#nfl #football #peytonmanning #raylewis
The fact that Ray and the Ravens won 2 rings competing against the 2 greatest quarterbacks in human history in their prime in the same conference is impressive
And funnily enough both super bowls themselves were against kinda trash qb’s
Brady and Peyton are not the 2 Greatest ever, easily Top 10 though and were the Top 2 of this Era. They didn't have to face a Montana nor a Unitas nor an Otto Graham.
@@david-468 Collins for sure....I hate ck but I wouldn't say he was trash to that point
@@williammorrison6228 he really was for modern qbs, yeah his stats look good for qbs in general but not for that era there really needs to be like a WAR+ system for football like baseball
@@happybeingmiserable4668 you might have a case against peyton but Brady and those 7 rings says otherwise.
When Ray said to Peyton “you need to tell me straight up right now who made that call”! You could see the fear in Peyton’s laugh. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
#Rigged
He knows but he can’t bite the hand that feeds him
@@JamesAvila-xu7dsjus like the roman empire distracted its citizens w gladiators in todays time we have nfl nba etc
@@kobedagoat6395 I agree 💯
“Have another crab” 🦀 😂😂
Peyton spoke at a conference I was at years ago and he said no one ever hit him as hard as Lewis. He said Ray would lean on him as he got up and say awful things to him, but was always the first one to shake hands after the game and ask about the family.
Two pure competitors 🔥
THATS CRAZY HOW GOD IS SO GOOD HE MADE PEYTON COMPLETE THAT PASS ON RAY THEN HE MADE RAY WIN IT ALL AND GO OUT ON TOP YEARS LATER
The man was the epitome of an NFL hitman and the most feared
@Tyler great linebacker but please don't be comparing him to Ray Lewis, Lewis hit harder and more often and his longevity speaks volumes, Willis only played for 8 year's, that's only half of Lewis career, no comparison
@Tyler are you trying to say Willis was the better middle linebacker? Not even close, Ray Lewis was voted by his peers, coaches, ex players as the most dominating, intimidating, hardest hitting, best linebacker from the last twenty years, the measurements of a great player is by how he's viewed by his peers and Ray Lewis is also said by many NFL alum that he was the greatest middle linebacker of all time, Willis was good, but he's not considered as one of the all time greats, sorry dude, facts speak for themselves
Ray Lewis was the Peyton Manning of Defense. GOAT
6:31: "For a stadium that lacked electricity for 35 minutes, there's no shortage of it now." What a fantastic call. Providing commentary really is an art, and it's so hard to be as good as these guys at the top are.
That was an epic line, for sure.
That’s Gerry Sandusky he’s been calling ravens games for ages.
@@danadamczyk3295good lord that’s an unfortunate name
Ya it's almost like a comedians ability to be quick-witted with their comments
That game with no TD’s was honestly one of the greatest playoff games I’ve ever seen
Yup as a ravens fan that game still haunts me to this day wonder what could’ve been after 18 years lol
@@AmirKhan-rh6jjYes and the ravens offense was also very lackluster as well I mean they missed a toss heap td in the end zone in the 2nd qtr. but McNair waited too long and forced it too late and it would have been 10-6 Baltimore
Yeah, that’s what fans want to see… not.
@@wildwoodandonyx It just depends on what you appreciate. Personally, I love seeing that chess battle. It reminds me of the 2019 Super Bowl, one of the tensest games I've ever watched (and some people _hate_ that SB)
One of the best games I ever seen .
The intensity Ray Lewis shows just in this interview alone about past plays, and games is just incredible. You don’t see many like him
During his playing career quite a few people thought it was an act. I don't know how someone could watch this interview and see his eyes light up and him stand up when Peyton brought up a certain play and still think it was an act. Ray just gets energy from football in a way I've never seen before.
This boy can only beat with his legs😂😂😂 The gems in this are too good for this world man
1:41 5:26 Got to love how intense Ray Lewis still is, even a decade later. He's so passionate about these memories that he can't help but stand up as they're talking about them.
It’s a shame he can’t remember anything about that time he helped kill two people.....
@@brianjungen4059 if only people could constantly punsh u for pass mistakes shame aint it
@@brianjungen4059 Really though? He was just present, he wasn't the one actually fighting or doing the stabbing. And the two who did actually commit the crime were both acquitted on self-defense grounds by a jury. But tell me more about how he "helped" kill two people.
His white suit “just happened” to disappear and he was heard saying “someone’s going to take the fall for this because my career ain’t ending this way”. Easy to claim self defense when the other folks in the fight are dead. Sorry you can worship this guy all you want but not me.
Killing two people is more than a “mistake”. 🙄🤦♂️
I loved that Ray accused Peyton pulling the plug (lights out) at that Super Bowl......lol
Payton should have responded with the fact Ray Lewis got away with murder
@@scottweber3077 Imagine if Peyton slowly pulls out a knife, right after he said that about the lights lmao
He didn't accuse him but he knows he's from new Orleans and probably knows who did it
@@scottweber3077 You know there was no murder, right?
Ray was undeniably a savage, Dude hit his teammate with a flying knee immediately after winning the Super Bowl 😂.
A psycho
@@Frankincensedjb123Yea we get it buddy.
Sounded worse cause he was mic’d up
Time stamp?
@@NaitsirhcNojSiwelNot on murder.
Ray Lewis was one the greatest NFL players ever. So sorry to hear that he lost his son, Ray Lewis III. Thoughts, prayers & condolences for Ray Lewis & the rest of the family.
I miss the NFL. This current Kneelers Football League makes no sense.
@@CooManTunes Agree. Truth was Kap couldn’t play well at all. He wasn’t worth the headache & burned a bridge with his GF taunting Ray Lewis & the Ravens owner with a racist IG post. Then he threw a fit at the workout because he knew he couldn’t play & finally flamed out at Raiders camp. I would’ve respected him more if he’d worked on becoming a good QB & competed for QB jobs.
Your thoughts and prayers should be with the families of the two people Ray Lewis murdered in Atlanta in 2000.
@@FormerHumanX Ray Lewis didn’t kill anyone. I’m familiar with the case. The 2 men who did go to trial claimed self defense & were found not guilty. The 2 men who were killed started the fight & hit one of Ray’s group with a champagne bottle. Ray pleaded to an obstruction charge for leaving the scene & turned around his life before he made bail & never got into any kind of trouble again.
@FormerHumanX you're a 🤡
Ray Lewis looking at him like I need to blitz him now. That energy was still there, “gotta get him” 😂 love it
Diehard steelers fan for 20 years. But man seeing these two legends together talking about their glory days almost brings tears to my eyes. Phenomenal players and masterminds of the game from two different sides of the football.
Same, I’m a diehard Steelers fan and man seeing these two Reminisce bout their battles was dope, made me think bout how we got them in epic battles and how great the competition was 🙌 I miss those days
Best rivalry in football! Some of the best games I’ve ever watched…
Because you can't play the game that way anymore. QB, yes. But defensively, the NFL castrated the defense. You won't see this EVER again.
Huge Ravens fan and I definitely have a soft spot for Steelers that played in 2000-2010 era
@@bamboosho0t can't say "ever", change always happens and when goodell is no longer commisioner rules can be not as strict
I hope Peyton just keep putting out his video production, interviews, analytics, comedy, whatever he does, he's the best!
Not only was Ray Lewis an incredible Hall of Fame player, but he was an incredible leader! The way he talks to the defense on the sideline in the huddle is so inspirational and motivating. I would go to war with Ray any day of the week and twice on Sunday💯🐐
Ray Lewis, by his own words, didn't just walk onto the field and proclaim greatness. He didn't just go out there and "play". He studied, he spent hours upon hours understanding the game like a nuclear scientist. Greatness at the highest levels of football are always part intellectual.
Ah Athletes get bad rap. At that level, Pros, you are intelligent.
Growing up as a Colts fan, my favorite player will FOREVER be Peyton Manning but my second favorite player always was Ray Lewis. The rivalry they had and the chess match between the leader of the offense and leader of the defense, so cool man.
Blah blah blah

My favorite MLB of all time if I had a fantasy all time MADDEN TEAM I’m playing Lewis at MLB nothing against the other worthy names but Lewis is different
Why? Because you just saw this video?
My favorite Ray Lewis play of all time in my mind was in San Diego where Lewis came through the line and zapped the SD running back to end the game. That play is etched in my mind. There was nothing that could have stopped Lewis coming through both lines to tackle the RB.
Still remember that play like it was yesterday. That man was just built different
He later said that he just closed his eyes and hoped for the best
This really should have a billion views. 2 of the greatest of all time to play the game.
Watching sportsball is a mindless waste of time. Part of the reason the operators were able to take control of this country and turn it into shitshow it is today is by slowly engineering the unwashed masses to care so much about a bunch of morons throwing and catching a stupid ball for a living. Stop worshipping and idolizing these athletes. There’s nothing to most of them…
They dont know what good content is . They dont what these 2 mean to the game . I can watch stuff like this all day
@@leonrodriguez1714 It’s just a stupid game. Who are you to say they don’t know what good content is? People who don’t care to watch sports are usually doing stuff to improve themselves in some aspect of their lives. Watching sportsball is a mindless waste of time. You’ve been brainwashed to care about other grown men throwing and catching a stupid ball for a living. The riffraff care about sportsball.
Heck no! Peyton wasn't great.
@@truthserum3960 u dont know football then
I dont think there will ever be a middle LB as good as Ray Lewis or Kueckly ever again. That was the peak. They literally were QBs of the defense. You won't see that anymore because of the rule changes and value placed on the position.
@A Fùcking Bird for sure, the Wagner disrespect is real.
@@AFuckingBird he was never really the face of the defense like Ray or Luke thats why I didnt say him.
@@mikebrase5161 hes in the Patrick Willis category for me. Great player but not a general.
Most NFL teams don’t quake in their boots when they hear the name of Bobby Wagner. Now Ray Lewis, Patrick Willis, Luke Kuechly definitely became house hold names.
LK played only 9 years gimme a break
Ray Lewis' Madden Intro still gets me hyped for everything!
I had the amazing pleasure of sponsoring Ray for a sports nutrition product. Had the chance to work with him many times, including at his home. This man is built...incredible. Wasn't like a bodybuilder, nor would you want to be. He was thick, moved like a panther...limber, viscious. And this was him sitting down at his couch and just walking around like a normal person. He was so chill and nice. One of the best periods of my life.
So you paid him?
Nice.
Just a couple of legends casually reminiscing on each other’s greatness. 🥂
Two legends who were also the greatest players at their position. Peyton Manning one of the greatest QB’s of all time and Ray Lewis one of the greatest LB’s of all time. They got there because they outworked and out studied everyone else when it came to preparation. Insanely Disciplined and mentally tough. They are champions!!!
So nice to see two outstanding professionals be able to reminisce about their careers like this. So sorry for Ray's loss of his son.😢 It puts into perspective what's important in this life. Peace.
The best! The Five field-goal game was heartbreaking. That was the Steve McNair year and the Ravens were 13-3.
That was the Best Ravens Defense (2006) to never get to the Super Bowl
Wish we had more guys like these two legends. The game was different in their primes. It was better football than anything we have in today’s game.
If you watched Ray in the early 00's, he definitely lost a step or two at the end of his career. However, even after his prime years, Ray's presence alone at middle backer commanded so much respect from opposing teams and teammates. Watching the game, you couldn't take your eyes off #52. Ray carried an aura on the football field that will never be replicated. Very thankful I was able to watch him and several others on that defense put their heart into something they were extremely passionate about. The game of football.
Two of the greatest players of all time. Love to hear their insights and see the respect they have for one another as competitors.
I always wondered if Ray was going to have brain injury issues given the physical manner he played the game and the long career he had, but he seems to be perfectly fine. No visible loss of motor function at all and he looks healthy and in shape even over a decade after he retired. Now that I think about it, he was the one hitting, not getting hit. The guy never lost a step. Even to the day he retired, he was the baddest mfr on that field.
For a man who cut someone's head off, he seems to be fairly well adjusted.
@@elbob17 He was unanimously found not guilty and the prosecutor was nearly charged with purgory and misconduct for the illegalities he commited while prosecuting this case. He did not do it.
Because he had great tackling form.
Wow! At 1:48 Lewis looks like he's ready to blitz Manning....IN THE RESTURANT!
As a Bronco fan that 2012 playoff loss to B more ranks right up there as the most gut wrenching, heart breaking losses. Credit to Lewis and the Ravens.
It was the first broncos game I watched from start to finish and to this day I still hate the ravens bc of that playoff game
@@MileHighBroncosNuggets I thought the Broncos had won the game in regulation so I went out to run some errands. I turned on the radio and I was just infuriated by how it ended. Probably the worst loss since the 97 playoff loss to Jacksonville
I’m a colts fan and was rooting for the broncos not only cause we lost to that same ravens team the week before also Peyton is my favorite player ever .. when they lost in double OT in that fashion it’s no bullshit on of the worst losses I’ve experienced
@@MileHighBroncosNuggets lol remember watching the game at a Sports Bar in Virginia and seeing all these fake Broncos fans there with Manning Jerseys and how pissed they were at the Ravens, remember one chick yelling, "I fucking hate the Ravens." Few Ravens fans then yelled, "Time to find a new bandwagon!"
Baltimore knows how you feel. The previous year in the AFC championship against the Patriots. Lee Evans drops an easy touchdown catch that would have won the game and sent them to the superbowl. We send out Billy cundiff to make a chip shot fg and send the game to overtime. He shanked it. Back to back gut wrenching plays that stopped the Ravens from going all the way. I still hate Lee Evans and Billy cundiff lol
That intro to Rays highlights gave me goosebumps. 💪🏾
Living in Denver I never knew how good of a comedian Peyton was until he signed with the Broncos
i suggest all of you go watch the 2006 playoff game mentioned in the video (15-6 colts). one of the greatest chess matches in NFL history
Was at that game, only playoff game I’ve been too
The miracle at mile high was better
As a Ravens' fan I both loved, and hated that game. Watching them make change after change in response to one another was just a masterclass in football. But it was 2006 Ravens' football and we didn't have an offense.
It certainly was, but rumor has it Steve McNair (who was brought in for the sole reason to win THIS game), was out drinking the night before. Giving up only field goals to that Colts team was unreal...and it hurt to lose.
@@flammingdragon 2 completely different games, both great for their own reasons
Love Peyton. He is so perfect hosting these flashback memories.
Love the respect these two have for one another. Two football legends. Loved watching them growing up
Sad those 2 young men can't enjoy as you did...as they are dead!
@@gregtaylor113 what are you talking about? Lol
@@corneliuslove7952 ...its called double homicide! Lewis is a hypocrite and a fraud.
@@corneliuslove7952 ray lewis killed 2 fellas apparently
Ray was just unreal, next to L.T. and Singeltary and, this is even debatable becasue that 2000 Ravens team is the best defensive team in NFL history, but he may very well be the greatest leader of men in NFL history.
Mutual respect at 100
I got to say it, this was a excellent interview. Always love listening to Peyton's and Ray Lewis. There's so much that they have to say that a lot of times we didn't know, but their interpretation of the game is so intellectual. And these two are Hall of Famers. I can only thank the producers of Omaha for sharing this episode with us. It's a special one
Two of the GOAT
This is the best episode yet I'm crying, I'm crying Peyton Manning and Ray Lewis need a TV show😂😂😂😂
2 of the greatest showing so mush respect to each other.
The that these 2 LEGENDS still look great at their age is awesome.
Love these two guys as players and human beings. Tons of respect for them both as favorite QB and favorite Defensive player. The games they played against each other were always great IMO. See the respect they show each other is why I'm a football fan. Thank you for the video clip loved every second of it.
Ray is truly one of the best story tellers in football.
I know right? He sure told a great story to the Atlanta police after being involved in stabbing 2 men to death!
@@pirtatejoe2x Superbowl Champion, 2x Defensive Player of the Year! WOOOOO
watching someone as passionate and giving of himself to something like ray lewis always motivates me
Watching legends reflect and talk with so much respect is just so awesome to see.
Love these two. So much respect shown to each other it’s awesome
This is what respect is among men.
seeing and feeling these 2 guys respect for one another is a beautiful thing
..wait that was it?! I could watch this for hours! Great stuff!
It's an episode on Peytons places espn plus cannot remember but I think it's on season 1 maybe 2 not sure
You need a life. Try working with the poor. Be useful
90s kids childhood right here.. the good ole days when the NFL had some dawgs!
The respect that Ray has for Peyton...
I like how Ray's hits look brutal, but also safe at the same time
Bro...Ray Lewis talking with the NFL Films music playing, was getting ME hyped
My all time favorite clip of Ray Lewis is when Chad Johnson tried to block him. Great stuff.
Two great men, on and off the field.
My 2 favorite players of all time right there. Ray and Peyton. Doesnt get Much better
Kinda crazy how that catch at 2:36 you can see the tip of the ball hit the ground mid catch. Replay has changed the game so much.
A former Marine put it perfectly. He said if he was in a fight the one person he would want on his side was Lawrence Taylor. He also said if he needed a General to lead his platoon it would be Ray Lewis.
Payton and Lewis are a 1st class act..2 of the greatest ever..
This was awesome! I could listen to these 2 men talk for hours about football, life, or just about anything. Smart, respectful men off/on the field.
When Ray Lewis and Peyton Manning got old I was relatively young compared to them but it make me realize that even greatness can't withstand father time
Deion said it best there should be an upper room in the HOF, for the great ones, both these guys would be in that room.
I feel blessed to have been able to watch these two men play in their primes. Ray man, you’re my favourite player of all of the great players to ever play. Thank you for the inspiration.
Two of the greatest ever at their position. I love seeing videos like this, of warriors reminiscing on their battles
2 of their greatest perspectives positions ever
They both look happy and healthy.
Two great players.
This was great! One of my favorite PM interviews ever!!! Mad respect right there!
As a diehard Patriots fan for 30+ years I’ve seen some really good games, watched us have really bad years and got to watch the GOAT for 20, but I loved watching our games vs these two guys. We had the Colts’ number most of the time but the damn Ravens were NOT afraid of coming into Foxboro in January. I hated when the Pats had play them but loved to watch those games. Respect the hell out of Ray Lewis. Those eyes pre-snap, reminded me of Mike Singletary. Guy was an absolute beast and a very, very smart player
Peyton’s 3-1 in the afc championship games against brady
@@ZuluGamingSeries3-2
“I’mma machine jerk!” 😂😂😂😂😂 I love that clip
That was such an intense interview. I remember it well and I felt like I was there. Ray Lewis was the greatest!
Can you imagine talking to Ray and him being that intense during the whole conversation. Lol
As a die-hard 49ers fan for over 30 years, I still believe if we ran the ball on that last play with Frank Gore we would have won. However, Ray Lewis was a joy to watch. And it truly was one of the greatest Super Bowls of all time.
I DK if you guys would've made it to the endzone like that, but for sure would've been a better call than that kapernick throwing it
@Tyler fair point, Kap could've audibled or looked at another receiver though. It's on the OC, but QBs that have a good pedigree for the game would understand and make good decisions as well.
@Tyler so his receiver is covered, and you are saying he couldn't throw it to another receiver? He has no responsibility over the play whatsoever? If you truly believe that then... Oh well
Horrible play calling, but Crabtree got held on that last play. It was bad, and the refs choked on their whistles
The mutual respect is obvious and amazing between them.
You can see two competitors respect each other. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Loveeeee !!!!!! This ! The passion Ray Lewis played with every game was Extraordinary !! Two of the Best Leaders of the Game reminicing ❤❤❤❤ Love it !!
Two 🐐 I was very excited about watching
Another classy production from #18.
You can see Ray gettin intense just talking about past moments. This man idles at 90mph 😂
thank you both for years of awesome games and many wonderful nights. respect to 2 of the greatest ever.
In my mind... Ray Lewis is and always be a perfect Football Player. I don't think you can get stronger, faster, or play with more passion than Ray.
Yeah, and if you need a person to murder someone you don't like, Ray has experience in that too!
@@rickb3288 classic opinion from someone too stupid to read court documents
@@rickb3288 There was no murder lol
Great video yall. Miss watching those old scraps.
That was a great convo between two legends of the game. 💯
Peyton put MVP caliber video in youtube for us to see for FREE , Thank you GOAT !
One of the greatest “personal” rivalries EVER in ALL of sports. Peyton vs Lewis. I, like Peyton, have massive respect for ray, and I’m a die hard colts fan. #fortheshoe
i used to split my screens and watch these match ups. These are my two favorite players of all time ! I used to watch these battles
I love how Ray mentioned the truth, Kap is not a throwing QB, a real qb.
Can we plz get their own version of The Last Dance... A Ray Lewis Docuseries will be epic as well as Peyton
Ray Lewis is intensity+ personified.
i thought he was going to throw the crabs in the floor and tackle peyton right then and there.
@@randallfloyd4476lol... He started creeping up out of that seat. I woulda been like, "Can I get the check, please!?"
Taurus sh*t .... He personifies a Taurus
I love watching players talk about the game, especially Legends like Manning and Lewis.
Two of the best minds and competitors the sport has ever seen, tremendous respect and a good friendship they have Both went out on top too
I don't think Lewis was kidding when he almost went across the table to find out who turned the lights out. Has any other stadium anywhere ever had that happen, much less in a Super Bowl?
Ray is easily top 5 ILB of all time.
Ray is one of the most intense players since Wilbur Marshall and Dick Butkus
Love both of these men, they were absolute greats on and off the field.
Rey wouldn’t be able to play today he hits to hard
Did the Ravens not have a Defensive Coordinator? It looks like Ray Lewis was calling all the plays. 😂
He called a lot of audibles... Just like Peyton on offense. DCs trusted his judgement, part of why he was also so dominant, he could diagnose plays and adjust at the line
