| San Francisco, CA (MySportsbook) - Frank Gore ran for 104 yards and a touchdown, as San Francisco recorded five interceptions in a 10-6 win over the Chicago Bears at Candlestick Park. Gore also had four receptions for 21 yards for the 49ers (4-5), who snapped a four-game losing streak in head coach Mike Singletary's first game against his former team. Singletary was a Hall of Fame linebacker for the famed Chicago defense from 1981-1992. Alex Smith completed 16-of-23 passes for 118 yards with an intercepti |

| (MySportsbook) - The team that wins Thursday's primetime battle between the San Francisco 49ers and Chicago Bears at Candlestick Park will have the opportunity to kick off its weekend in a positive fashion. The loser, on the other hand, will have an extra few days to wallow in its misery before taking the field again in Week 11. Both the 49ers and Bears are badly in need of a victory on Thursday in order to wash away the residue of poor stretches of football. San Francisco has dropped four straight games |

Fast Fact: The most recent road victory for a Buccaneers rookie starting quarterback occurred on Jan. 2, 2000, when Shaun King presided over a 20-6 win at the Chicago Bears.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) -Mike Singletary became a Hall of Fame linebacker with the Chicago Bears during a 12-year career spent all with the same club. Photos of Singletary and his Monsters of the Midway brethren still hang in the linebackers meeting room, reminders of the Bears' special 1985 Super Bowl season. ``He's obviously one of the great leaders to walk these halls,'' Chicago linebacker Lance Briggs said. For Singletary, this is no time to turn nostalgic. He would rather not reflect too much on his |

SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) -Alex Smith briefly watched film of Sunday's game before moving on to the next task: the Chicago Bears on Thursday night at Candlestick Park. The quick turnaround meant San Francisco's quarterback had little time to nitpick his turnover-plagued performance in last weekend's loss to the Tennessee Titans - and he figures that's a good thing. The 49ers (3-5), mired in a four-game losing streak and two games out of first place in the NFC West after leading the division last month, |

| . After matching a career- worst by throwing five interceptions in a frustrating 34-21 home loss to Carolina the previous week, the veteran quarterback bounced back with a sensational effort that paved the way for a most-impressive 41-21 rout of the Chicago Bears this past Sunday at Soldier Field. Warner led an Arizona offense that was unstoppable early on, with the two-time league MVP orchestrating touchdown drives on the team's first four possessions as the Cardinals built a commanding 31-7 halftime lead. |

| (MySportsbook) - It was supposed to be an intriguing battle between a pair of 4-3 playoff hopefuls, two of the past three NFC champions. It was billed as a knock-down, drag-out tussle between the Chicago Bears, a team that had been dominant at its Soldier Field home, and the Arizona Cardinals, who had played their best football on the road. It was hyped as a quarterback battle to watch between Kurt Warner, the steely veteran, and Jay Cutler, the NFL's future at the position. Ultimately, it was all that an |
