Baltimore is also 1-4 on the season, with their win coming over the rival Steelers in Week 4.

The over/under for this game is 43.5 total points. 500 at any point during the season and reach the playoffs.
But you also have to wonder when it becomes time to just let the younger guys play and see what they can do, or when it becomes time to make more and more changes to see what works before the season comes to an end. “So, it doesn’t really cross my mind too often”.
This will be the first time the 49ers and Ravens have faced each other in the regular or postseason since Super Bowl XLVII.
Baltimore won two Super Bowls behind a defense that featured Lewis clogging the middle and Ed Reed keeping tabs on the back end.
Baltimore is a three-point favorite in this game against the 49ers.
Both the 49ers and Ravens have sent three opponents ontoplayer-of-the-week honors following their matchups.
It won’t be easy stopping this attack, but if the Ravens defense can keep it from having success, they should shut down the 49ers offense.
The Ravens are a team that’s been riddled with injuries.
Ravens coach John Harbaugh on Friday laughed off a report that he was a leading candidate to be the next football coach at the University of Southern California. “Yeah, Torrey is still a very good player”. Other than that, I’m not involved in that at all.

“I’ll always have a little bit of a chip on my shoulder from that game, ” he said.
Their final four plays, though, gained 2 yards. We were in the huddle saying, We re about to have a parade and about to be Super Bowl champions. Wright had his contract terminated by the San Francisco 49ers on Saturday.
Flacco’s first game without Steve Smith Sr. this season was not awful, but it was not anything to rave about either. “We’ve got to step up”, tackle Brandon Williams said. “We went in detail over things to make sure everybody was on the same page, what we were looking to get out of each play and what we were trying to take advantage of”. So I know what they’re thinking. “I know what he hates and he knows what I hate”.
Harbaugh said Forsett’s ankle injury, which kept him off the field for the overtime period during the Week Five loss to Cleveland, was not a high-ankle sprain. RB Reggie Bush has not practiced this week since aggravating a calf injury in Sunday’s loss to the Giants. Joe Flacco completed 19 of 35 passes for 210 yards and one touchdown to lead the Ravens.
