Super Bowl XLVII thoughts and prediction

Kaepernick, Kaepernicking. 

                    It’s gotten tiring to listen to all the media coverage emphasizing this historic feat.   However I do think it will play a significant role on the field.   When I look at the two teams, they look almost symmetric.   The defenses are both tough physical run stoppers.  The Ravens have a slight dis advantage when it comes to secondary however.  Yes Ed Reed is arguably the best Free Safety of his era, if not all time; but he alone can’t do everything.  I think Michael Crabtree will be too physical for the secondary and will play a huge role for the 49ers. 
In less than an hour from now Super Bowl XLVII will be the first in which two brothers will be opposing coaches, but I’m sure you already knew that.

                I think the running backs will be shut down early, both front sevens will be too strong.    I’m predicting a shootout just because both teams and coaches are so similar that they shouldn’t be surprised at anything the opposing defense will throw at them.  I think Kaepernick will run early and that will open up the passing game.  I think late in the 4^th quarter it will be 38-35 Ravens.  Kaepernick will have to lead a comeback drive.  If he can handle the pressure I think he’ll win it with a last minute touchdown pass to Randy Moss. The score will be 42-38 49ers.  Kaepernick will be MVP
