The Niners are back on the road, looking for that elusive 2 game winning streak. Something not accomplished since the stagger down the stretch that was the Harbaugh exit back in 2014. That 7-4 mark was followed by a) Brady Hoke being fired from Michigan; and b) the 49ers losing their next 4 games to fall out of the playoff race. Coincidence? Who knows? And that is a whole other story.
The story now is the Jimmy Garoppolo era. And whether he can win 2 road games to kick off his 49ers career. No mean feat, as the Bears defense isn’t bad, and neither is Houston’s, although they have been hit with the injury bug as well. In a big way. DeShaun Watson was having a stellar offensive start to his career when he tore his ACL in practice leading up to game 5. Then J.J. Watt broke his leg in that week 5 against KC.But they do still have Jadaveon Clowney, so he’s always a threat. But their promising start was derailed and they are now relying on ex-porn star Tom Savage to salvage their season. 2-6 ain’t getting it done however.
That leaves Jimmy G and the slowly healthying up 49ers. Trent Brown is back, as well as Joe Staley and Eric Reid. The D line is gradually getting more and more pressure, and rattling Savage shouldn’t be too difficult. That leaves it to our offense getting into the end zone. 2 in a row!
Forty Niners Forever 
I agree 12th, he really got his bell rung on that hit by Dumervil.
Woo Hoo
TOUCHDOWN!!!
Why aren’t they using that Juckxyz to power run that ball in, Hyde got in but he was almost stopped!!
Great run by Hyde there Kevin.
Yes but how many time has he been stopped on the 1 or 2 yard line. Walsh would have used Tom Rathman in that situation
JG looks like the real deal to me.
Big time.
Yates is QB, savage is damaged.
That’s it for Savage.
Niners get in the EZ so infrequently they didn’t even have a decent celebration ready. All Hyde could think of is to flex his biceps. lol
Savage’s hand was twitching after Dumervil’s hit. That was nasty.
Let’s get a turnover!
TJ fucking Yates, world beater.
Somebody cut Johnson.
Johnson beat like a drum two times in a row, Hopkins schooled him. Witherspoon doing better against Hopkins.
Terrible defensive effort there.
Selah really wimps out on 3rd down. That 1st down by Yates was horrible. We had 3 linemen lined up on the right and no one on the left. Yates had the whole right side wide open. Stupid.
Absolutely. Yates sucks and he just walked his team down the field for an easy TD.
Hopkins is one of the best. We should be doubling him.
Exactly what I was thinking.
Lucky for Hyde
Take a shot to the EZ
Great drive by JG
Nice. A TD would have been gravy but I’m glad we answered their score with one.
Raiders coming up ant-small in their big game.
