Brotherhood is found thru our struggles...
Yardbarkers, First off, I would like to apologize for missing last week, we had a lot going on with the team, so I was all over the place...Don't think I forgot about you though...It's good to be back. My message to the team this week is Brotherhood is found thru our struggles, But now we have overcame, it is our time. Take it upon yourself to be better everyday. It was really just talking about adversity. We've been through adversity, dealing with all these injuries, all the ups and downs, and my message is very simple: that stuff pulls champions together. When you go through things like that and you have to fight through it. Once you learn how to deal with those things and you know how to fit people in like 'next man up', the next thing to do is keep moving. Now it's time for us to grab momentum because the scariest thing ever is when you add confidence and camaraderie with talent. And that's one thing that we have and probably makes us one of the best in the business right now. When you add that together, we'll get on the right road. That's pretty much what my message was about. 5-2 going into the bye is the only thing that matters. Last week we played well as a defense. I think every year it just shows what our identity is. At the beginning of the year we get all our kinks out very early, and then as the year progresses we get more and more dominant. I think last week really showed, as a team, defensively once we get up on anybody it's going to be hard for teams in this league to just try and come back on us. So I think last week was a big win to getting back to what our true identity is, which is running the football and doing the things we're supposed to be doing and playing hard-nosed defense.

Good luck against the Bills and stay healthy. When you're on the sideline in Buffalo and it's cold, just remind yourself how warm it will be in Arizona at Super Bowl XLII.
Go Ravens.

At 5-2, the Ravens become Superbowl contenders. I think you guys are experienced enough, tough enough, and good enough to take on the Patriots. But really, as long as my Ravens D performs for me, my fantasy team is set.

Wow.
"I think you guys are experienced enough, tough enough, and good enough to take on the Patriots."
I have a policy to never bet against Ray Lewis. That said, I think a lot of it depends on whether or not Brian Billick can stick to what works: running the ball and playing defense. He seems pretty hot and heavy on the idea of putting a more balanced offense on the field as opposed to sticking with Baltimore's "true identity," as Ray puts it.
Billick should give McGahee the ball, let him chew up the clock, and then let Ray & Co. do their thing.

Just to let you know we the UKRavens will all be wearing our Raven colours for the Giant/Dolphin game at Wembley London this Sunday. We are even trying to get a photo with "Goose" as he's covering the game on the sidelines.Check us out at UKRavens.co.uk we bleed purple and black from 3000 miles away bro.And we were at M&T last year giving the Raider tailgaters hell with songs such as,"Do you think you are Cleveland in disguise."
