that's the sad truth. I'm tired of missed tackles and seeing smaller guys dragging Wilhoite's sorry ass 4-5 yards on every play. And 53 is out there, but that's not Bowman, and may never be again.

I agree, he looked bad. Bowman looks a step slower.. I feel its more mental so hopefully as the season goes on he will improve, but he's def a step behind what we are used to seeing.

You do realize that Bowman has not fully recovered right? you do know that once He is fully healed He will be Himself again.

I was never a fan of Wilhoite starting, I thought he was a decent back up when the 9ers still had Willis. Now I can't wait for him to be benched. I wanna see either Hodges in there ASAP or Wilhoite and Skov share some snaps.

Harold looks improved to me but I wasn't focusing on him until the end.

I do realize. And you assume he will ever get fully back. I'm simply stating that as of right now. He's a step slower and it shows. He does not jump a route or fill a hole as instinctively as he used to. Simple as that. I hope he can attain his old self, but right now this what we have.

Wilhoite is a serviceable ILB, but he will never be a dominant force like Willis or Bowman (Pre-Injury)

You cannot conceive of making the playoffs, let alone winning playoff games, with players like this guy starting.
