Ed Reed
This post is all about my favorite Defensive player in the NFL, Ed Reed, and also arguably the best safety in the game right now. Ed Reed is an instruemental piece to the Ravens devistating defence. The seven year veteran out of the University of Miami is leading the NFL in interceptions with an amazing 9, two of which have been returned for a touchdown. One of the interceptions he returned for a touchdown was a NFL record return for 108 yards beating his own previous record of 106 yards. Also all of his interception return yards added up for 264 yards. He was also the only unanimous AP All-pro pick which says alot in its self. He also recieves high praise from his Head coach John Harbough. "He has a tremendous feel for the game," Ravens coach John Harbaugh said of Reed, who made his third All-Pro squad. "Very, very intelligent player, studies it as well or better than anybody. And he's a highly disciplined player. He plays his position as well as anybody I've ever seen." To go along with all his interceptions he also recorded 41 tackles on the season leading the Ravens secondary. Just his presence on the field alone causes trouble for offensive coordinaters and make them mold their game plan around him. He is an indespensible part of the Ravens defence and intimidater just like thirteenth year linebacking teammate Ray Lewis.
