What a game!  The 49ers make not one, but two comebacks against the Saints.  Alex Smith and Vernon Davis have the games of their lives, and the moment of their lives, at the exact same time.  Pure Forty Niner magic in Candlestick and I felt like a kid again!  The defense and special teams were INSANE against the high powered New Orleans team.  Causing five total turnovers with Terrell Brown and Dashon Goldson each picking off a Drew Brees pass.

Patrick Willis came up with the football after Donte Whitner delivered a punishing blow to Pierre Thomas. The Special teams did work with 2 fumble recoveries of their own.  And of course, the D did what they always do, they absolutely shut down the run, holding the Saints to just 37 yards rushing on the day.

So many big time performances, so few of my Pigskins to give out.  I’m passing out the hardware after the jump
