Ravens +points
I'm not much of a moneyline player. I expect the Ravens to win a close game outright.
SF has an edge in O-line and D-line, but I like the Ravens experience with Boldin, Leach, Rice and Flacco on offense and the names you already know on defense.
I also consider Kapernick a "rookie" at QB. I don't see a rookie QB winning the Superbowl, no matter how good he is. (although anything is surely possible).
It will be a great game I suspect, but I'll probably be playing Balt plus the points and perhaps the under.

Ravens are peaking at the right time. No comparison between their defense now and in the regular season. They made Brady look helpless. That's something.
The Niners D, by comparison, is suspect.
Kaepernick is great, but the Niners are not as tight, as a team, as the Ravens. They have egos that are learning to play within the team (Vernon Davis, Crabtree). You ask them a question and they say 'it's not about me; it's about the team'. As if they are just learning so basic a concept. Meanwhile, the Ravens have gathered around Lewis and are as tight a bunch as it gets.
This may come down to the genius of Kaepernick, who's been unstoppable and could be the best player I've ever seen, versus the team spirit of the Ravens.
The Niners want to run up the score, and have a suspect defense, so I may look at a couple of parlays: Niners x Over, and Ravens x Under.
