SANTA CLARA, Calif. — Brock Purdy threw two touchdown passes and the San Francisco 49ers bounced back from two blowout losses to beat Chicago 38-13 and spoil interim coach Thomas Brown's debut for the Bears. The 49ers had been outscored by 53 points the past two weeks in losses at Green Bay and Buffalo that left their playoff hopes teetering.

The Bears lost their seventh straight and didn't get an emotional boost from the first in-season firing of a head coach in franchise history.
