In his first start since being officially named the 49ers’ quarterback, Lance had a disastrous performance in a shocking 19-10 loss to the Bears in Chicago. Sure, it didn’t help that the game was played in the middle of a biblical rainstorm, but no matter how you spin it, it was an ugly game for Lance. The sophomore quarterback completed less than 50 percent of his passes (13 of 28) and threw for just 164 yards. The worrying part for the 49ers is that Lance couldn’t come through when the 49ers needed him the most. With the 49ers trailing 13-10 in the fourth quarter, Lance had a chance to mount a comeback, but any hope of that happening ended when he threw a nasty interception on Eddie Jackson that effectively iced the win for Chicago. Jackson ended up returning the pick to the San Francisco 21-yard line, and the Bears would score five plays later to take an insurmountable 19-10 lead. Lance was at his worst in crunch time, going 4-for-13 for 41 yards and an interception in the fourth quarter. The upside for the 49ers is that Lance won’t have to play in such weather every week, but the downside is that if he doesn’t start to improve soon, San Francisco could have a quarterback battle before the end of his season. match. month.
