Bowman should sign the first contract we offer him...we are not going to let him get away, we'll franchise him for back to back years like we are most likely going to be doing to Goldson.

besides, I don't think the average for top MLBs is going to cost us much.

Not sure what happened there and I am not 100% serious.. But, both LB's are great and the coaches know when to play which one. It worked, Bowman caught a game changing INT.

WOOT!

Go Niners!

Yeah but he's not on Willis' level yet. I've never seen a LB make so many plays on pass defense as Willis.

I mean I love Bowman and he's definitely a top-5 MLB in the NFL right now, but Willis was not on the bench in favor of Bowman because of the pass defense. It must've been for another reason.

Harbs said after the game it was a situation substitute. That must mean it was because of coverage. I think this speaks to how good Bowman really is. And he came through with the HUGE pick to solidify the coaching staff's decision. I love having great coaching.

yeah but Bowman's speed in madden is only 83
Why is it so hard to admit that Willis hasnt been that dominant and game changing as in the past. And oh yeah, as a result, Bowman is playing better than him. We have to admit that he's not been dominant since the 2nd part of last season.

Bowman is good plays for coverage than Willis.. Willis is best the tackles than Bowman.. They are good together for defense that opposite!
We're debating who the better player is, I'm just glad they're both on our team!
