he also has a budding star right behind him in bernard pierce. >> the ravens tie-line offense has joe flacco on the star of sports"illustrated -- "sports illustrated" twice. rice has not dazzled with highlights. mostly it offering ground- pounding yards. does that sit well with someone who is very much enjoyed his rise to nfl stardom? >> i do not have to be the center of attention. and i know i am a playmaker on the team. my number will be called fairly often, but there are other guys out there that can do it as well. >> everyone pretty much place for each other. we all know our capabilities and tried to play to the full extent of that. that is how we pretty much approach it, play for each other. >> to further prove that, look at to bernard pierce. >> he saw me struggling a little bit, and he eventually took me in and started showing me the plays. we develop the bond and friendship to be able to push each other. >> of course it the 49ers -- if the 49 is decide to focus on this, that will allow ray rice to run again. john harbaugh likes to preach team, team. when you do it and it works

but now bernard pierce has added a new element to the ground game. ray lewis has returned to the defense. the ravens look like underdogs, but they do not sound overwhelmed. and joe flacco will likely play better this week then in week 15. he learned from that nightmarish experience. saturday could have a different outcome the most of the country expects. >> defense played very well against these guys. we have to go do our thing. i think just as always, our goal is to score touchdowns. you know, obviously, they can score at a pretty high rate. we have to let our defense do their job. they are going to play the game they always play. >> pretty good chance the first team to reach 30 points in this game wins. the ravens have a 5-0 record when they score 30 or more points. the broncos have a 11-0 record when they scored 30 or more points. donna? >> thank you. we will see you this weekend, we? prescription sleeping pills like ambien. >> ahead, what should be a wake- up call for patients. >> school tomorrow -- when we come back. >> we have rain to talk abou
