ORANGE CRUSH!! Da Bears 41 - 49ers 10

Mark Bradley, Bears Super Fan
So the San Francisco 49ers came here to Chicago hoping to dig for sports gold, but instead got the ol' Windy City smackdown. It was 10-0 before Brian Urlacher and the defense took the field. 41 points scored by Da Bears in the first half alone! The final score is not indicative of the level of domination Chicago had over San Francisco.
If you’re a 49ers fan and you had something to do Sunday, like yard work or driving your kids to soccer, I hope you took the time to do it. The Bears scored 21 points off three San Francisco turnovers, and that was just in the first quarter. All the orange around Soldier Field should have let the 49ers know they would need hard hats.
While the Bears had to come from way behind to steal their last victory against the Arizona Cardinals, the Bears win was never in doubt against the San Francisco 49ers this week.
After possibly his worst performance of his career two weeks ago, Rex Grossman came out gunning, leading the Bears to a 41 – 10 victory over the SF 49ers. Grossman (23 for 29, 252 yards, 3TDs and 0 interceptions in 3 quarters of play) looked like the phenomenon he was in the first few games.
The defense dominated once again. They forced four fumbles, and Brian Urlacher made an acrobatic interception off his own tip that once again proves those haters wrong. The defense didn't spend very much time on the field, but made the most of their time on the field, causing four first-half turnovers that helped the offense rack up 41 points by halftime. They forced 1 interception and 5 fumbles, winning all but 1 fumble.
Strong safety fill-in Todd Johnson made it easy to forget the secondary was playing its first game without Mike Brown.
Robbie Gould continued his Field Goal Streak (2 – 2, 43 and 36 yards).
Few Stats:
QB Rex Grossman- 23/29 252 yards, 3 TDs, 137.4 passer rating
RB Thomas Jones- 111 rushing yards, TD
RB Cedrick Benson- 26 rushing yards, TD
TE Desmond Clark- 86 receiving yards, 2 TDs
K Robbie Gould- 2 – 2, 43 and 36 yards
WR Muhsin Muhammad- 65 receiving yards, TD
ATTENDANCE: 62,200
The 24 first-quarter points were the most ever, and the 41 first-half points tied the 1948 Bears for best in a half.
The Bears are now 7-0 for the first time since 1985, and we all know what happened that year! That's two games better than any other NFC team. With Miami coming to Chicago next weekend, there's no reason to think the Bears won't hit the midway point without a single blemish on their record.
Go BEARS!
