Cutler breaks thumb on throwing hand

Bears were the 2nd or 3rd best team in the NFC... this sucks if he is out more than a few weeks.

The 49ers are clearly the 2nd best team in the NFC and NFL and it was true before Cutler got injured.

Damn, I was looking forward to a Jay Cutler show down verses Tebow in Denver

You get Tebow and Rivers next week and I hate to say it but my money would be on Tebow if it were on anything here. I'm fading SDG until further notice.

The 49ers arent that good. They are playing well but the reality is they are a team that was overlooked before the season began and they have had a easy schedule so far. I honestly think the 49ers will lose there first playoff game.

Give Jake Plummer big money to come out of retirement is the only chance they have

How can you say that when their schedule has been a huge joke?

Beat the horrible Seahawks
Lost at home to the mediocre Cowboys
Won at an above average Cincinnati
Won at Philly
Beat Tampa Bay
Beat Detroit
Beat Cleveland
Beat Washington
Beat New York
Beat Arizona

Basically, here are the two teams' wins:

49ers: Seahawks, Bengals, Eagles, Bucs, Lions, Browns, Redskins, Giants, Cardinals
Bears: Falcons, Lions, Eagles, Chargers, Panthers, Bucs, Vikings

The 49ers have 2 more wins. But come on... the overall group the Bears have victory over is more impressive than the group for the 49ers. The Seahawks, Browns, Redskins, and Cardinals are all automatic wins.

Bears are still the better football team and Hanie isn't half bad, so I think they still lose to the Bears in that spot.
