    Superb by Graham to block, and Sproles picked a fantastic line.

    Brees is on 370 passing yards and game not over.

    Could see that coming, it was only a matter of time before they made 1 big play against a tired defence.

    Big, big possession coming up here.

    49ers gonna have to adapt to having to get first downs against a defense that I don't think is all that tired.

    Still fancy the 49ers here if they can get Gore moving on this drive.

    only hope for my bet on NO (-3.5) is to let the 49ers score a FG and then for NO to score a TD!!!

    He will hit it but can they get him anywhere near? They'll need to convert a couple of 3rd downs.



    Edit - or just do it in one! Avoiding any 3rd downs is there best chance!

    man that is a big (and stupid) penalty. Definite run has turned into a decision now

    No excuse for 12 men in the huddle after a timeout, criminal mistake.

    hmmmm, that's a mistake there from Smith IMO. Should have knelt down around the 2 or 3. They could have kicked a field goal as time expired.

    edit - oops forgot the 2 minute warning, but they could still have left only 20 seconds or so for Brees
