Oh because that was the exact moment when it shifted. They were up 17-0.

17-0 instead of 21-0 = MORAL VICTORY = TURNING POINT.

Anyone with a brain knows that.

I understand that 17 is less than 21. But if the 49ers had stopped NO on the next drive and forced a punt then the momentum wouldn't have shifted. I don't think anyone would say that being up 17-0 is a bad thing or something to be concerned momentum wise.

The 49ers were NEVER GOING TO STOP THEM ON THAT NEXT DRIVE after the **turning point**, which the lack of a TD was. New Orleans said, "WELL, AT LEAST WE DIDN'T GIVE UP 7", and confidence was re-gained.

The great New Orleans would have fallen apart if they'd have given up a TD after a kickoff fumble.

It's a game now.

I'm predicting the first play of the 4th quarter to be a short slant from Brees to Jimmy Graham who then runs to the wrong end zone, ending up in a 49ers safety.

Seriously though, these 3 and outs by San Fran is going to kill their defense going up against a QB like Brees.

Fatigue for the SF D is a big factor right now
