Ancient Olympic wrestling?
They beat the Philadelphia Eagles all by themselves!! 😛

It seemed to me that the ravens made adjustments in their approach and it was this which ultimately proved successful.
The Patriots lost their main cover guy in middle of second quarter. No adjustments were needed. Simple put, Patriots could no longer defend a bevy of talented receivers. However, indeed they also ran better in second half and did not beat themselves the Matt Ryan did against 49ers. I for one do not think Ravens are the superior team, but I am picking them to win nonetheless because teams of destiny usually outperform favorites. Also 49ers gave up 396 passing yards to a lesser offense than the Ravens'! It may be a close game for a while, but I think Ravens will explode in 2nd half!

Talib isn't that much of a difference maker and a lot of big plays were over the middle. You are a joke if you think that the Falcons offense, with a HOF tight end, Turner the Burner and the best wide out tandem in the game, is lesser than the Ravens Offense. Its the Ravens defense, like so many years before, that will give them the edge in this game as the 49ers and the Ravens haven't been the same defenses as they were in the middle of the season... The niners got worse and the ravens got better.

Stop with the ad hominem attacks. Whether you think I am a joke or not keep it to yourself and debate the point already and not me. I don't give a rats ass what you think of or any of the others like you who resort to such childish trash. Up to the point Talib was injured Ravnes had done nothing! Compare the before and after stats. Once Talib was off the field things got way easier for Ravens both over the middle and on the sides. Much harder to pass when you have a wonderful defensive back at top of his game in Talib on field. That's all.

The difference was the way they played, nothing to do with Talib. When you run, run pass on every set of downs even crappy coverage teams can appear to be good. NE was shown up in the second half and would have been even with Talib on the Field. You want to know why? Because they were not prepared for the Ravens to attack the way they did in the second half, the adjusted to stop the run and then got blasted by the pass.

I will post my opinion of you if I want because all you add to this forum is emotional trite with no real knowledge of the game. You are a pretender who is desperately trying to appear knowledgeable about football.... Say hi to coach Gary Payton for me, will ya?

Even your retarded statements about Harbaugh and Kaepernick, Tom calling you a joke isn't so much an ad hominem attack. He's just making a factual statement.

Well here we go. Personally, I think Kaepernick's going to go off.

Its gonna suck to be remembered as the qb who threw the first 49ers superbowl INT... Especially if he never wins a superbowl.

Kaepernick had Crabtree for the first down with enough time for one play before the field goal at the end of the half. Time for Alex Smith.
