Hang on..  So you're telling me rookies can play badly and develop into all pros? I've been told many times on here that that could never happen

Clearly these guys didn't pay much attention to their favorite player.

Josh played for most of 2012, to the tune of 16 games and 12 starts, before screwing up that Buffalo game in 2013. He absolutely had the chance to learn well before the mistake. Not saying that Worley is better or anything like that, but Josh made his own bed.

Learn from the mistake, not learn before the mistake.

Who's to say there wasn't a play in Josh's rookie season that he was supposed to switch off and didn't? I know it's a hypothetical unless we look at all his plays

I'd bet a year's salary that some team, some time, ran a crossing route against Josh during those 16 games. DJ Moore even told him it was coming.

I'm not even sure what people are complaining about. Norman sucked then and 13 was the best defense we have had in recent years. It worked in the short and long term with Norman.  What is the gripe?

Who knows. I'm not even sure why they're comparing Worley and norman..  Bradberry is the norman clone

It's good to see the young guys develop as the year goes on. Just shows that they aren't total wastes of space out there and there is hope for the future at the position.

I just hope they continue to get better and don't plateau like Martin, Godfrey, Boston, etc.

Worley has improved, but the jury is most definitely still out. I never understood the undue criticism because a learning curve is to be expected. But let's stop viewing him from the perspective of haters, and not go over-the-top on modest improvement. 

Someone mentioned Waynes. I've seen him. He has shown the potential of being a shutdown type of corner. Worley hasn't done that quite yet, and may not ever. But I do believe he's shown that he belongs in the league---as depth, at least. Whether he turns into Norman, Darius Butler, or Melvin White is still up in the air.

Yes, bit of a stretch, but we may not have a half bad of a secondary if we get a good safety to complement these corners.

Adams in the first, Foreman in the second if we don't get Eric Berry and I'm completely satisfied.

The secondary has gotten better, but our offensive line needs a new look at the tackle spots.

sorry, I'm not impressed by Worley. He blows big plays. 

ThisX100.  I mean, the end of the season many players have looked good for us in the past.  Including Matt Moore.

Yeah that's true but I don't think they will and I'm pretty certain that the starters don't want to, but we'll see...

Atlanta plays San Fran next.  So.....unless Jesus comes down and plays for the 49ers, I don't see them losing.

It's hard to be excited about the play of young corners given we don't value the position

Colin Kaepernick is quietly playing decently, wouldn't be surprised if he put some points up and made it interesting 

[uncfan888]

Atlanta isn't sitting starters during our game. Maybe if it was the last game of the season.  Besides, I want to see them go up against Atlanta full strength and see how they do
