In a tight, sloppy, hard-fought game, the Niners made more big plays than the Bears, and it cost them. We're going over our notes from yesterday's loss to the Niners.
There's any number of words that you can use to talk about yesterday's disappointment of a game, but none describe it quite as well as "letdown."
The Bears needed another NFC win to give themselves a shot at negating their rough conference record. What better way than at home, against a team without a road win all season, going through a seemingly immeasurable amount of turmoil throughout the year, going in with a backup quarterback that flunked out of the league once and an injured list that could populate a 53-man roster in and of itself?
