Niners Capture Wild OT Affair In New Orleans

At New Orleans:

After quarterback Colin Kaepernick (who had earlier thrown a touchdown pass to Anquan Boldin) completed a 51-yard pass to Michael Crabtree late in the fourth quarter on a fourth-down play to set up a game-tying field goal, the San Francisco 49ers (5-4), with Phil Dawson kicking his second field goal, this time the game winner from 35 yards out in overtime, defeated the New Orleans Saints (4-5) 27-24 on the road on Sunday.  It was linebacker Ahmad Brooks who sacked and stripped Saints quarterback Drew Brees of the football in the extra period, setting up the game-winning three-pointer.  Frank Gore and Carlos Hyde each ran for a first-quarter touchdown for the Niners.
