[QUOTE=skinsguy]I didn't see much wrong with Bowen's performance before his injury....I felt he had played rather solid and was stepping up to be team leader on the D. I mean he's not up to superstar status, but he's played well.[/QUOTE]

We don't need superstars - we need players who play consistently well and think team first.

More than ever we need soem of that on O. I'm hoping the linemen we picked up in the draft will come through and pressure the veterans for playing time, and we get a WR or 2 to do the same. Apart from QB, those are the 2 units that have dissapointed most on the whole team this year. Next season will be stand up and be counted time.

bowen hits hard, blitzes, and works the run well... he's a great fit for williams system, except that he sucks pretty bad at coverage (against NY he wasn't even close to keeping up), despite that, i think we're better with him than without him... but if a hard hitting SS comes along that can cover as well, i'd take a serious look...
