Ravens LB Ray Lewis Wants Another Super Bowl Ring
He might be far off from beginning his 15th NFL season, but linebacker Ray Lewis believes this Ravens team is primed for a Super Bowl run.
That is the one thing the stalwart veteran has on his mind.
“For me, not to discredit [the Pro Bowl], but that’s kind of easy for me,” said Lewis in an interview with BaltimoreRavens.com. “I can go chase numbers and get this many tackles and this many sacks. But I only play for one thing – I want another ring bad. I want another championship.
“I really want a ring with the guys that I have in-house right now. We have a close-knit group, and that’s what builds championships.”
Lewis pointed to a recently-bolstered passing attack as a main reason for Baltimore’s championship buzz. The Ravens brought in three-time Pro Bowl receiver Anquan Boldin and the speedy Donte’ Stallworth. Then, Derrick Mason re-signed.
With a second-year quarterback Joe Flacco at the helm, the Ravens showed that they could field a stellar offense last year. But, next season could be unprecedented for Lewis.
The best the Ravens have ever performed offensively during his tenure was 1996, when Baltimore finished third. That year, the Ravens racked up 357.7 yards per game when Vinny Testaverde utilized two 1,000-yard receivers (Michael Jackson and Derrick Alexander) to amass 4,177 passing yards.
