Good and bad from 49ers’ win in New Orleans

The 49ers got some good and some bad showings in their win that put them back atop the NFC playoff picture.

Bad: Kick coverage

Saints return man Deonte Harris had a monster day in the return game. He had 37 yards on two punt returns, and 155 yards on five kick returns. His elusiveness in the return game gave the Saints several short fields and made life even more difficult on San Francisco’s already scuffling defense. The 49ers have been dynamite in kick and punt coverage all season. They were not good there against the Saints.
