Candlestick Chronicles: Rewatching the time the Monday night lights went out

The 49ers and Steelers met in Week 15 of the 2011 season for one of the more bizarre matchups of an overall strange year. Before the game a transformer outside the stadium blew and the lights went out. They went out again in the second quarter and caused another delay before the game resumed and San Francisco left with a 20-3 victory

Chris Biderman of the Sacramento Bee and Kyle Madson are joined by Neal Coolong of the USA TODAY Sports Media Group to rewatch that Week 15 showdown and recap all the other oddities about this contest between two powerhouses of the 2011 season.
