Vernon Davis was listed as a bust before this season, because he never truly had his break-out season. But 2009 has been the year of the tight-end and Davis has been one of the best.

Tonight Davis gets the defenseless Chicago Bears defense that has everybody injured. I would start all my Niners and most of my Bears in fantasy football for what should be a high-scoring game.

If you are a Matt Schaub owner, then try out Alex Smith as a bye-week flyer. Smith has had a big bounce-back season and won't disappoint tonight. Michael Crabtree will get the injured Charles Tillman in single coverage so expect a big game from him as well.

Frank Gore should run wild and also have a huge game. On the Bears side, you can never sit Jay Cutler since the Bears defense is so bad that they are always forced to throw.

If you have been stuck with Matt Forte for this long then you can't sit him tonight, because he will be involved in the passing attack more than the rushing attack.

 

Prediction : SF 27 CHI 21

Studs : A. Smith, V. Davis, F. Gore, M. Crabtree, J. Cutler, M. Forte, D. Hester

Duds : Both defenses

Sleepers : J. Knox, J. Hill, E. Bennett
