Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Torrey Smith has insisted that his side are still "the Ravens" in light of comments from Cleveland Browns cornerback Joe Haden.
John Harbaugh's side have started the season 3-4 and have struggled without the likes of Ed Reed and Ray Lewis, who left the club following their Super Bowl triumph earlier this year.
"I mean, I think it's safe to say," Smith told the Baltimore Sun. "It's not the same team. It's not like I'm going to take anything to him. We're still built the same, but it's not the same guys. That's just fact to it.
"It's not like we're going to take it like, 'He said this, they're not the same team,' because anybody can go out there and get beat any week. At the same time, we play the way we're capable of playing, we're still the Ravens and we'll get to that point and other teams will know it."
The Ravens cut safety Michael Huff and defensive lineman Marcus Spears earlier this week following their bye.
