Studs and duds from Bears’ gut-wrenching Week 17 loss to 49ers

DUD: Dennis Allen

The San Francisco 49ers embarrassed the Chicago Bears’ defense, and the buck stops with Dennis Allen.

Allen had no answer for Kyle Shanahan’s playcalling. If this were a heavyweight fight, the ref would’ve stepped in and saved Allen from injury.

The 49ers had nearly 500 yards of offense, including 200 rushing yards, and kept Bears defenders on skates for four quarters.

Sure, Chicago has been the best in the NFL at takeaways. But they must get more consistent forcing three-and-outs, and getting to the quarterback if this team wants to make a serious run at the Super Bowl.
