Ray LewisRavens linebacker Ray Lewis said there should be a seamless transition in the defense's first regular season game under new coordinator Greg Mattison, who replaces Rex Ryan. Under Ryan, the Ravens defense never finished lower than No. 6 in the NFL.
"Do you love Rex? Yeah," Lewis said. "But Rex has never made a play when you step on the field. No defensive coordinator has. Bottom line, the players make plays. We have a core group that is dedicated to each other. Any time you have that type of chemistry inside, it’s almost impossible not to come back and have the same defense."
