This shows the roster construction by Pace is flawed. Zero playmakers outside of Fields and Herbert. WRs that can't get open, and too many dropped/tipped passes. Not a single offensive player has helped Fields out. Defense is now overpaid and old, keep 3-4 players, and firesale the rest. At this point, the team should move on from both Pace and Nagy.

Welp that does it, 3-5 and out of the playoff race. Too many teams in front of them. Defense didn't stop SF on a single drive, they never punted. There is so much money on that side of the ball, they have to be better. Anywhere hear Goldman's name called? Dude is a ghost. DLine was supposed to be a strength, but the Bears are getting beat in the trenches. On the bright side, definitely Fields best game, even without any legit WRs and a bad O-Line. The rest of the year is no longer about wins and losses. Let's just see Justin gain experience and improve. Bears have to be sellers by Tuesday. Trade pretty much anyone on defense besides Roquan and Johnson. I would make pretty much anyone on the offense available outside of Fields, Monty, and Herbert. Obviously, keep Borom and Jenkins, but I would even let Daniels, Whitehair, or Mustipher go if someone is willing to give up draft capital for them.

Defense has been gashed on screens. Can't send fewer defenders on that side, easy big gain when you have extra blockers. Same on the pitch plays. Bears offense needs to take notes.

Yeah, it was masked by the FGs and missed kicks earlier. SF has yet to punt. The defense looks terrible. Not what I expected.

Of course Santos misses the XP and the Bears still trail now 23-22.

HOLY SHIT JUSTIN FIELDS! He got hit at the 29 yard line behind the LOS and turned it into a TD. Are you serious? Over 100 yards rushing. That was on 4th and 1 no less.

Welp, the defense just folded on that drive. Almost zero resistance and they still haven't even forced a punt. Now down by 7 with WRs can't get open.

Herbert got kneed in the head, Bears go 3 and out. Now SF moving the ball and are already back in the RZ to end the 3rd quarter. The 49ers have yet to punt.

Oh man, on the Jimmy G TD, RT moving well before the snap. No call....

Yep, ridiculous. Bears get called when Whitehair is 1.5 yards downfield, but 49ers can be 2+ yards downfield with ball in the air? Great play by DHC to save a TD. Then Quinn held again on that Jimmy G keeper. Another ez call missed. At least they missed the XP, Bears still lead 16-15 lol.

Right now the Bears are winning on both sides of the ball, but the Deebo deep ball is what kept them in the game. The Bears TOP is 25 to 11 mins.

Bears settle for FG, Fields accounted for 75 yards on that drive. He know has more rushing yards than Herbert (who is going backwards now) and 131 passing yards. Not much more you can ask him to do.

Kmet drops a TD, ugh.

Looks like they are run blitzing, need to attack that with the quick passes on play action.

Wow Fields with the spin o rama on Fred Warner.

Quick slant on 3rd down to Goodwin with some pressure on Fields. Wild to see a WR with separation. SF now doing some run blitzes. Need to take advantage of that pressure.

Ugly sideways run for Herbert there. Gotta go north and south.

Damn Fields is showing his speed, nothing open, Fields beats Bosa for 15 on the ground.

Nice run back by Grant, then oh what a first down throw you say? Big gain to James for 19.

Ugh, of course, the defense leaves Vildor one on one with Deebo with no safety over the top. Huge play. Just double Deebo, he is their only deep threat.

I agree, now the unit needs some reps together to build that cohesion. The best part is this will arguably be the worst Borom plays, rookie coming off a long injury break.

Bears get conservative but at least get some points, Santos again perfect, Bears 13-6. With one timeout, the defense needs to close the half out with 80 seconds left.

Herbert has 66 yards rushing. Fields is 9-11, 86 yards plus an additional 48 rushing.

This has been a super quick first half. 2-minute warning already. Bears at the 18. WOuld be nice to score last and then get the ball to start the 2nd half.

Finally a penalty against the 49ers, hands to the face with another long Fields scramble for a first. Herbert does not go down on first contact, seems slippery.
