San Francisco 49ers 36, New Orleans Saints 32

This was one of the best playoff games I have ever seen.  There were four lead changes in the last 4:02 of the game today!  The Niners were down 32-29 with only 1:37 left in the game, when Alex Smith led the Niners on a 7-play, 85 yard drive that resulted in a game winning TD.  Smith hit TE Vernon Davis with a 14-yard TD pass with only 9 seconds left in the football game to essentially seal the win for the Niners! Alex Smith certainly was not in game manager mode today as he completed 24 of 42 passes for 299 yards with 3 TD passes and 0 INTs.  He also carried the ball 1 time for a 28-yard TD run.  Frank Gore led the way on the ground for the Niners today with 89 yards rushing on 13 carries (6.8 ypc).  He also caught 7 passes for 38 yards (5.4 avg) in this game.  Kendall Hunter pitched in with 23 yards rushing on 6 carries (3.8 ypc) and he also caught 1 pass for 13 yards.  TE Vernon Davis was the star of the show in the passing game for the Niners as he caught 7 passes for 180 yards ...
