Really? I'm so glad youre not our GM.
Why not?? Bowman in three games has proven to be better than Willis. Bowman is our future, not Willis.
He's made the probowl every year since he's been in the league. He's regarded as the best MLB by, not only NFL analysts, but NFL players and you think i'm a homer?

I remember a time when we drafted him, that you (Jira) said he was such a bad fit that the draft was tanked. LOL I remember telling you he is TKOs replacement and he would be perfect.
Anyways....BOWMAN FTW!
Oh no, I was way off on him and you were %100 right. I did not think he was a good fit as an ILB in the 3-4. Mainly because we had Willis and I thought would use Bowman as the "Ted" but with Fangio here as DC, he is just letting the both of them attack.

You are. You can't accept that Bowman is now the best MLB on our team. Take off your homer glasses.

IMO, we have 5 guys on the defense playing at pro bowl level right now... Willis, Bowman, Justin Smith, Ray Mac and Carlos Rogers. If Goldson and Spencer can stay healthy and Aldon Smith can develop on the fly this season. Our defense could get us to 8-8 and the division title.
I'm not sure I'd say all those guys are playing like pro bowlers just yet. I just can't get over how badly our secondary got torched by Dallas.
But Bowman is playing very well. Guys like Bowman and Ray Mac are really helping this defense. Because they are playing so well it prevents teams from honing in on Willis and J. Smith. Everybody must be accounted for. We have one of the top 5 front 7's in the NFL thanks to these guys stepping up.

No games. Stat's don't lie. Bowman is playing better than Willis this year. Simple as that. Willis is the old ish, Bowman is the new ish.

they used too. Now that they see what Bowman can do, I expect them to start triple and quadruple teaming Bowman. He's THAT good. Hopefully Willis can make plays now since he only has to worry about one guy blocking him.
