''I've had a lot of time in this offense. My teammates were really supportive.'' Jason Campbell, the other quarterback in this matchup of backups for two division leaders, threw a 13- yard touchdown pass to Brandon Marshall in the third quarter but was sacked five times and threw two interceptions in his first start since October 2011 for Oakland. He faced fierce pressure all night, on the field for the Bears (7-3) as starter Jay Cutler recovers from a con- cussion suffered eight days earlier — just like Smith. Trent Baalke look good for his selections from the 2011 draft class. Aldon Smith took over the NFL sacks lead with 15, passing Denver's Von Miller with 13, with the sec- ond-best total in franchise history behind Fred Dean's six-sack day on Nov. 13, 1983, against New Orleans. Tarell Brown and Dashon Goldson each had an inter- ception for San Francisco's stingy defense, which shut down Campbell, Matt Forte and Co. three years after the teams last met in a 10-6 49ers home win.

The 48-year- old Harbaugh underwent a minor procedure for an irregular heartbeat Thurs- day. The 49ers added a safety in the fourth quarter that was scored after review. With 9:24 left, former San Francisco offensive line- man Chilo Rachal was called for intentional grounding out of the end zone, but Harbaugh chal- lenged and earned the safe- ty after review showed Rachal was down in the end zone. faced Kaepernick went 16 for 23 with a 133.1 passer The soft-spoken, stone- rating. He completed 12 of his first 14 passes with a 57- yard strike to Kyle Williams that set up Davis' 3-yard TD on the next play — and he already had amassed 126 yards passing by the end of the first quarter. The 49ers led 17-0 on Hunter's early TD run in the second, quickly topping the 14.8 points the Bears were allowing per game. Kaepernick threw for 184 yards in the first half alone — an impressive out- ing for the second-year pro selected in last year's sec- ond round out of Nevada.
