The SanFrancisco 49ers were able to comeback in the final three minutes of their game against the Oakland Raiders and win 27-21.  Shaun Hill led the team down the field during the 70 yard drive and rookie running back Thomas Clayton plunged in from one yard out for the winning touchdown.

The 49ers almost didn’t get the win however as Josh McCown and the Raiders drove down the field the final 35 seconds of the game and actually should have won.  Alvis Whitted dropped a sure touchdown in the endzone and that only left the Raiders with one more shot which was incomplete.

Ashley Lelie led the receivers with 4 catches for 57 yards, including a 1-yard TD catch. Lelie has primarily worked with the second and third units, but caught his first NFL pass from quarterback Alex Smith.

Due to injuries, Patrick Estes, Aubrayo Franklin, Frank Gore, Walt Harris and Bryant Young were held out of the game.
