Ravens will hit Kaepernick if they can

As people all around them are partying, the Ravens stay in their hotel rooms at night and keep their heads in their iPads, trying to solve the Colin Kaepernick caper.

And the players have one big question after watching the 49ers quarterback use his sleight-of-hand, foot speed and strong arm to embarrass defenses ...

Why doesn't anybody hit him?

"I've been surprised," inside linebacker Dannell Ellerbe said. "You want to hit the quarterback anyway, and now you get a chance to take shots because he is out in the open and not protected. You would think defenses would try and rattle him and send a message."

Says Haloti Ngata: If we get a shot, we have to take it. You have to slow him down, make him think about not wanting to get hit."

Yep. Play man, stuff the box, and hit Colin hard, even at the expense of a few personal fouls. Expect it.
