This has been a horrendous game, just brutal to watch.

Cutler's been terrible.

Bears have injuries everywhere. Jay isn't good enough to overcome those problems plus a bad defense. Marshall/Jeffrey aren't helping anyone, including themselves.

What was the o/u on flags?

Also, Cutler might not play second half after that hit.

Cutler settling down and making some better throws in the second half, but cant get ANYTHING going with the run game.  Ugh.

Niners starting the half with a 9 min drive didn't help either.

Fuller with two athletic picks. Wheels falling off Niners, close to zero read option this half.

He wasn't good at all in the first quarter, but since he took that shot in the second quarter, Cutler's been spectacular.

Single handedly saving my fantasy team. Along with the Patriots defense.

Hell of a second half.  Kyle Fuller's coming out party.  Marshall somehow shaking off that injury to go HAM.  And Cutler shook off a TERRIBLE start to have a brilliant second half and just made things happen.  Also love it because of garbage articles like this during last week.

BIG momentum for the Bears going forward.  Lets hope some of these injuries aren't too serious.  Ratliff has a concussion, but I worry Tillman could be done...

Alshon jeffry looked wicked slow due to his hamstring injury. I think I could've covered him!

Like.  Got to give the cat some credit as I am not one of his fans...but he takes a licking and keeps on ticking.  Great end of game...and Marshall is a gamer as well.

My 49ers sucked ass tonight.

Losing to the Bears is like an ND fan kicked you in the nuts and spit on you.

Great Second half.  Like most teams in the NFL, the Bears are going to have to overcome injuries to make something happen.  Happy to see Fuller step up and hopefully Ferguson and Sutton can fill in for Ratliff this coming week.
Also would be nice to get either Jeffrey or Marshall at 100% b/c they looked awfully ordinary last night, Jeffrey especially.

Really was a great second half by the Bears, and I can see why people are a little down on the Niners this year.  Zero pass rush.

LOLWUT?  Marshall wasn't 100% but if that was ordinary, especially the first TD catch, then there aren't many beyond ordinary WRs in the NFL right now.

AP reinstated. What was the point of deactivating him in the first place now?

I'm assuming to deal with the outstanding arrest warrant.  He traveled to Texas, posted bond, and was released.

Sorry... Agreed, excellent grab by Marshall at the end of the half and a pretty good game in all.  I guess I was referring more towards Alshon.  He really was hobbled most the night.

I'm sure that's the Vikings plan, but I don't see how he can play on Sunday.  Personally, I don't think he should play again this year, but we'll see what the NFL does.  Depends on whether something else pops up to drive the focus away from domestic abuse (something global, I don't think there is any sport story that is going to drive this story away...I hope)

NFL teams have no clue, no PR savvy, no non football management skills to work through what is going on.

AD to play this week? What changed in 72 hours?

Hardy probably plays Sunday? Why deactivate him one game.

Hiding behind "due process" is BS. Bowing to public outrage in the short term...total garbage.
