Again no one said anything about the 9ers not being legit or not giving the Ravens a run for their money.
I will say it again, it is all about match-up.

We deal in facts here. Did you know the Ravens offense has not even punted the ball once in 3 games? When was the last time you came a cross a team which could do that? Oh and in that Rams game, did you know in all of the Ravens' 6 drives, they scored a TD in every single one of them? Talking about efficiency. In other words, we are not talking about hyperbole here.
Do not put words in my mouth, I never made the 9ers seem like they were 1-10, you said that. But, just because you are 10-1, that doesn't mean no team could beat you. Instead, you just get over emotional about it .
And save that whole speech about mental toughness. I have watched the Panthers game no less than 4 times. Again nobody said anything about the 9ers not being mentally tough. But, you are harping on the wrong thing here. Just because you have mental toughness, it doesn't mean you can't get beaten. You are totally missing the point here, is all about match-up.
Is really about time you get into your head that the 9ers D have a problem with mobile QBs or may be most teams do. Lamar Jackson is not only fast, he is not small neither as far as mobile QBs go, he is not running to slide, he wants max yards and to score on you. He is what you call a match-up nightmare.
On top of that, it is not like he can't throw neither. 24 passing TDs 5 INTs to date, that is in fact better than Jimmy G's record although Jimmy has thrown for more yards.
That is my opinion and I have already repeatedly said I could only pray I am wrong. If I am wrong, then fantastic as it would mean we would have beaten them. But, at this very juncture, based on what I've seen to date, I can only fear for the worst.
Just because a team haven't punted in 3 games doesn't mean they're unbeatable. So what if they scored in all first 6 drives. That's awesome, yes it's unheard of. But guess what? The Niners are not the Rams. The Niners defense is way better than that one-man defense the Rams have. You CANNOT use one game to dictate who's better in a matchup. You have to look at the whole body of work throughout the season, and since I watched all of the Niners games and some of the Ravens games due to my brother being a hardcore Ravens fan. I say we matchup pretty well against the mighty Ravens. My brother even admitted that his Ravens haven't faced a complete team like the 49ers. He brags about LJ and his offense but worries a sh!t load about our defense and KS's brilliant play calling on the offensive side of the ball.
You fear for the worst because of the beatdown they gave the Rams, but forget that we put a beatdown on a playoff team with an elite QB the night before.
Our beatdown would've been more worst if KS decided to pass the ball deep into the 4th quarter like the Ravens did. Don't forget that also.
My advice, don't get defeated so easily before the game is played. Have faith and trust that this team is going to put their best foot forward and that's all we can ask for. Like JD said. They still gotta play us too.
