49'ers vs Bears SNF Recap

 

Today's TakeDown will highlight last night's Prime time football game, as the Chicago Bears made a spectacular comeback to defeat the the San Fransisco 49'ers 28-20. 

Last night's Sunday Night Football game started with the San Fransisco 49'ers taking charge as their fast paced offense put points on the board quickly, Kaepernick throwing a TD to Crabtree in a 7 yard drive to put SF ahead early. This was followed by a Phil Dawson 27 yard field goal after 14 plays and 72 yard to give the 49'rs a comfortable 10-point lead.

2nd Quarter: Frank Gore makes an 8 yard run for the touchdown close to the end of the half, but not before Brandon Marshall makes a phenomenal one handed grab in the endzone with seconds to go before the half, cutting the score down to just a 10 point deficit at the half for Chicago.

3rd Quarter: Phil Dawson puts another 3 points on the board from a 24 yard field Goal giving the 49'ers a convincing 20-7 lead over the bears, many fans believing the game was all but won.

4th Quarter: (Where things get interesting!) Brandon Marshall makes another critical catch in the endzone from Jay Cutler putting 7 more on the board for Chicago, before Kaepernick gets picked off by Chicago's first round pick out of Virginia Tech, Kyle Fuller!

Martellus Bennett makes a 3 yard TD reception giving the Chicago Bears the first lead of the game making the score 21-20 with the greater part of the quarter left to play. With a very close game on the line Kaepernick makes another costly mistake, throwing yet another interception to the rookie Kyle Fuller bringing his turnover total to 3 in this game, 2 int, 1 fumble lost. And as if things couldn't get worst for the home team 49'ers, 4 plays later Cutler throws a 3rd TD pass to Brandon Marshall, solidifying Chicago's comeback at 28-20
