I don’t want to hear about Robbie Gould (two missed field goals, one missed extra point vs. the Cardinals) for the foreseeable future. That is all.
• On the other hand, George Kittle is a real one:

• “I will say this,” Kittle said. “I grew up a Bears fan. And the fact that we helped the Bears makes me happy. Da Bears!” This man dropped a “Da Bears!” after leading the 49ers to victory knowing darn well his return helped the favorite team of his childhood out in a major way. Major respect.
• Sure, Jeff Wilson (22 carries, 183 yards) ran wild, and CJ Beathard threw three touchdown passes. But Kittle (4 catches, 92 yards) did work in his first game back from injured reserve. As a Bears fan, I’m thankful for his efforts. Should Chicago take advantage of the path presented by Kittle, finish the job, and make the postseason, I imagine he’ll be racking up “thank you” cards from Bears fans around the country.
