The Ravens are set in the kicking game. Justin Tucker has made more big kicks in the past two years than anybody, Sam Koch is pretty much always good for a 45 yards gross and 39 yards net average per season and Morgan Cox makes long snapping look easy.

The return game should be the best in the NFL. Jacoby Jones and Deonte Thompson are both dynamic returners, and Michael Campanaro should be good for 10 yards per punt return should he get the opportunity. He was fantastic at making the first defender miss in the preseason.

The coverage units had better be solid, considering how many special teams aces the Ravens employ. Trawick, Levine, Miles, Orr and McClellan all fit that description.
