Re: Official Super Bowl Game Thread - Baltimore vs. SF
Prediction Time: Baltimore 31 San Fransisco 21
I just think it's more likely SF with Kaepernick makes crucial mistakes than Baltimore does. SF wins a Super Bowl, i have no doubt at all. Just not this year.
Re: Official Super Bowl Game Thread - Baltimore vs. SF
i want the 49ers to win (dont know why, maybe i guess ill never get over the ravens trashing the giants in their lone super bowl loss). but for some reason, i see the ravens winning it. im gonna say
Re: Official Super Bowl Game Thread - Baltimore vs. SF
I like the 49ers. They were my pick from earlier in the season, so I'm not jumping off the bandwagon.
I have a feeling' we are going to see the return of the bad Joe Flacco. The 49ers will return to playing great defense, and shut down the Ravens offense. Kapernick will have a big game, and be named MVP.
Re: Official Super Bowl Game Thread - Baltimore vs. SF
My head tells me to pick the niners but my instincts tell me to pick the Ravens. Ravens are the "team of destiny" and those teams never lose in the SB..
I also think their defense is well disciplined and will be able to stop the Niners pistol offense. They definitely won't have the running lanes like they did against GB and Atlanta. Ngata and Cody should eat up blocks and contain their gaps, they have good outside containment with players like Suggs, Kruger and the interior is set with Lewis and Ellerbe. Playing in a 3-4 defense, good defensive line play that eat their gaps and a good set of linebackers will do a good job against the niners offense.

Depends on how well the Ravens have adjusted. The Skins were gashing them with the Pistol. They couldn't stop Alfred Morris and the 20 yard crossing route. If the Niners can get the run game going early, I think its a sign of good things

I didn't watch the game but if I'm not mistaken that game was during a bad streak of the Ravens where they looked flat.
I just think the Ravens have all the vital components to stop that offense. Ngata is a great DL who'll penetrate his gap and some and Cody is a clog up the middle, not sure about their other DL. Niners O-line won't push around the Ravens front 7 the way they did against Green Bay and Atlanta. If the Ravens can control the LOS then they should be able to contain them.
Then you have 4 quality LB's of the Ravens in which I don't see the niners have much success of getting out of the edge of the fields against the Ravens 3-4 system. Seems like the perfect combination to stop the pistol. I expect Suggs and Kruger to be going after Kaepernick all night

I think the Niners do a lot of dump offs to the TE's to force Lewis's old ass into coverage which is not his strong suit. I think the hope will be the TE's can break some which would help loosen up the defense in other places. The Niners would probably be better off with a pass first approach, but is Kaepernick as well as he's played ready to be the primariy offense and not play off the run?
One thing i think will hurt SF is the lack of substitutions they make on defense. The Super Bowl's huge amount of excitement is draining, and the Niners may wind up earlier on sucking up too much energy since they don't sub in and out.
I also think the Ravens will be a calmer team, their Harbaugh looked much more relaxed than the 49ers.
Pretty much i like the talent better of the 49ers but a lot of the little things here and there i think favor the Ravens.

that is awesome, i dunno how professional it is. but she would get a job 10 seconds later
