2012 Ravens regular-season superlatives
As soon as the clock hit zero Sunday at Paul Brown Stadium and their regular season came to an end with a 23-17 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, the Ravens began to look ahead.
Before doing the same and devoting all our attention to the Ravens' first-round playoff matchup against the Indianapolis Colts this weekend, The Sun first looks back at the Ravens' 10-6 regular season.
As Pro Bowl running back Ray Rice pointed out last week, the Ravens dealt with a lot of injuries and a little of everything else this season. From a dominant start to a near late-season collapse, from big comebacks to blown leads, from on-field triumphs to off-the-field tragedy, here's a look at the best and worst of the Ravens' regular season.

Team MVP
If you're just focused on numbers, Ray Rice had his least productive season since his rookie year in 2008. However, while the rest of the offense battled inconsistency, Rice scored 10 touchdowns, was among the league leaders in all-purpose yards and earned another Pro Bowl berth. Jacoby Jones may have won the Ravens two key games with return touchdowns, but Rice remained the offense's most consistent and reliable performer.
