'And today, they’re more than a touchdown favorite over the 49ers (1-4) who, after an impressive win over Los Angeles in the opener, have lost four straight.'

'“(It’s) way behind me,” he said of his outburst. “I think it was more just the team than Chip. Going back to my old team where I did so much there … I got there at 20 years old.

'In short, Kap lacks touch on his passes. That became more pronounced, and more noticeable, in the final year of head coach Jim Harbaugh’s brief reign, 2011-14. The issue became chronic under Jim Tomsula’s one-year tutelage, 2015.'

'QB Tyrod Taylor aims for 4th win in row vs. NFC.'
