| The Ravens defense continues to be one of the top in all of football. The ranked second in overall defense last season and allowed just 15 points per game. They also scored six defensive touchdowns and led the league in interceptions with 26. Ed Reed is getting older, but continues to make a ton of plays in the secondary and is a threat to score every time he gets the ball. Ray Lewis is another aging defensive player, but Lewis managed 117 tackles last season, showing he isn't slowing down just yet. The Ravens did lose a key defensive member in Bart Scott, though, so this could set back the unit a bit. If the Ravens have a flaw defensively, it is getting after the quarterback. They are just middle of the pack with Terrell Suggs serving as the top pass rusher. The special teams aren't outstanding, but better than average. Yamon Figurs gives the Ravens a solid return man. He is usually near the top of the league in both kick and punt returns. He has big-time speed and a few return scores under his belt.

The loss of Scott stings, but this defense remains one of the top in all of fantasy football. They are tough to run and pass against, limiting points and yards. The Ravens also do a good job of making big plays and causing turnovers. Expect more of the same from this unit. |
