The Ravens Star on the D-Line in the Ravens Base 3-4 D is DT/DE Haloti Ngata from the Quack Attack Eugene. The 49ers Star on the D-Line in the Niners in their Base 3-4 D is DT/DE Justin Smith. Both O-Lines know who they are and what both D-Lines are capable of doing and this will be a good ole fashion Donnybrook in the Trenches. Remember the Base 3-4 up front is Two Defensive Ends and a Nose Tackle which is over the Center and the Pigskin.

The 49ers know what Number to look for as #93 the aforementioned Ngata is the Key to the Ravens upfront. He is an Immovable Object an extremely fast and nimble for his Size. A Disruptor at the point of Attack as the Ravens will sometimes move him to NT to give the Opposing O-Line something to think about. The Leaders in the Depth are Arthur Jones and Terrence "Mount" Cody. Cody is a Huge Run Stopper and Jones is solid of the Edge in Run or Pass (Brother Pats Top Rookie DE/OLB Chandler Jones). Kemoeatu (Brother Chris a Former Steelers OG) and McPhee are solid as well and remember these Lineman are there to take on Blockers to keep the Ray Lewis and the Ravens Backers Free to make plays. That's how a 3-4 is set up to work.

The Ravens O-Line knows is starts and ends with Right Defensive End Justin Smith. Even with Partially Torn Triceps he is a Factor because he is on the Field. The Smith also has a Partner in Crime in Ray McDonald who is also someone to pay attention to and reminds me of SKOLnation's DE/DT Kevin Williams. They are a 3-4 Base Defense and they not only take on Blockers for Niners Backers like Willis and Bowman to make plays they also disrupt what your trying to do before it gets to those Backers. As you see on the Depth Chart there is no one behind Smith because the Backup LDE Jean Francois can move over to RDE. Can the Ravens contain the Justin Smith as he lines up on the Same Side with 49ers Sack Master Aldon Smith?
The Edge: EVEN as Both Ngata (reportedly playing with partially Torn MCL since Week 10) and Justin Smith (Partially Torn Triceps since Week 13) cancel each other out and its all about the Backers in this one.
360 Degrees: 49ers DE Ray McDonald from Pahokee Florida HS in the Everglades (Ravens WR Anquan Boldin was a Star QB at Pahokee HS them switched to WR at FSU 'Noles after a Torn ACL) and caught passes from Former Panther Chris Weinke at FSU) are Alumni of the Annual "MUCK Bowl"...Pahokee HS vs Belle Glades FL Central HS.
