Earlier this month, defensive tackle Terrence Cody was indicted for animal cruelty and possession of drug paraphernalia. He was released by Baltimore as soon as the investigation began.
"Things come in waves and we certainly took a crash here last year,China Jerseys Cheap," Bisciotti acknowledged. "There isn't a lot you can do. We are a team and an organization that cares obviously about our reputation and when it takes a hit, then you examine what you do.
"John's success in the season at least bolstered me up and evened out my temperament a little bit and reminded me of the good things," Bisciotti said. "I am off suicide watch. I am stable mentally and I'll probably be your owner for a while."
"Someone that has domestic abuse in their background, it's going to be tough for them to be considered a Raven," Newsome said.
Bisciotti and the Ravens came under fire for putting their support behind Rice until the video came out.
"But in order to take a hit to your reputation,Cheap NFL Jerseys 2018, you have to have a pretty good reputation to start with,Clark Griswold Jersey, and we did. Now it's about proving it was an aberration, and we believe that to be the case."
The Rice saga has molded some of the qualities general manager Ozzie Newsome looks for when adding a draft pick or free agent to the team.
Five Ravens were arrested in 2014, including Rice, who was charged with assault in February after punching his then-fiancee in an elevator. Rice was released by the team after a video of the assault became public.
But problems persist.
"We all agreed that we should support Ray Rice in February. And, we all agreed that morning that we couldn't. I don't regret either of those decisions," said Bisciotti with a self-assured tone.
Rice's domestic violence issue was only part a wave of misdeeds by some of his players.
OWINGS MILLS, Md. (AP) — Steve Bisciotti sums up 2014 simply as his "worst year" as owner of the Baltimore Ravens. The team was engulfed in off-the-field problems — most notably the arrest and subsequent release of running back Ray Rice.
"What John did and the way he handled the coaches and the players was masterful," Bisciotti said. "With all of those distractions, we had to win the last game of the year to get into the playoffs and we did it. Then we went and beat Pittsburgh, where we were 0-for-3 as a franchise" in the playoffs.
Ravens security director Darren Sanders was charged in December with a sexual offense after he allegedly groped a woman while she escorted him to his car at the team's home stadium.
For Bisciotti, all of it overshadowed Baltimore going 10-6,Cheap Jerseys For Sale, winning a playoff game in Pittsburgh and nearly upsetting the eventual Super Bowl champion New England Patriots.
"It was my worst year as an owner," Bisciotti said Tuesday. "I had 14 good years and then I had an absolutely crappy year."
He gave credit to Harbaugh for getting the team to the postseason in spite of the off-field issues.
"We've been able to tap sources in the community that have furthered our knowledge, our sensitivity, our responsibility," he said. "I do think that for the Ravens and society in general, it's a positive. It's our obligation to turn that negative into a positive. I'm very encouraged in that all we have to do is be aware and be sensitive and we will do a job that Baltimore's proud of going forward."
All of this has taken much of the satisfaction Bisciotti derived from a season in which they reached the playoffs for the sixth time in seven years under coach John Harbaugh.
Toward that end, Ravens president Dick Cass said, "In the past, the process we have in place has worked a lot better than it did this past year. If you look at the five-year period leading up to that, 2009-13, we had three arrests."
"We will wait until the investigation is complete," Bisciotti said. "We believe in Darren,China Soccer Jerseys, so we're all very supportive of him. The sign is still on his door. We'll address that when we get some more information. Right now,Thurman Thomas Bills Jersey, we don't have any."
Bisciotti hopes the action the team took in the wake of Rice's arrest and release will pay off in the future.
