Saints Blow Late Lead, Lose to 49ers in OT 27-24

The New Orleans Saints blew a three point lead in the final minute of regulation to lose 27-24 to the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday.

Drew Brees fumbled in overtime allowing Phil Dawson to kick a 35 yard field goal to win. The loss snaps a club record 11 game home winning streak for the Saints.

Drew Brees had three touchdown passes and three turnovers and actually received some boos after an interception at the end of the first half.

Bright spots for the Saints were 120 rushing yards from Mark Ingram and two touchdowns from Jimmy Graham.

Despite the loss, the Saints remain in first place in the NFC South. The Carolina Panthers can pull into a tie with the Saints if they win Monday Night at Philadelphia.
