Gotta do Ed Reed now, his halftime speech when he was at Miami will give you chills

[@Spaghatee]

Ray Lewis was the epitome of what a MLB is. Played his entire career in Baltimore, and was the staple of that defense the entire time he was there. Passionate is an understatement when it came to Ray Lewis. The GOAT!

[@pattilapeche]

Not the GOAT. That would be Lawrence Taylor,

[@dfloriza]

People can talk a lot about the strength, intimidation, and motivational qualities of Ray Lewis, but Ray was also one of the hardest working people in football. He would study tape religiously, and a lot of the time, he was able to exploit the top quarterbacks and play chess matches with them, and force them into making risky and difficult decisions. Him and Ed Reed were master tacticians that knew how to pull offenses apart. Definitely some of the best to ever play the game.

[@daleowen2606]

Ray Lewis and Ed Reed are the most impressive defensive players I've ever seen and they were teammates!

[@ajrocks44]

Yes Ray was always a Raven. We have had season tickets to the Ravens since 98 so I was at most of those games. He announced he was retiring and we were not favorites to make it far in the playoffs but they went in a miracle run and won 3 playoff games and the Superbowl to end Ray's career. 12 time Pro bowler which is the best at ur position in the league, 2 time Superbowl winner. I remember in 96 when we got the Ravens and had drafted Ray my dad and I were watching a preseason game and we saw a flash and a hit and my dad said that's the rookie from University of Miami, he looks good, I said he looks great. Hall of Famer and a all time great personality.

[@humble_haplo]

Ray Lewis set the tone for my Ravens for 17 years. The greatest middle line backer ever. This video damn near brought tears to my eyes.

[@phswildcatsfan]

Ray Lewis was always a Raven. Hall of Famer. He was loved dearly by Ravens fans but, many outside of Baltimore did not care for his bravado. He played Inside or middle Linebacker in the NFL for 17 years at an all Pro level and made the players around him better. I have never seen another player like 52 ever and I doubt I ever will.

[@DNReacts]

Love this! He’s definitely the kind of person I’d want next to me, but not opposite me. Great player and we hope to do more videos on Ray soon

[@FuranzuDesu]

Yes there are typically captains. Usually separate offensive and defensive. every team may do it differently. Most the time on offense it’ll be the quarterback, defensively it can vary, linebacker, safety, d-lineman… but probably the most often it’s the middle linebacker, which was Ray Lewis’s position. Ray is probably the most dominant middle linebacker of all time, on the most dominant defense of all time. The Ravens defense of the early 2000s were all monsters.

[@DNReacts]

Thanks for the comment Terry!

[@TheDeadStretch]

@@DNReacts To add to this you'll notice the "C" patch/badge on the players right side chest/shoulder area when they are a Captain. Under the C on the patch will have stars. That's for each year they have been a Captain on that team.

[@dabombgiggity123]

@@DNReacts Just to expand on what Terry said, there's usually 5 or 6 captains on each team (typically 3 on offense and 3 on defense) and they'll almost always be a mix of positions among the captains. As an example, like Terry said, on offense, the quarterback is usually always a captain unless it's perhaps their first year in the league or first year on the team and then you'll typically have one offensive lineman captain and then one captain who is either a wide receiver, running back, or tight end

[@FuckYoutubeAndGoogle]

@@TheDeadStretch True, but only some teams do the C patch for captains, the Ravens are one of the teams who don't, which is why Ray Lewis never had one.

Ray Lewis was the team leader for the Ravens from the minute he walked into that locker room after being drafted and stayed that way for all 17 years he was with them. He is arguably the greatest middle linebacker of all time

[@billyray6913]

He was intense. A leader. A savage.

[@jeremiahcoen2348]

I'm a die hard Dallas Cowboys fan but Rey Lewis is hands down my favorite football player ever at any position. He could make any tackle from any angle, his angle of pursuit was top notch, his hit intensity was fierce but most of all his leadership and motivational attitude sets him apart from 99%. He was the quarterback of that Ravens defense for sure. Did I mention Rey Lewis is my favorite player ever? Lol

[@ArabianSnipa]

That last clip of Ray Lewis at the super bowl are from the great Joseph Vincent, makes the best sports/career tribute videos for all sports and especially NFL. Y'all should definitely check him out, and reactions to his vids will surely bring lots of viewers. Love the content fellas

Best Middle Linebacker to ever do it

[@rozi2089]

"Is Ray Lewis a popular player?" Oh boy was he lol 😆 That man would knock the taste out of your mouth! Intense from start to finish. One of the best linebackers ever. Could argue he's top 3 all time as far as Middle Linebackers go.

[@niravpatel7570]

Ray was the heart of Baltimore Football. This man is followed by the word defense where ever he goes. He is the wall, and his motto is, Defence wins championships!

[@eastcoast__fishing]

Bullies of Baltimore was a great documentary about the 2000 - 2001 ravens defense. Ray was one of the players who was on the episode. Definitely check it out! You could also check out his biggest hits or his deck of cards story

[@jessejordache1869]

That defense... when the Jets played them late in the season, the Jets coach said at a press conference something like "yeah, I don't think we have much of a chance to win here. I've never seen a defense like this." And me and other Jets fans were like "well... yeah, but you don't SAY that!" Then watching them in the Superbowl, the way the Giants took the field, followed by the way the Ravens took the field, who were moving like "THERE IS TOO MUCH POWER FOR MY BODY TO CONTAIN" and there hadn't been a play yet and I was like "this game is over."

Every position group has captains. Multiple captains, but each team in it's locker room has one true, unspoken captain.

[@dennislopez1272]

Hey gents, glad you got to see some clips of Ray Lewis. He's the greatest to ever play the Middle linebacker position. He played for my college team, the Miami Hurricanes. Ray has been a leader every team he's played for. The Miami Hurricane players are built a little different. I played football as well so any information you guys need I'll be more than willing to answer. The football players that have a capital "C" ,on the uniform jersey, are the team captains.

[@DNReacts]

Thanks Dennis!

[@jessejordache1869]

I always think of the Miami Hurricanes as an NFL linebacker factory.

[@dennislopez1272]

@jessejordache1869 We have had some great ones. I wouldn't call us Linebacker U but we've had a decent amount. My favorite group was the "Bermuda Triangle" in the 90s. The trio of linebackers, Michael Barrow, Darrin Smith and Jessie Armstead could be the greatest group to play together ever.

[@Cheddarextremist]

Y’all need to react to Sean Taylor. One of the greatest, hardest-hitting safeties to ever play the game. Cut down tragically in his prime by a gunshot during a home invasion. If he had lived to play a full career he would be known as the greatest safety of all time, hands down.

[@jakethethird1584]

Was he popular?!? He's arguably the greatest middle linebacker in the history of the NFL. He is the EPITOME of what a football player is supposed to be.

[@MSUHitman]

Also the cover athlete for madden 2005, and is one of only three defensive players (out of the 22 covers that have featured players) to ever be on the cover of the game.

[@teti_99]

This was the team my cousin Haloti played for. Drafted in the first round of the NFL draft at the advice of Ray Lewis. My cousin helped to prolong Ray's career by eating up so many blocks in the middle and freeing up space for Ray to do his thing. Also my uncle Maake Kemoeatu played on that team as well. This is my team!!!! RAVENS FLOCK!!!! 💯💯💯💯

[@david-1775]

Best defense in the world would be a 3-4 with Ray Lewis and Jack Lambert (maybe London Fletcher) in the middle with Lawrence Taylor and Kevin Greene (maybe Derrick Thomas) on the edges. Casey Hampton as nose tackle with Bruce Smith and Reggie White on the outsides.

[@maxclarity6657]

[@LukeGeorgalas]

As intimidating as Ray looked on the field, most of his effectiveness came from how seriously he took film study. He was always in the right place at the right time. Search for the play against Darren Sproles. The story on that play is that he completely ad-libbed because he knew exactly what was coming. He wasn't supposed to run through that gap.

[@MoosePuncher1993]

Ray is pretty widely considered the greatest middle linebacker to ever play. Probably one of the most intense players to ever play as well and a spectacular leader, was the absolute heart and soul of the Ravens for 17 years. He even topped off his long career with a miracle filled playoff run ending with a Super Bowl win, felt like it was straight out of a movie. Even the Super Bowl couldn’t help but to be extra dramatic with the two head coaches being brothers, a blackout occurring stopping play for a half an hour and the game coming down to a final pass to the end zone which ended controversially enough that it’s still argued about over a decade later.

[@duchaneaux]

Ray Lewis was the captain and probably the best linebacker of the 2000's. The Ravens always had a top 3 defense in the 2000's - Lewis, Ed Reed, and Terrell Suggs were their best defensive players. Teams had to plan against Lewis and Reed specifically. My favorite games were when the Ravens played against the Steelers -- two defensive powerhouses of the 2000's.

We do have captains, typically there will be one for Offense, Defense, and Special Teams. But also some teams will just have their 4 best leaders be captains. Nowadays they have a white C patch on the players right shoulder with stars to indicate how long they've been captains and after a certain point it will be gold if theyve been a captain for a long time to signify just how important of a leader they are. Bonus info they will also have patches for winning the Walter Payton Man of the Year award given to players for acts of community service in addition to excelling on the field.

[@ryanlargent9320]

I’d highly recommend reacting to a Ravens/Steelers rivalry video. It’s perhaps the fiercest rivalry in the NFL but also comes with a lot of respect because both teams are built similarly and have a similar ethos (primarily running offenses, super strong defenses, not using the captains patch, rarely if ever fully retiring numbers). Their games are normally put on national primetime even if one team isn’t doing well that year, and when they meet in the playoffs it’s always a classic. I’m a Ravens fan but I admit you’ll probably get a kick out of some of the personalities from the Steelers (like Hines Ward and Jerome Bettis) if you liked Ray Lewis.

[@DNReacts]

Thank you Ryan. Have added to our list!

[@fumesniff]

The rule states that NFL teams should have six captains, but many teams in the past have carried more than six, as the rule isn't strictly enforced. The only teams that haven't used the C patch are the pats, ravens, and steelers.
