Ray Lewis definitely did not like the 3-4 when he played in Baltimore.
But if this article is correct he did not complain.

So that is an encouraging statement.
I don't see Lewis as a finger pointer.
But I'm not sure I see him as the solution to what ails us, especially given the numbers he's hinting at.

The Ravens' defense last year restricted Lewis from running free, but he accepted his role and performed as best he could under the circumstances.
"It's tough, because you have to humble yourself and take coaching and do whatever they tell you to do," Lewis said. "Whether it takes away from your game or helps it, you just deal with it. That's what I did. It didn't alter how I prepared, it didn't alter my passion for the game. But at the same time, it alters how dominant I can be."
So that is an encouraging statement.
