The institutional failure of the Bears offense is even worse than most seem to realize. Not only has it failed to improve in the Jay Cutler era, the team has overpaid for that failure. An offseason investment of tens of millions of dollars has done...

The 49ers defeated the Bears every way a team can be beaten Monday night — power, speed and thought. Almost no one on the team did his job well enough for the Bears to win. Three aspects of the 49ers' victory stood out upon closer inspection....

SAN FRANCISCO — It's too bad Colin Kaepernick wasn't available when Phil Emery set out to find a backup quarterback. The first-year general manager had to strike quickly to find an experienced No. 2. The Bears invested big money in Jason Campbell,...

Aldon Smith had more than twice as many sacks as he's had in a single game during his two-year NFL career. He had the second-most in San Francisco 49ers history. He now has more than anyone else in the league this season. And the defensive end did...
