08,

What do you mean that Bouman is a bust? Did anyone expect him to be anymore than a quality backup? If not, then I don\'t see a problem with his performance - he is a fine backup.

Don\'t remember much about Bouman, except he subbed into a game in Minnesota, and had a killer performance.

He is a back up with back up mentality . He is not going to push Brooks to keep the edge sharp and challenge him at any point . As a coach you want to see 54 1st string players and have a hard time deciding , who gets the start . With Bouman behind Brooks there is no competition factor .....

Granted I don\'t know all that much about Bouman, however is the statement fair that he is a backup that will never challange AB for the starting position fair?
From what I\'ve seen Haz refuses to (historically speaking) pull AB. This doesn\'t mean that Bouman can\'t challange for the starting position based on his ablity, but rather on politics.
