Baltimore Ravens: Top 5 Performers In Two Super Bowl Wins
2. Ray Lewis:
Now we are getting to the Super Bowl MVP’s of the Baltimore Ravens. Lewis is the only Raven to play in both Super Bowls and he was the MVP of Super Bowl XXXV. A young Ray Lewis was something you had to see to believe. He was a dominant sideline to sideline linebacker and he dominated the New York Giants. It felt like Lewis had a clone or two during the Ravens first Super Bowl, because he was all over the field.
Lewis is the greatest Ravens player of all time. He was the emotional leader of the team. In the first Super Bowl, he was one of the best players of all time, rocking it in his prime. In the second Super Bowl, he was a legend making his last stand. Lewis was the most physical, the most fierce and the most special player I have ever had the privilege of watching. In Super Bowl XXXV he was the conductor of the Giants’ pain. In Super Bowl XLVII he was the inspirational hero of the team.
The Ravens won Super Bowl XLVII because they put up 34 points. However, nothing could be more fitting than a goal line stand on Ray Lewis’s last time on the football field. Lewis lived a career that was pure magical.
