Lewis won't rein in his style

The $25,000 fine that the NFL docked from Ray Lewis' paycheck for his helmet-to-helmet collision with Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Chad Ochocinco on Oct. 11 won't deter the Ravens middle linebacker from patrolling the middle of the field.

"The game is always going to play out," Lewis said earlier today. "That's what I do, just like what he does is catch the ball. I roam the middle of the field. My job is to be coming in there and delivering whatever blow there is. I don't think [anything] will change. He understands if he comes in there, what's going to go down."

Asked if the hit left an image with opponents who entertained visions of going over the middle, Lewis joked, "Yeah -- the image it left on my doggone checkbook. I'm not running by Chad [any]more."

Lewis reign in his style? What the hell is going on here, the NFL will have these guys wearing flags hanging from there belts soon. With the pass happy league that it already is it is starting to remind me of flag football already without tough players reigning in their style, we need more guys to play with a style like Ray Lewis!!!
