It won’t be another December to remember.
A year after the 49ers whipped a division champion at home in Week 16 en route to 5-0 finish, they couldn’t duplicate the feat Sunday.
Instead, the Bears, the NFC North champions, stopped the 49ers’ bit of season-ending momentum with a 14-9 win at Levi’s Stadium, which was full of navy-and-orange-clad fans cheering the road team.
The 49ers (4-11), who entered with two straight wins over playoff-contending teams, were a year removed from a 44-33 win over Jacksonville, which got to the AFC championship game.
Sunday, however, their similar upset bid ended with just over a minute left in the game.
