As many have said, he has still not proven he can beat a good defense.

But what bothers me the most is his attitude and body language when we're down, especially by multiple scores.  Last night he just quit trying.  I knew the game was over once I saw his body language.  I've compared him to Casey Clausen in the past, but about the only thing the have in common is their homestate.  Casey was a warrior, and I don't see that in Bray.  He's still immature, as we've seen in the preseason.  In the final quarter he spent most of his time pointing his finger at someone else.  His two INT's were obviously poor decisions.  And his intentional grounding might have been the turning point.

But i really dont like his attitude when it's gut check time.

Bray acts as if he doesn't care if he loses. I like a player who hates losing as much as he loves winning.

He does seem to give up, and I hate that.   I can't imagine Casey, let alone Peyton, taking the field trailing two TDs in the 4th and not still giving it their all to score.  I didn't see that in Bray last night, and I am pretty sure that's why Dooley spiked the ball at the end there.  Bray needs to grow a pair in those situations when he is behind.  IMO.

Turning into Check-down Charlie would do Bray good. I'm rarely one to try to draw conclusions about people I don't know, but I was very concerned by Bray's body language. He seemed pretty disconcerted, but that was only from my seat high in the end zone so I could be wrong.
