The good and not so good from the 49ers’ upset win over the Saints

Here are the under-the-radar heroes from Sunday’s win over the Saints.

THE GOOD

  1. WR Kendrick Bourne. Caught two touchdown passes and established himself as the 49ers’ top red-zone target. During training camp and preseason, Bourne dropped lots of passes. But, he hasn’t dropped many this season, with the exception of the drop that led to the interception against the Seattle Seahawks. Bourne seems like one of the best No. 3 receivers in the league.
  2. LB Dre Greenlaw. Matched up man to man with Saints running back Alvin Kamara and helped limit him to just 18 receiving yards.
