The Harbaugh Bowl is just a few days away. The Ravens and 49ers are set to meet on the biggest stage in all of sports. The Ravens will need to contain Colin Kaepernick if they are to win on Sunday, but the 49ers will need to do the same with Joe Flacco.

Super Bowl Halftime Show Vs. Neil Diamond: Who Takes The Trophy For Better Entertainment?

For years, both Neil Diamond and the Super Bowl Halftime show have been giving us, let’s say, mild overproduction (read: glitzy, flashy, and potentially unnecessary). So who’s got the edge between these two cheesy industry mainstays?

Ravens Look To Shut Down 49ers’ Pistol Read Option

A few years ago, the wildcat formation took the league by storm. But the NFL quickly adapted and now that style of play is all but extinct. Now the league must find a way to defend the Pistol Read Option. This style of offense has catapulted San Francisco to the Super Bowl with the help of young star Colin Kaepernick. If Baltimore wants to hoist the Lombardi trophy on Sunday, they’ll need to shut their offense down. That’s easier said than done.

Aldon Smith Will Have Impact On Super Bowl, Even If Not On Stat Sheet

Aldon Smith has not recorded a sack in 5 games, and after recording 19.5 through 13 games, there is of course questions as to why the 49er’s single season sack king has failed to get to the quarterback as of late. An injured shoulder, and the absence of Justin Smith were a big part of it, and both of these issues have only gotten better, meaning that Aldon is primed to have another big day on Super Bowl Sunday, unless the Ravens decide to let another player beat them.

Ravens QB Joe Flacco Is An Elite Quarterback

Joe Flacco has been one of the most criticized quarterbacks in the history of the NFL. And he isn’t even 30 yet. That’s a pretty impressive feat. Probably not as impressive as beating Peyton Manning and Tom Brady in back to back weeks in order to clinch a Super Bowl berth. But it’s pretty close. Flacco shows up in big games and gets the job done. It’s what makes him elite.
