Mind-blowing stats for the Baltimore Ravens
In the 2014 NFL season, Baltimore Ravens' running back, Justin Forsett had a career high in rushing yards. Does he have what it takes to one day join former Ravens' defensive lineman Jonathan Ogden in the Pro Football Hall of Fame? Decide for yourself with these mind-blowing stats.
The Ravens have been .500 or better in each of the past 7 seasons -- all under head coach John Harbaugh. Only seven other coaches after 1970 began their coaching career with more consecutive seasons at .500-or-better: Marty Schottenheimer (14 straight), George Seifert (9 straight), Dennis Green (9 straight), Mike Holmgren (8 straight), Mike Tomlin (8 straight), Joe Gibbs (7 straight), and Ron Meyer (7 straight).
If playoff success makes you elite, Joe Flacco is there. His 7 road wins in the playoffs are the most in NFL history for a quarterback, and his 10 total playoff wins are behind only to Tom Brady for the most by a QB in his first 7 seasons (tied with Troy Aikman, Ben Roethlisberger).
With 1,266 rushing yards in 2014, Justin Forsett recorded the most rushing yards in franchise history by a player not named Jamal Lewis or Ray Rice. Forsett's previous career high was 619 rushing yards with the Seahawks in 2009.
Trent Dilfer is often mentioned among the worst quarterbacks to win a Super Bowl, but his Super Bowl season certainly wasn't the worst by an eventual Super Bowl-winning QB. Dilfer went 7-1 as a starter and had a passer rating of 76.6 during the 2000 regular season (leading up to his Super Bowl win). During the 1974 regular season, eventual Super Bowl-champ and future Hall of Famer Terry Bradshaw had a passer rating of 55.2. In fact, Dilfer's career passer rating of 70.2 is higher than Joe Namath's career passer rating of 65.5.
Ray Lewis is the only player in NFL history with 40+ sacks and 30+ interceptions. He is one of seven players in NFL history to win multiple Defensive Player of the Year Awards, alongside Lawrence Taylor, Joe Greene, Mike Singletary, Bruce Smith, Reggie White, and J.J. Watt.
In 2013, Jonathan Ogden became the first longtime Raven inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Selected 4th overall in the 1996 Draft, Ogden was also the first draft pick in Ravens history. Ogden joins Lee Roy Selmon (Buccaneers, 1976), Bob Lilly (Cowboys, 1961), Leo Nomellini (49ers, 1950), and Joe Stydahar (Bears, 1936) as the only Hall of Famers to be a franchise's first ever draft pick.
