With a starting CB out and a patchwork pass rush - we still hold Cam Newton to his worst passing performance as a pro - 125 yards in the air. In today's NFL, with all the rules opening up the passing game, that is ridiculous.

Earl Thomas III is the best defensive player in the NFL. Period.

I don't know that I'd go so far as to say that ETIII is the best defensive player in the NFL, but he is definitely in the top 20. While it's a team sport, he damn near won the game for us with that clutch forced fumble.

Earl may not be number 1 but he is at least top ten.

Agree'd. I'm a little bit worried about Vernon Davis next week as we still have some trouble with tight ends, but no way does Boldin do to us as he did to the Packers.

Sherman is Sherman. Maxwell and Thurmond both held their own. Hopefully Browner will be back next week.

How about the punch out Maxwell had, I was super proud of him on that replay. Hope to see more of that!
