Borges: Ray Lewis dishes out advice on how Tom Brady can be beaten

BLOOMINGTON, Minn. — Al Davis had a theory on why teams and organizations succeed or fail, and it always started from the same place.

The top.

“A fish rots from the head,” Davis used to say. “So does a football team.”

In the case of the Patriots it’s obvious where the top is. It’s inside Tom Brady’s head. But how does an opponent get inside it?

Ray Lewis is one of the few defenders who can argue he got the best of Brady when it counted most, and he thinks the same way as Davis did.
