Tampa Bay Buccaneers' Da'Quan Bowers expected to replace injured Michael Bennett Sunday - St. Petersburg Times
Bowers was rumored to be a top 5 overall talent in the draft. Can he show that?

Glad to see Okam make the practice squad

Happy Thanksgiving, Bucs fans!

A defense ranked #31 idoes not inspire confidence in one's defensive coordinator. Any head coach knows this: own up to it, Raheem- hire a full time DC and put your full focus on ONE of your jobs.

I like what Bennett has done this season

But I think we all know his ceiling isnt very high when compared to Bowers.

I think we need to see why DaQuan was rated as a top 5 talent in the draft.

Josh Freeman will be better than Matt Ryan, Cam Newton cant compete with FreeFive. Not so sure about Drew Brees.

I don't think Bennett has a low ceiling at all

In fact, he’s shown a complete game this year: speed, power, instincts, ability to play the run – everything, really.

I didnt say his ceiling was high

I said it wasnt high when compared to Bowers.

Name calling? Is that really necessary, Really? SMH

I never said he had a low ceiling

I said it wasnt as high when compared to Bowers. I believe that is an accurate description of both players potential. While still giving Bennett credit for what he has shown.

I believe that Bennett is like driving a Porsche Boxster when you have a Porsche 911 in the garage waiting to tear up the road.

Both dependable cars, but there is a reason why you paid 30-40,000 more for 911.

Josh Freeman will be better than Matt Ryan, Cam Newton cant compete with FreeFive. Not so sure about Drew Brees.
