Really???

You equate London Fletcher - - who is the most important defensive player on the Skins even if he is not the most physically talented player on the defense - - with Ray Lewis? :confused:

I don't think I can stretch that far...

Its an analogy, not a direct player comparison, and I kind of agree with it.

They both pretty much play the exact same role for their teams both position and leadership wise. While Lewis is obviously the better player and Baltimore’s defense is also much better I would agree that our defense would be affected in a similar manor as the Ravens d if both were missing their premier player and leader.

I understand your analogy - - but I think it is a bit less direct a comparison than you make it out to be. Thanx for explaining.
