Projected 49ers, Ravens Starters For Super Bowl XLVII
Projected starters and key players for the Super Bowl...
Projected starters and key players for the Super Bowl...
Preparing their respective teams for Super Bowl XLVII might have been easier for John and Jim Harbaugh than having to downplay the distraction of becoming the first brothers to coach against one another on the NFL's biggest stage.
Jerry Rice has chosen his sparkly Super Bowl ring, one of three he owns, to wear for Sunday's big game. And with good reason.
If the idea was simple, so was the way former Nevada coach Chris Ault went about mapping it out. White tape on the floor of the locker room. A rolled-up towel to simulate a football. And out of that came an offense that could win the San Francisco 49ers a Super Bowl.
This Super Bowl is one of comebacks, of firsts and lasts, and — if San Francisco wins — the best. A win over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday gives the 49ers six championships, matching Pittsburgh's record number of titles in the Super Bowl era.
Former Oakland Raiders defensive lineman Warren Sapp and former San Francisco 49ers offensive linemen Larry Allen were among the class of 2013 inductees into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
The San Francisco 49ers completed their final on-field preparations for the Super Bowl on Saturday with a 15-minute walk-through under the Superdome lights before Sunday's game against the Baltimore Ravens.
San Francisco 49ers cornerback Chris Culliver will begin sensitivity training and education immediately after the Super Bowl following his anti-gay remarks this week, then likely start volunteer work with at-risk homosexual youth nationwide.
With one more game on the schedule, the Ravens and 49ers come into Super Bowl 47 as healthy as they could hope to be. There are a lot of names on the injury report, but none to really be concerned about, as they have all played the previous game with the same problem.
As the 49ers and Ravens prepare for Super Bowl XLVII, many pundits and commentators try to compare the two cities off the football field. So, here is our cultural comparisons between San Francisco and Baltimore as the cities get ready to face off.
NFL Hall of famers have a tendency to lean toward greatness and Dan Marino is no different. He's particularly impressed with the play of San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick.
For the third straight day, San Francisco linebackers Ahmad Brooks (shoulder) and Aldon Smith (shoulder) were both limited participants in practice. However, that shouldn't affect their availability for the Super Bowl.
Two of the league's most imposing inside linebackers both happen to wear No. 52. Aside from the number, Lewis and Willis are as different as they come. Lewis is emotional, loud and brash. Willis is soft-spoken and happy to stay behind the scenes.
Gov. Jerry Brown was one of the few California politicians yet to announce a bet on Sunday's Super Bowl matchup, until he offered up a characteristically esoteric wager.
If Crabtree and Kaepernick can pull off another outstanding outing in the game of their lives, they'll take the podium together again for an entertaining back and forth of compliments and good-natured ribbing.
Right guard Alex Boone arrives for work most days and swears at left guard Mike Iupati. From Boone, it's always considered a term of endearment directed at his 49ers offensive linemates.
The San Francisco 49ers wrapped up their final practice before the Super Bowl a little early Friday, with coach Jim Harbaugh offering praise for the way Colin Kaepernick has handled the three days of work in New Orleans.
The city's top prosecutor called for peaceful celebrations, no matter the outcome of the big game between the 49ers and Ravens on Sunday.
Two large banners reading "Go Kap Go!" drape the landmark Reno Arch, which proclaims Reno as "The Biggest Little City in the World."
San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee is making one of his biggest bets yet on the 49ers when the team takes on the Baltimore Ravens in the Super Bowl this Sunday, city officials said.
John Madden told the KCBS Radio morning crew he likes the 49ers in the Super Bowl, "(But) it's going to be a tough game, I think it's going to be a physical game, I think it's going to be a close game."
"This is a great match-up," John Madden told the KCBS Radio morning crew. But he likes the 49ers in Sunday's Super Bowl.
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.
If the 49ers are to beat the Baltimore Ravens in Super Bowl XLVII, it will take a team effort. The Ravens play for the guy next to them, and will be a problem not only for the talent they have on the field, but also for the bond that holds them together. It's a good thing the 49ers have played as one unit all year and will be entering the Super Bowl the better team, and clicking on both sides of the ball.
