The San Francisco 49ers beat the Pittsburgh Steelers 20-3 in a game twice delayed by power outages to stay in position for a bye in the first round of the National Football League playoffs.
Vernon Davis and Frank Gore scored second-half touchdowns last night at Candlestick Park for the 49ers, who improved to 11-3 and ended the Steelers’ four-game winning streak.
The N.F.C. West champion 49ers moved to 11-3, while the Steelers dropped to 10-4. San Francisco has yet to allow a rushing touchdown. The Niners shut down Pittsburgh’s offense in a low-scoring game that played perfectly into their style.
