something tells me if the bengals and giants win tomorrow, we might see him the last game with the division on the line…

I hope Ray Ray plays ASAP because he will only hurt the Ravens. Too old- to slow.

Just to reiterate above commentary…Steelers win division with 2 wins and 2 Raven losses. Look it up. All 3 teams would finish 9-7. 1st tiebreaker in that scenario is head to head vs other 2 teams. Pit would be 3-1, Bal 2-2 and Cin 1-3. Three teams potentially tied here is the key. Possible: yes. Likely: no.

Hadn’t rained in Baltimore since he has not played. Need to get that rain dance going again.

Who cares! Him and Urlacher are only hanging on now. They’ve been passed over by guys like Patrick Willis, Brian Cushing and now Luke Kuechly.

I’ve been really hoping for a third matchup between my Steelers and the hated Ratbirds, which obviously can only happen in the playoffs. With any luck, not only will I get my wish BUT Ray will be back in the lineup (and Suggs, and Webb, and other starters who missed their other 2 games). Two game each decided by three points, let’s have a third to see who’s truly KING OF THE HILL! Best of luck on getting/being healthy Ray.

@ causisaid: Just for the record: The Steelers cannot win the AFC North. And the Ravens clinch the AFC North regardless of the Giants outcome with a Steelers win over the Bengals. So go get’um Steelers!!

Just for the record, the Steelers can indeed win the AFC North, if they win out and the Ravens lose out. So, go get ‘um Steelers!!!!!!

The guy’s a class act …..

———–

Lets not get crazy here-there was that whole murder thing by his crew and concealing/getting rid of evidence that could have tied him to the crime. Agreed he has pretty much kept his nose clean since that, but does not mean that situation in 2000 did not happen.

Heard Ray Ray got credit for five tackles since he hasn’t played. HOF for sure!

Can’t wait to see him in purple again… Glad he is back one and out in the playoffs… 3 weeks of losing keep up the good work!

The ILBs behind Lewis have been decimated by injuries.

Even if you think Ray Lewis has lost several steps, his return will still be huge for the Ravens.

The loss of Lewis isn’t what is holding the Ravens back. It’s their (lack of) offense.

I guess they came to the realization that allowing him to play, injured, in a meaningless game made zero sense.

I’m not a Ravens fan.. but anyway.. Mr. Lewis seems like the type of man who, even when he’s not playing, gets positive things accomplished – whether it’s working with the community, the team or even his own family. The type of guy I’d like to shake hands with and congratulate on doing all the things I’ve never been able to accomplish. The guy’s a class act and I hope he comes back, but I also hope he doesn’t rush himself and get hurt again when they need him the most.

No big loss. The Raven defense was off when Lewis was PLAYING earlier in season. Hall of Famer but be honest – better options on roster. Even 100% healthy Ray Lewis just isn’t the same now. That being said look forward to his HOF speech.
