5 Ravens who helped themselves against the Dolphins
By Hassan Zakai
The Ravens’ offense showed some signs of life against the Miami Dolphins, while the defense was once again dominant in the 31-7 beatdown win.
While we know there are veterans like Terrell Suggs and Mike Wallace that will be starting the entire season, there are plenty of opportunities for younger players to come in, produce well and make a name for themselves.

As former Ravens receiver Steve Smith Sr. says, the way you catch on with a team is to make “a play a day.”
Here are some players that we thought helped themselves either earn a roster spot or showed they deserve more playing time this season.
