Crazy to think, if this EXACT game played in today's NFL, Saints win. That helmet to helmet hit by Whitner gives the Saints the ball at the 1 yard line and a first and goal. They likely score a TD, 39-36 final.

I was so losses when Graham that last td . I thought we was done after that. Even tho we only needed a fg. Hoping for fg to atleast get to over time but the nimers said screw that we going to win this and we had a epic drive and to end it with that post to davis was awesome.. I was in my car driving home from work. And when we scored that td I was jumping up and down in my car. Shouting yea!!!!yea!!! yea !!!!!! Il never forget that moment. And what makes it even more great is that I'm from Louisiana and live in Mississippi. Whole family is saints fans.

Incredible game

We should’ve won 1 championship with this squad .

My family was in Disneyland on that day, we came back to the hotel to watch the game, so we ended up wasting the tickets. I couldn't bear to watch anymore, and I went out on the balcony. But I could tell who's doing well by the loud cheers from all the surrounding hotels.

This niner defense was something to behold. Donte Hitner was a beast.

I believe this is the second best postseason win by our 49ers, after 2002 win against NY Giants. My favorite players of the game were Alex Smith & Vernon Davis. In this game Vernon Davis was as good as Terrell Owens in 2002 game against Giants. I’m really glad that he got retired with a ring unlike Owens and Smith.

I loved it

Might be the best defense we have ever had and I took it for granted! Everyone on the defense was punishing someone! Rushing 3 and still being able to get pressure is insane! Justin Smith just drove that dude into Brees what a fucking animal 😂
