The Week 16 matchup between the defending No. 1 seeds, the Baltimore Ravens and San Francisco 49ers, will take place on Christmas. There are numerous plotlines in this game, such as the MVP contenders Lamar Jackson and Brock Purdy going up against each other and the No. 2 49ers offensive playing against the No. 2 Ravens defense.
In particular, the 49ers offense has been blazing lately, scoring at least 27 points in six of their last seven games and amassing over 400 yards in six of their previous seven games. In the 49ers’ last three games, Purdy has thrown 10 touchdowns, continuing his incredible recent play.
On Monday, the Ravens defense will have to attempt to thwart this offense. In terms of sacks and points allowed per game, Baltimore’s attack ranks #1 overall and second overall. Their distinctive playmaking style, spearheaded by defensive coordinator Mike Macdonald, has bewildered a lot of opponents this season.
Safety of ravens The Ravens defense, which aims to stop Purdy and the 49ers offense, will be heavily reliant on Kyle Hamilton. Hamilton doesn’t underestimate the task Purdy will present, even though he thinks the Ravens are the best team in the NFL. Hamilton is aware that Purdy is a greater threat than the system quarterback, despite the opinions of many others.
Hamilton stated, “Rumor has it that he’s a system quarterback around the NFL. “I just don’t think that’s accurate based on what I’ve observed. He’s making every throw a quarterback can make; he’s mobile, accurate, timely, and surround himself with a fantastic group of teammates. I think he’s excellent; well done. According to ESPN’s Jamison Hensley, “What he’s done now and being in the MVP race is a pretty cool story.”
