Ray Lewis's premature 4th down celebration

[BTTA]

Ray is reportedly in his best physical shape ever having lost something like 10/15 pounds

Ray Lewis has been playing with 10-15 pounds of extra body fat? Wow. Imagine how good he would have been if he'd gotten rid of it years ago. That borders on complete irresponsibility, for an athlete to sacrifice the quality of his game when all he has to do is lose a few pounds, and still take the paycheck for millions a year.

Ravens played in a total of 219 games in this sample and won 114 of them for a winning % of 52%. When the final score was close, the winning percent was lower, 43%.

Whether or not the result here is attributable to a lack of discipline or something else, who knows?

Interesting stats. Thanks for sharing.

Like you, I don't know that the difference can actuallty be attributed to lack of discipline and I do wonder how other teams compare in such instances (obviously it has to even out over all the teams, but are there a handfull of teams that seem to lose more of the close games for example?).

However, I think it is pretty obvious that for a team that professes to have such immense physical toughness, they sure are lacking in mental toughness. Biggest bunch of crybabies I've ever seen.
