Re: Are the 49ers a more favorable matchup than Atlanta would've been?
Sorry. Would've rather had the falcons all day. 9ers are one of the most complete teams in the league. Can run, pass when they need to, stop the run, and, ehhh, sometimes play the pass. The falcons can..... pass. That's it. Their defense sucks and they have no running game. Dome or no dome, would've much rather had the falcons

Mannihgham is out for the year. This happened on December 25th.....replaced by Moss.
justin Smith has a partially torn triceps and needs surgery. Ths happened week 14 and he was the 49ers pass rush.
his injury more than anything is going to effect their game plan against us.
Akers is injured and has missed 14 FGs this year.Way Down South in New Orleans

Re: Are the 49ers a more favorable matchup than Atlanta would've been?
as far as matchups go, Atlanta would have been an easier rode despite their awesome receiving core. Matt Ryan is a pocket passer behind a line that you can be more aggressive with and their Defense is much more weak across the board. Not even taking into account that Ryan likely would hand us the game on a golden platter regardless. Theres a reason the 49ers won and that is because they are a far superior team.

Re: Are the 49ers a more favorable matchup than Atlanta would've been?
I think I would have preferred Atlanta, if only because they are more predictable. I have no idea if San Frans D line will be great (as it was most of the season) or mediocre (last 4 games). I have no idea if Kaep will be the beast we saw against Green Bay, or the mediocre second year guy we saw versus the Seahawks and Rams? Will they be able to run on us? Will we be able to burn them deep?
I just don't know.

Re: Are the 49ers a more favorable matchup than Atlanta would've been?
9ers won by 4 points, taking the lead finally in the 4th quarter. Superior team then the falcons, not by a long shot, 9ers beat two teams in postseason by hanging in there. Packers were a team that had rodgers, but a weakening defense and receivers who couldn't catch that game. Atlanta whipped the 9ers in the first half offensively and their defense got tired in the first half. Second half, matty numb fingers forgets how to take a snap and gives uo the ball on a nice drive. Add that to his interception he threw and well,the rest is history. Ryan thought he could pass his way to victory,but he needed7 points this time not 3 points. If he would have thrown that ball to *88,he would have done better. R white couldn't push his defender off(like he normally does) and didnt catch the ball(wouldn't have mattered, he was short of the first down anyway).Far superior team, no 9ers are a team that doesn't give up, thats why they had a tied game on their win/loss record. They lost against the rams once and tied the other. Seattle opened a can of whoop ass on them and played them close in the other game only to lose.
Ravens play tough, knock out or bang up some players(crabtree,gore, davis, and let kp feel some blows), it should be a good game. Ravens nation makes a strong presence and Ravens team hears it, could be a long day for the 9ers.
