End of Season Awards

There is an article on the BaltimoreRavens.com where a couple local sportswriters give their annual media awards.... So i figured i would give mine.

Best Individual Single Game Performance: Most of the writes said Ed Reed's 107 Yard INT Return was the best but that's to easy. Ill go with Derrick Mason's week 16 performance. Mason had 6 Rec for 66 Yards and 1 TD. The numbers don't jumps out at you but in that game Mason came out 2 or 3 times because of his hurt shoulder and he kept gutting it out.

Most Memorable Play/Moment: This one i am also going against the grain, for it is not a particular play its a moment. After the Tennessee Playoff game Ed Reed gave the Game Ball to O.J. Brigance, that showed a lot of class.

Breakout Season: Le'Ron McClain.

Best Contributor who Received Least Recognition: Jim Leonard, not only on the defense but he had some big Special Teams plays.

MVP: Ed Reed, 9 INTS, 3 TDS, enough Said.

Biggest Surprise: Joe Flacco, went from third string to AFC Championship Game.

Favorite Quote: “Here come the Ravens, the team nobody wants to play"--Ed Reed after the Wild Card Victory.

Team's Defining Moment: The Win at Dallas.

Favorite John Harbaugh Moment: Before the season Harbaugh said that he is creating a Dynasty, not a bad first season.
