who do you all think on the team is underrated?

[Raven07]

hey here's one....how about the Entire raven Team is underrated, you never really see anything about the ravens anywhere except when someone is in trouble, or released from the team....i mean come on, we've won 1 SuperBowl So far and have only had 1 losing season (6-10) since Billick took the reins as head coach, my personal oppinion is that the Ravens Organization desreves alot more Credit than its getting

I agree that the Ravens before last year got no respect.

I mean since they were doing good in the start of the season we were getting a little recognition, and then we lost a few times and then the only real talk was about Fossil getting the boot. Then we started to win again and we got a little more recognition.

But that's one season, the Ravens never got the respect the deserve.

I think ed reed is kind of underated.

I know he's been DMVP, and he's been an all-pro and stuff, but alot of people seem to think he can only play the pass.

I think its because of his low tackle counts and sack counts.But when your a safety and you got ray lewis and our other 'backers with a headstart, i think 70 tackles a year is pretty amazing!

I know he may not hit as hard as B-Dawk, sean taylor or roy williams, but one-on-one, I'd prefer ed in a running back's way than those guys. atleast he won't do something stupid like go for the strip or kill shot like williams and taylor(in particular) would, And he'll bring the guy down.

When you explain it like that, I do agree.

never thought about it, but that is a good point! ed reed in a way is underrated if you really, reeeeally think about it!

[willis mcgahee run u over]

ed reed is a DB that hits like a LB

he doesnt do that hit below the knees stuff on a RB like most DBs do

hes one of the few DBs that knocks a guy back when he is standing up tall and just hits him

believe me everyone knows ed reed can hit and is a ball-hawker

i wouldn't really say this guy is underrated because he is nothing more then what he is and thats a backup, but justin bannan came in last season and played his a** off. Many people trashed Ozzie for signing this guy, but like always Ozzie proved to be the man. Justin Banna before he got hurt was like a ball of engry, he and Gregg were guys that did the dirty work but made it look good. I can remember the SD game he was all over the place. Forcing fumble, stopping the run on 3rd down to get us the ball back. He is one of those guys u will never hear the analyst talk about, but i'm sure the opposing players know when he's on the field. I can't wait to see the type of year he has this season after being with us a full year.

How is Heap underrated? He's right up there with Gates and Gonzalez. Also, i think we lost the Colts game because of his stupid fumble.

I would say Trevor Pryce and Kelly Gregg and Corey Ivy.

Dude how can u say that?! blame the loss on Steve McNairs interceptions and Jamal Lewis's inability to break through a freakin cornerback! lol

Sam Koch. The ability to pin the other team deep really helps out our defense.
