a day of rest tomorrow for the ravens. they get ready for prime time yet again. sports director mark viviano joins us with more on the team. >> how are you doing, mary? it's monday night football. ravens will step into the national spotlight, with another chance to show the football world just how dominating the baltimore defense can be. so far this season, they are the best in the nfl. it's a long-standing ravens tradition. they are strong against opposing running backs, even the best of them, like houston's aryan foster, who was held to 49 yards, when the ranks beat the texans on sunday. ray lewis is the heartbeat of that defense. he started and upholds the position. and he talks about the mentality that it takes to be the top runstoppers in the

league. >> we were a very good tackling team. we don't let just one person make the tackle. we like seeing people get to the football. and coaches don't have to coach that. and i think that's the beauty of our team. coaches don't have to teach any of that. if you are out of shape, we're going to get you extra conditioning during practice and things like that. you have to tip your hat to our defense. they are playing aggressively. >> the ravens have allowed just one rushing touchdown this year. but they have allowed four touchdown passes. still, that's a total of five touchdowns in five games. and the ravens have allowed the fewest points. and the birds will be heavily favored when they face a rookie quarterback. monday night, see the ravens in primetime, here on wjz. our special coverage kicks off at 8:00. next hour, john harbaugh talks about the ravens' offense. and concerns about kicking too many field goals when they need t.d.s. plus, a long-time ravens
