NEW ORLEANS – Ahmad Brooks played wide receiver in high school. And he returned kicks in college. So when the 259-pound outside linebacker saw a Drew Brees pass sailing…
Extra Point:This was a great team effort. The defense was outstanding. The offense was good. The result? A win, but one that was not quite good enough to cement Kaepernick as the long term starter of the team. Sure... he had his moments... and the team looks more explosive (on both sides of the ball) when he's in... but he made his rookie mistakes, and got bailed out by Randy Moss and an awesome defense. The 49ers will continue the wait and see approach. All of that though... and you factor in double digit penalties, a fumble by Tedd Ginn, another missed field goal by Akers, a blocked field goal, Hunter, Walker injured and a severe injury to Kyle Williams, and you have to wonder if the Niners became way more vulnerable through this game.
