Yet hardly a word about his 24 completions, 63% completion rate or 280 yards. His net net on the day was not as bad as reading here would suggest. And for a guy that historically has not turned the ball over, its reasonable to believe that this is something that can be fixed.

I am just thrilled that he isn't looking like that St. Louis guy as he did for the first week or two.
You need to find a local tv repair man, for sure.

You're the only clown dismissing those issues.

OL has had 2 good games...out of 6.
Maxwell is still a liability
We're 3-3; you acting like we won the SB last week. Chip Kelly ain't outta the woods yet.
Murray's had 1 good game.

You're developing a lousy track record of sustaining reality.

OL has had 2 good games...out of 6. More like 3 out of 6. And more importantly 3 of the last 4.

Maxwell is still a liability. Maxwell is part of a secondary that has allowed a total of 24 points to two hall of fame QBs over the last two weeks. And no X Plays in their last game.

We're 3-3; you acting like we won the SB last week. Chip Kelly ain't outta the woods yet. No. Just a little realism to this board. To listen to everyone else, you would think they lost their last two games.

Murray's had 1 good game. 20-83 and a TD against the Saints. 20-112 and a TD against the Giants.

You're developing a lousy track record of sustaining reality. Again, you simply insist on being wrong in addition to negative.

Maxwell's been flagged for 7 penalties already this year. He was flagged for 10 all of last year. The rest of the 2ndary has been surprisingly good though ... at least so far. Very happy with the Safety play in particular.

Thurmond has definitely been a find at safety. His big knock has been injuries though. I worry he is too small for safety and may get hurt.

I still think Rowe would be good alongside Jenkins at safety. But it looks like we won't see that this year, unless there is an injury.

Maxwell is a #2 corner paid like an elite corner. It's pretty obvious. Our corners are still below average, but they are playing OK and the rest of the defense is playing well.

He was used to getting away with it in Seattle. That was a worry of mine when watching him last year, knowing he was a FA. Seattle is allowed to hold more down the field. Probably because the NFL wanted some good teams on the west coast.

Some of you are watching a much different game then I am. I see a qb that is not comfortable in the pocket, won't step up in the pocket and doesn't follow his progressions, instead his head looks like a bobble head swinging back and forth. He short hops balls and under throws the deep balls because he doesn't plant that left leg and step into his throws. He doesn't throw the football with any velocity either, he was lucky he didn't throw a pick 6 on that bubble screen. He looks to me right now like he is afraid. He also does not read a defense well at all. I see no Moxy, no take charge ability out there. I see a qb that simply does not look comfortable in any way. That presents a serious problem. Had we played a team like the Cardinals, packers, Denver or New England last night we would have lost by 20.

Wings, I could not agree more.

I also think that a lot of the miscommunication between him and the receivers is a direct result of his lack of leadership and (as you say) moxy. When you see rookie receivers do the wrong thing with manning or Brady or such, you see them getting onto them, instructing them, teaching them what is expected. I see Bradford just turn towards the sideline, shrug his shoulders, as if he is a helpless boy out there. Well, that didn't work. What do I do know? I just don't see much leadership from him at all. that is very concerning from the QB position.
