A True Rollercoaster: 49ers or Saints?
It was a thrilling Week 10 clash of the 1969 season as the San Francisco 49ers surged to a commanding 21-0 lead in the second quarter against the Saints. However, a remarkable 45-yard pass from John Brodie to Jimmy Thomas tied the score at 28-28 by the end of the third quarter.
The fourth quarter saw the lead change hands multiple times. Ultimately, with a late 23-yard field goal from Momčilo Gavrić, the 49ers held a 38-36 lead. But a game-winning 3-yard rushing touchdown by Ernie Wheelwright secured victory for the New Orleans Saints in the closing moments.
