While a lot can happen before now and the end of the season, the playoffs are still very much in reach for the 49ers.

Even without Cutler, San Francisco will have their hands full on Monday Night as they faced a very talented team.
Although the Bears will be without Jay Cutler, the game between the two teams still figures to be a fight to the end. With the two best defenses in the league on display scoring will be hard pressed for both teams, and important for the 49ers to avoid the two corners in the Chicago secondary who can change the game in one play.
