Coordinator Dennis Allen had no specific answers for why the 49ers were able to torch his Bears defense for six touchdowns last week. In fact, as is his custom, he wasn’t even taking questions about it.

“We’re moving on to Detroit,” Allen said Thursday. “I’ll say this — I don’t think I coached well enough last week. I don’t think we played well enough last week. So you learn your lessons. You make corrections that you need to make. Now we move forward, and we’re getting ready for Detroit. And I appreciate any of the questions about last week, but I’ve been through it plenty of times.
