Ray Lewis thinks Tom Brady injuries are a "set-up" | ProFootballTalk.com

"I think sometimes, that's the biggest set-up ever," Lewis said. "Look at all the great ones, man. All the great ones, man, every time you say they're hurt, they come out and have their best games. So, forget all that! Who's hurt and who's not. If you have your uniform on, we understand that you're playing full throttle. You're playing just like who you are."

According to Ian R. Rapoport of the Boston Herald, Lewis used a high, shrill voice while mocking the idea that anyone should think Brady's injuries are affecting him.

"Oh Tom has this! Let's try and do this, let's try and do that," Lewis said. "As soon as you try to do that, it leaves people man-on-man, then he hurts you. . . . Then he's [celebrated] because he's done it with three broke ribs and a finger."

Wow, I can't imagine Ray Lewis sounding like that :rolleyes:
 
So Ray Lewis is making an excuse about how the Patriots are making an "excuse" should the Ravens lose?

I don't get it.
 
Ray Lewis has jumped the shark.
 
methinks Lewis wants to be Giselle and get his Brady on...hes way too obsesssed with Tommy.
 
It actually looks like he is complimenting him about how great he is:

"Look at all the great ones, man. All the great ones, man, every time you say they're hurt, they come out and have their best games. So, forget all that!
 

this guys act is getting really old. What the amazing thing is is that neither Brady, Belichick or any member of the Patriots organization have ever complained or used an injury for an excuse for anything. But if you listen to guys like Lewis, you would think the Pats use the injury excuse all the time. All I can say is let Lewis and the Ravens talk. Let them complain, let them speculate and let them make excuses. They did that after facing the Pats in week 4 and went on to lose 5 out of 8 games. They need to be worrying about their own team, rather then others.
 
It's not a ridiculous assumption: "The Pats release some injury 'news' about Brady to try to give the Ravens some misinformation."

If the Ravens did believe Brady was hurt, they would probably try to bring the heat a little more. If Brady is Brady, he will eat the blitz for breakfast. It makes sense to me.

I think Ray is just saying that he may or may not have the injuries that may or may not have been factually reported.
 
this guy has a chip on his shoulder the size of the grand canyon...he constantly has to draw attention to himself and he continually has to feel like someone is putting something over on him...

he's very predictable and very boring...
 
Remember when Ray pretended to kill two people and then won the Super Bowl MVP a year later? That was the biggest set-up ever.

amirite amirite
 
Except for delivery style, how is that different from what BB or Brady would say on the subject?
 
People here are trying to interpret his comments as an insult. To me is sounds like he's basically saying, "We are going to play this game and make a gameplan around the assumption that Brady is 100% because if we act like he is injured and gameplan around that, he will burn us."

"set up" has certain connotations. But yea Ray is just basically stating the obvious, you can't make your gameplan depend on an injury limiting a great player.
 
mudering scum........don't get me started.
 
and he'll be the first to squeal after we smash them once again.
 
I can already think of a bigger set up... Ray Lewis's friends taking the fall for when he murdered someone
 
Uh oh. Terrell Suggs just said on NFL Sirius that he was hoping for a couple of pesonal penalties on Brady. This should stir the pot some.
