This battle will determine game flow. It won't necessarily determine the final score, because the 49ers are so explosive offensively, but Baltimore maintaining the advantage here can put SF in choppy waters
I've watched their Rams game. To be honest, I don't see the dominant defense people been talking about them. There were times Stafford threw the ball to the middle and there was no Ravens in a gaping hole. Rams gashing them with 6-7 yds runs at times. I don't remember the Rams with a good run game the last 2 years. Are the Ravens overrated? Cause I don't see it. They are a good to decent defense, I don't see the dominant one people talking about.
time to show the league the blueprint for Lamar 😈. If there is one. Lol I think Lamar is a much better passer/processor than hurts
Contain Lamar and keep our Secondary covering until the whistle. Lamar has the potential to get picked. Mitchell out should make containing lamar easier.
Make no mistake Lamar is going to have success at times throwing and running. He's a level above guys like Hurts, Prescott, and Murray. Baltimore is really good on both sides of the ball and very well coached. I see people worrying about our run defense ranking. If we were ranked No.1 against the run coming in, Lamar Jackson will still have his moments where he will just overcome and out will the defense. The 49ers have two things going for them that have separated us from the pack and made them the favorites to win the Super Bowl. Our dominance comes from the fact that the team leads the NFL with the fewest turnovers given away on offense, and leads the NFL in takeaways on defense. If that holds true to form against the Ravens, then we will beat them.
Getting them momentum changing turnovers in games like this is what gives me the most hope of advancing to and winning the Super Bowl. Lamar Jackson and the Ravens is just one of the really good teams we have to beat to get the prize at the end.

Your score prediction is really close to mine - I think the ravens will score in garbage time to make it close but I think we will come out flying late in the second and early in the third to bust the game wide open.
Lamas is not a consistent passer. At one moment he will throw a 20-yrd dime to a tight window and in the next he'll miss a 10-yrd throw to an open receiver. The problem is that he seems to make his big plays in the biggest moments of the game.
So far Lamas has 6 games with less than 200 yards on the air but the Ravens have won all those games and in the last 3 games he has had less than 60% of completion but guess what....the Ravens won those 3 games.
We all know that Lamas is very dangerous with his legs but with his arm he is and always has been hit or miss but he makes plays in big moments.

McVay was destroying that defense with crossing routes. Queen and Roquan were pretty bad chasing receivers laterally and that opened the running game between the tackles.
LJ will give the Niners some headaches but he will turn the rock over, Int or fumble when he is harassed. Our D will start getting to him!!!!!! And Purdy is very good when blitzed and will do what he has been doing…………throw TD's……. LOL Anyway Go Niners!!!!!!!!!!
New DVOA commentary: Are you ready for the Christmas DVOA Bowl matching two of the top DVOA teams ever? It might be the best regular-season game since 2007 when the undefeated Colts played the undefeated Patriots! #FTTB#RavensFlockhttps://t.co/ZwLOqprs5A
