Strong Safety

All I'm saying is that if this coaching staff thinks he can do it (at least eventually), who are we to argue?

He looked great this weekend.

MATT BOWEN WAS HORRIBLE.

He was burned by the official has-been and totally overrated WR of the NFL known as Keyshawn Johnson against the Bucs last year.

Burned by Keeshawn???? They blitzed the linebacker who was covering the slot reciever. Bowen rolled up and had the deep route to cover. Keeshawn came accross on a post and took it to the house. I would say that was our great d-coordinators call. No way he could have come accross and in fact it really was Iffy's responsibility on the play.

MATT BOWEN WAS HORRIBLE.

Also, go back and look at the Miami game last season. He took a terrible angle on the long TD pass in the Dolphins' first drive, and got completely turned around when he had a clear path on Ricky Williams on another TD run. Bowen was victimized early and often last year. If he was worth anything, the Packers would never have let him go.
OK I went back and watched the highlight. Smoot went for the interception whcih was a thrown to the slot reciever in the flat. This was not a long throw but more like a 7 yard out pattern which smoot just missed. He had deep resposibility on #84 who champ supposly had locked up. If you watch the play Champ got abused by the reciever in the blocking. When Bowen cam accross to get him he got tied up by Champ's inabilities.

He defiently took a bad angle at Ricky on the run, I give you that. Bit hard towards the weakside and then had no chance.

I think he has been the best of all safties for awhile which does not say alot. But he is a starter and can rock the recievers which gives them that fear of going accross.
