Matt Bowen

i also think lott is making a good showing, and Bowen is flat out bad right now. Im also impressed with some of our backup d lineman. Greg White and Ron Warner come to mind,

Bowen looked terrible.
1) Missed interception, easy play
2) Got beat inside for a couple of big completions, just looked like he flat out misread the play
3) Poor run coverage, Sean Taylor looked way better

I feel like he is turning into the weak link on our first team defense.

At this point I think everyone knows taylor is the best safety we have, its matter of who lines up next to him that we have to worry about

Nothing about Bowen stood out -- except for the easy INT that bounced right out of his hands.

So far, he's looked like he did last year -- either stinking it up, or nonexistant.

I'm not impressed.

Thank you guys for confirming my concern about Bowen's very unimpressive play. This guy is a veteran. He played a couple of years in Green Bay, he should not be playing like a rookie. All this talk about how great it is that Sean Taylor has to earn his starting position, the same needs to apply to Bowen. I don't care if he is a veteran or that he has a big contract. If he does not play well, he needs to sit on the bench or get released. We should be paying a guy big money if he is not performing at least reasonably well.
I think it is time for the coaches to try some other combinations at the safety positions with the first team defense. Just to see how it looks.

Bowen has the potential to be a big hitter, and a solid tackler, but he just sucks too much. He looked better last season thus far.
