ESPN's AFC North Blog: Ravens win more than bragging rights

• The Ravens' decisive 16-6 victory over the San Francisco 49ers allows you to make the argument that Baltimore is the best team in the AFC. What's not debatable is this: The Ravens are the AFC's most dangerous team at home. 
• Baltimore consistently crashed the pocket on Smith with four- and five-man rushes, tying a franchise record with nine sacks. The Ravens' sacks outnumbered Smith's passes of more than 10 yards (five). For the season, 27 of the Ravens' 38 sacks (71 percent) have come at home. 
• One Baltimore fan held up a sign that read: "We have the better Harbaugh." But this Thanksgiving night was more than the older brother beating the younger. This was about the Ravens establishing themselves as the team to beat in the AFC and proving their dominance at home once again. 

Ravens Insider: Ravens win Harbaugh Bowl, defense dominates Niners

• Relentlessly attacking on defense despite All-Pro middle linebacker Ray Lewis being sidelined for the second consecutive game with a toe injury, the Ravens (8-3) stonewalled 49ers star running back Frank Gore as they limited him to a season-low 39 rushing yards on 14 carries.
• Pro Bowl outside linebacker Terrell Suggs tied a career-high by sacking Smith three times, and defensive end Cory Redding chased Smith down for 2 ½ sacks with All-Pro defensive tackle Haloti Ngata decking him twice more.
• Flacco completed 15 of 23 passes for 161 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions for a 100.1 quarterback rating.
• And the Ravens converted 6 of 9 third downs in the second half and 7 of 15 for the game.
