Everybody in the league saw how inept Peanut Tillman was against Steve Smith. If the Bears are going to continue to put Peanut in man coverage against the opponents' best receivers, then we will see replays of the Carolina game. You think it was a coincidence that the first two Niners' offensive plays were throws to Bryant againt Peanut? How many catches did the guys Peanut was covering catch last night anyway? The opponents now see how to attack the Bears D. Peanut is the Bears' weakest link.

I think Ricky Manning will eventually replace Peanut as one of the starting corners. He seems to have quicker reactions and better makeup speed.

Dusty Dvoracek was also unimpressive last night. He got manhandled several times by the 49ers second string linemen. Right now he doesn't look like a capable replacement for Tank Johnson. Dvoracek didn't seem to have any explosiveness last night--let's see what he does next week.

Manning will eventually take his spot. Oh how the mighty have fallen. After Peanut's rookie year everybody had him going to the Hall of Fame. I think Peanut will make a nice safety. Maybe not this year but next years training camp they should put him there if he does fail at CB this year.
