Chicago's OL got absolutely worked over all night long. A lot of times he had guys hitting him before he could even get set up in the pocket. I'm not sure Cutler would have done much better. SF was on fire right from the start.

Yes. They got worked over and, maybe, Cutler gets the same treatment. At the same time, nothing Campbell has ever done suggests that he is capable of elevating those around him. Campbell has never had pocket awareness and has always had a slow delivery. Campbell on his best day is a solid game manager and nothing more.
SF lit it up. A better QB, however, may have been able to take some of the edge off of them. A mediocre QB like Campbell just was fuel for the flame.
