Football Ravens lose Lewis and Webb for season - Page 2

OUCH!!!

They are toast-weakest 5-1 team around.

The Baltimore Ravens improved to 5-1 on Sunday but lost way more than they gained as both linebacker Ray Lewis and cornerback Lardarius Webb will miss the remainder of the season, coach John Harbaugh confirmed Monday.

Lewis suffered a "full tear" of his triceps muscle, Harbaugh said, while a torn ACL has ended Webb's year.

Webb banged his knee in a first-quarter collision with Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant. Webb remained prone on the field for several minutes before being helped to the sideline.

Now in his fourth season, Webb has one interception, one forced fumble and a fumble recovery in six games this year.

Meanwhile, Haloti Ngata, the team's best player on the defensive line, suffered a torn MCL in the victory but is likely to play Sunday against the Texans, a league source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.

It is unknown how this injury affects the long-term future of Lewis, 37, who has refused to talk about his retirement plans.

Harbaugh refused to speculate about Lewis' NFL future on Monday.

"I'm not going to comment on that. That's for Ray to speak on," Harbaugh said.

Lewis led the Ravens with 14 tackles in Sunday's 31-29 win over the Cowboys.

Sucks to be them, but that is football.

Houston may win the AFC by default by this point. Or the door finally swings open for the Chargers.

I thought I overheard the crowd cheering when Lewis went down. Classless.

It was as though Lewis' tricep were just sliced right off the bone.

End of an era. I know he's unpopular here, but Lewis was a singular talent. Perhaps one of the best MLB of all time. NFL fans will miss him.

Now its time to see how good Ozzie Newsome/Decosta and Joe Flacco really are.

Next man up.

I admire Ray Lewis, I think he's the best MLB of all time. He'll be on the sidelines leading that team and firing them up. They'll still be alright. He's a leader of men.

I think this is the end for Ray Ray.

He would murder the rest of the AFC West.

You think Ray Ray is going to go into assistant coaching?

He will be one of the best on-air personalities ever.

3 or 4 million a year to coach a defense would be hard to pass up.

Oh, no doubt.

The networks will be knocking each other over for his services.

I think they could still win the Superbowl. Even with the injuries. Ray had definately lost a step this year anyway.
