Countdown to Kick Off

The fact is there are options.
There is only one option for 52 and 75.
But there is one other number only ever worn by one player and unless I am mistaken this number has never been on the field in the regular season or post season.
Who knows that number and the reason why.
( again assuming I am not wrong. )
There have been more than one 55, but only one of them is among the top ten Ravens' ever (possibly top five). Granted, there is one other one of the four that would be acceptable, since he was part of the 2000 defense.
 
Just so we don't get off track, tomorrow should be day 55.
I'll take that opportunity and add a valid 55 days.... picture

That's a tough one. At first, I was thinking #19 as Scott Mitchell was the only player to wear that number but, I had forgotten he started 2 games after checking it out. Then I was thinking #13, Chris Matthews. Although he played some games in 2015 after coming from Sea., he wore #84 and switched to #13 in 2016 while on the PS. After a little research, I found another 1 year PS player wore #13, Eric Riley. So I must say you have me stumped on this one K-Dog.

Well that would be my bad then.
I THOUGHT 19 never played a game but I was wrong.
It is my understanding that there are only three "unofficially retired" numbers in this organization.
52 20 and 19.
For you youngin's google Johnny Unitas.
 
One of my favorite Ray Lewis moments was when Chris McAlister returned a field goal 107 yards. Ray blocked for him and absolutely destroyed some poor Broncos' special teamer.
 
Mine was 4th and 3 on Darren Sproles. It was the epithomy of the LB play to me. Perfect from start to finish.

I was actually at that game.
It was amazing.

Interestingly what a lot of people miss is Ray was not alone. He and two other defenders ( ? ) busted through the line. Sproles wasn't going anywhere.

I never noticed that, I'll check again, thanks for pointing that out.
