As its Friday and the Game is upon us soon the Ravens have arguably the Best Ball-Hawking Center Fielder easily in the Last Twenty Years in Ed Reed and 49ers QB Kaepernick has to be aware of that. The 49ers have Two Hard-Hitting Safeties that have had plenty of Opposing Wide Outs come across their Coverage with Alligator Arms and they still get tapped. But this Match Ups will be about whose Corners can step up and play well.
RAVENS Secondary vs 49ERS Secondary
RAVENS Starters
LCB Corey Graham
SS Bernard Pollard
FS Ed Reed
RCB Cary Williams
Key Nickel Corners
CB Chykie Brown
CB Jimmy Smith
The Ravens Corners have stepped up in the Absence of LaDarius Webb (Torn ACL in Week 8 on IR) and Jimmy Smith (missed Last 6 Weeks of Regular Season due to Sports Hernia) and have not lost a Step. Both Corey Graham and Cary Williams have played tremendously and have picked off both Manning and Brady in Winning Time. They will be matched up against Michael Crabtree and Randy Moss along with TE Vernon Davis and the must make Kaepernick be dead on with the Pigskin. Both Safeties Reed and Pollard are Dynamic as Reed closes on Pigskins like an Eagle trying to get its Catch. Pollard is of the Hard-Hitting Variety that would rather play Backer as he supports the Run. The Nickel Corners have also played well in Brown and Smith who has come back and played Nickel and Special Teams. This is a Group Battle-Tested through the Best Sunday Signal-Callers in the game.
49ERS Starters
RCB Carlos Rogers
SS Donte Whitner
FS Dashon Goldson
LCB Tarrell Brown
Key Nickel Corner
CB Chris Culliver
CB Tremaine Brock
If the 49ers have any Achilles Heel on that Defense it is definitely their Secondary. Not the Safeties as they are very Good except Whitner in Coverage as he is way more comfortable in or close to the Box. Goldson is equally adept in playing Center Field or in the Box but an excellent Cover Safety. If you have to pick a Corner to pick on in this one it would have to be Carlos Rogers. Rogers will most likely get Anquan Boldin and the Opposite Corner Tarrell Brown will get Torry Smith. Both Corner were lit up in the NFC Championship Game by the Peach Drop 3...Roddy White, Julio Jones, and TE Tony Gonzalez. Can they rise up and stop the Ravens Passing Attack and Ordinary Joe's Cannon and Accuracy?
I know this there will be some Collisions worth noting as you have Pollard, Whitner, and Goldon on that Back End and who cares about the Fed Ex Envelope as its time to get a Ring.
