    — Two plays later, Ryan Bowman and Ben Burr-Kirven combined on a touch sack of Browning.

    It's hard to fathom all that try-hard in the same place, at the same time...

    I don’t have a problem with Ryan, since he is not eating up a scholarship.
    According to Jood, he is eating up a scholarship. Earned one after last year ala Myles Bryant.

    So..... yeah. Two of the starting scholarship linebackers are little white dudes.

    Hooray...:.

    If Bowman was a 4 star out of high school, guys like you would be yanking off to a good freshman season. I’m expecting a big season from him.
    That would probably mean that he was athletic and a potential nfl prospect down the road
    This, how many 6’0 DE are in the league?

    Ryan Bowman very well could have a great season, but if he can't get do anything against the three good teams we play every year then we're still fucked. Putting up double digit sacks against shit teams is fine, but we were going to win those games anyway.

    If he walks into Atlanta and gets 2 sacks and a forced fumble then we'll love him.

    He’s played one season and I’m sure you love tons of past Husky players that underwhelmed against good competition. I remember Danny Shelton doing most his damage against shit teams.

    I like Bowman. He was good last year as a pass rusher.

    I guess I worded that poorly, I love all our players including Bowman. And I think Bowman is a really good player, I just don't think he's the 'answer' to our lack of an edge rush in important games.
