The Niners and Saints had the game of the day in the NFL today -- and possibly the game of the year. The Niners prevailed 48-46 on a walk-off field goal from Robbie Gould. Gould's game-winner was set up by -- who else? -- George Kittle, who had a monster play on the game-winning drive. Just look at this:

BEAST MODE is no more. From now it shall be known as GEORGE KITTLE MODE.
Kittle had six receptions for 67 yards on the game, but the biggest by far was the 39-yard catch-and-run on that final drive. (The play became even bigger when 15 yards was tacked on for the absurdly blatant facemask penalty at the end of the run.)
Kittle also had a touchdown earlier in the game, which wasn't too shabby either:
