Defensive tackle Haloti Ngata. A one-man wrecking crew on the Ravens defensive front, Ngata is not only the most dominant defensive player on the Ravens but perhaps the NFL. He leads the Ravens with four sacks and ranks third in tackles. How impressive has Ngata been this season? He is fourth on the latest NFL MVP list by Sports Illustrateds Peter King.

Middle linebacker Ray Lewis. While Ngata has been the teams best player, the Ravens might not be 5-2 without Lewis. He made the game-clinching interception in Pittsburgh and forced the game-turning fumble in overtime against Buffalo. The Ravens can still count on the 35-year-old linebacker when the game is on the line.
