Jay Cutler, the Bears' starting quarterback, is already out for Monday night against the 49ers, a game which airs locally at 5:30 p.m. on CBS 5. And his San Francisco counterpart, Alex Smith, is set to join him on the sideline, CBS Sports NFL Insider Jason La Canfora confirms.
The injury report for the San Francisco 49ers and Chicago Bears is unremarkable except for one big name, Jay Cutler. Chicago will be without it's starting quarterback who suffered a concussion last week and has not been cleared to play. Even without Cutler, San Francisco will have their hands full on Monday Night as they faced a very talented team.
After suffering a concussion in last Sunday's tie game with the Rams, 49ers quarterback Alex Smith may be ready to play against the Bears on Monday night. If not, Colin Kaepernick will get the start.
The Steelers defeated the Kansas City Chiefs 16-13 in overtime in Pittsburgh Monday night, but lost quarterback Ben Roethlisberger to a shoulder injury in the third quarter.
The big news after the 49ers' recent tie was the condition of Alex Smith. The team's starting quarterback suffered a concussion that forced him out of the game, and it showed how vulnerable this team is without Smith. However, the severity of his injury indicates that he will not miss extended time, and instead the team should be more concerned with David Akers and his drop in production this year.
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Alex Smith threw a 14-yard touchdown pass in the second quarter of Sunday's 24-24 tie against the Rams while playing with blurred vision before coming out with a concussion.
The St Louis Rams and the San Francisco 49ers ended their game in a 24-24 tie. The two teams struggled offensively for most of the game and could not manage any points in the extra period.
San Francisco and St. Louis played the NFL's first tie game in four years as kickers from both teams missed overtime field goals in Sunday's 24-24 outcome.
For the 49ers to win in in the second half of the season and move forward in the playoffs, it will all come down to the play of Alex Smith. They will get consistent performances from the defense and special teams, so if the offense can do their part, then San Francisco is going to be tough to beat. The running game has been solid this year, and when the team loses it's because they got nothing from Smith and the passing game.
The San Francisco 49ers went to the league after their game with the Cardinals and asked that they take another look at the 4th quarter back that was ruled a run and not a pass. If the league reversed the call then Smith would have had the highest completion percentage in a single game in NFL history. However a close look at the play shows that Smith does not deserve the record.
The San Francisco 49ers have wrapped up the first half of their season, and they are right where they want to be. Much of their status is due to the elevation in play of both Michael Crabtree and Ahmad Brooks. The team also has Brandon Jacobs and Mario Manningham still ready to make their presence felt.
The heavyweight match-up between the Cardinals and 49ers might have been scheduled for 12 rounds, but it was over quickly. San Francisco raced out to the early lead and Arizona could never recover. The end result was an easy win for the 49ers, who have a bye up next and can get healthy in preparation for the stretch run.
On an almost perfect Monday night for Alex Smith, the San Francisco 49ers flexed their NFC West dominance with a 24-3 flattening of the Arizona Cardinals.
The former coach said those traits were enough to secure a narrow victory over the Seahawks, but won't be enough against other top teams.
The Thursday Night Game featured two of the NFC West's top teams, with the San Francisco 49ers earning the win. It should be no surprise that the man leading the way was Frank Gore, helped by another stellar performance by the 49ers defense.
Alex Smith threw a 12-yard touchdown pass to Delanie Walker late in the third quarter and San Francisco held off the Seattle Seahawks 13-6 on Thursday night as the 49ers won their long-awaited division opener.
With both teams more or less at full strength, the Thursday Night Game between the San Francisco 49ers and the Seattle Seahawks will be competitive to say the least. Both teams have a lot to prove and, outside of a few pieces, both will have their full rosters at their disposal.
The Thursday Night Game between the San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks has become an important division game for both teams. The 49ers are looking to prevent a losing streak, and the Seahawks are trying to prove that they are a threat this year. The key will be stopping Seattle running back Marshawn Lynch, who returns home to try and lead his team to a big win.
The New York Giants just put the rest of the NFC on notice. After dismantling the 49ers, who many believed to be the most complete team in the NFL, the Giants are back to the form that earned them a Super Bowl win last year. However, San Francisco can point to missed chances to at least keep the game close.
Alex Smith is a viable MVP candidate. Smith leads the NFL in quarterback rating. Yes, you got that right.
Not only have the 49ers avoided the injury bug, but they have gotten more and more healthy. The lone name that is new is the most important player on the 49ers roster, Alex Smith. However, the injured finger on his right hand seems to be fine and of no real concern. The Giants on the other hand are missing a few starters on offense and will hope that Hakeem Nicks is able to play.
San Francisco 49ers fans are no longer booing Alex Smith and calling for his backup.
