!
HAHAHAHA
Anyway, he is still a solid kicker. He will get signed.

What’s your hard-on with describing the Ravens as the former Browns? Seems really odd, and not terribly funny.

As a Steelers fan, I’m glad to see him go.
Good moves by the Ravens so far this offseason. Let the younger LB go to an AFC team, sign the aging LB and let the guy go who won countless games for a team that never has had an offense.
Good job Ravens.

Thanks, Matt. you are a class act,
regularly signing for kids after practice when
the Over priced,aging line backer had long left
the field at Westminster training camp.
True Ravens fans really appreciate
your time in Baltimore, on and off
the field!

The Ravens will always be the Browns.

Matt was a huge part of keeping the Ravens in some tight games and was key to their success throughout the years. I love the guy however…….when he told the Ravens he had the Jets offer, seems like he was playing one employer against the other. If you want to leave then leave. Bisciotti is not going to put up with disloyal employees…..unless your name is Lewis. Ray Ray essentially did the same thing with the whole Ware/Cowboys thing. It will be interesting to see how the fans react to him the first time out of the tunnel.

Ya gotta love Matt Stover. This year, he said something to the effect of “he will always be a Cleveland Brown at heart” and that he still receives the Cleveland Browns alumni newsletter. Many on here probably also know that Stover and Phil Dawson attended the same high school. I can only hope that Dawson has as long of a career as Stover.

That’s a mistake.

The Ravens are going to regret that decision. There were many times in a game time situation that Stover came through. Matt doesn’t have the range he once had but from the 35 yard line in, he’s automatic. Matt Stover is the reason the Ravens made it to the Superbowl.
He can win games for a team. Detroit should pick him up. That team needs all the points it can get.
Matt Stover gone. One less thing for the Steelers to worry about.

Make a trip down I-95 Matt. Lord knows the Skins could use a reliable kicker like you.

Sad to see him go. Given the frequently inept offense, that guy carried a huge chunk of the scoring for the team for as long as I can remember.

WOW Plan B free agency. I forgot all about that. I didnt think there were any players left in the leage who where playin when that system was in place. Man that guy has been around.

The only game I ever attended at old Cleveland Browns Stadium was lost because of Matt Stover. Bernie Kosar drove the team down to the two yard line and Stover missed the game-tying chipshot.
Finally, I feel like retribution has been served.
Not really.
