The 49ers beat the Bears in a thrilling Sunday Night Football shootout in Week 16, 42-38. Brock Purdy and San Francisco took the lead with 2:15 remaining in the fourth quarter, which was more than enough time for Caleb Williams to march the Bears down the field with a chance to win it on the final play of the game.
The Bears almost scored on a hook-and-ladder on the next-to-last play of the game, but were stopped short. Without any timeouts they had to run one more play. The 49ers had a timeout, which Kyle Shanahan could have used to set up his defense, but instead he decided not to call it.
