Is this where we discuss Bowman getting robbed of DPOY??

He was more deserving than Kuechly.

 

[49ersaaron8]

They both had great years its tougher for Bowman to get it when he plays next to Willis. Kuechly is the undisputed QB of that defense and that defense had an incredible year.

Thomas Davis is no joke either.

 

[49ersaaron8]

True but Kuechly's range is unmatched IMO. Bowman does certain things better like shed blockers but Kuechly looks like Jim Carey from the Mask flying around on the field. Just like earl Thomas only he's further back away from the view of the camera alot of the times.

 

[red80]

Hard to compare them because Kuechly is has a bigger role in his defense(he's the mike linebacker in their 4-3) and like aaron said bo plays next to willy. Both are amazing players and either would be a great choice but it's a joke Bo didn't even get 1 vote wtf? IMO Earl Thomas should of received more votes. Take him out of that secondary and the entire defense doesn't work the same.



Hopefully Bo recovers completely from his injury. We are blessed to have such an elite talent after all these years of having Willis. 

 

[GreenNGold89]

Wait...Bo didn't even receive a vote? Did I misread that?

Associated Press named Luke Kuechly its 2013 Defensive Player of the Year.

It's the second straight year Kuechly has won a major award after being named Defensive Rookie of the Year in 2012. He received a total of 19 votes to beat out Robert Mathis (11.5), Earl Thomas, (7.5), Robert Quinn (6), Richard Sherman (4), and J.J. Watt (2).

 

[nothingtol0se]

lol wow.

not even ONE vote for bowman. homer aside, but that is mad disrespectful

 

[danikerhino]

I think it's because everyone think's Kuechly a soloist out there and has no help whereas Willis's visibility hampers Bowman's own body of work. I personally think Kuechly covers more ground than Bowman which makes him seem more involving and seem more of a difference maker.

 

[sylvestermcgrizzly]

He shouldve got some votes. Could take half of Mathis' and Thomas' votes and slide them to Bo and I would've been happy with that. But none? Son...

watching a lil of the NFC championship before I go see the game with my pops...looked so damn good in the 1st half minus settling for a couple FGs...

 

[nawghtyhare]

I know I ain't the only one watching this and thinking how it shoulda been us
The wound has reopened
I'm sad again |I

 

[townbidness]

Kap would have had record breaking QB runs on that poor defense.

U just opened it wider

 

[red80]

Kap played a million times better against that defense IN Seattle. Seattle looks so much faster and more physical than Denver.

 

[49ersaaron8]

Hate giving Seattle props but their defense is freakishly big and fast when this game is over they will be talked about in the best ever
Class.

I hope their team breaks up after this season
And they fade back to mediocrity

 

[49ersaaron8]

That could very well happen but with their future QB on offense and their QB on defense Earl Thomas locked up for lengthy time I see them being a team we will constantly having to battle with them for playoff seeding. What happened to the ravens last year was more
So a changing of the guard due to age Seattles will be salary cap ramifications but their drafting recently ranks up there with some of the best so don't count on it . Niners just gotta stick together and get better

 

[hyper cutter]

seattle's defensive play will influence the way teams draft for years to come, in my opinion.

i think we're gonna see faster, smaller guys rather than the strong beasts like bowman and patrick.

or just adderall.

what? only guy that's small on that defense is earl thomas. their cornerbacks are bigger than most teams' wide receivers and kam chancellor, who is a strong safety, is bigger than both of our middle linebackers. all their linebackers are big and fast as well so i dont know what you're talking about.

 

[tsamshox]

This is like a nightmare come true right now....Gotta face all these Seahawk fans tomorrow at work

 

[MON5T3R]

@adbrandt: 49ers a likely #2 in the final BCS rankings...

it's easier just to block that guy and not see his garbage posts 

 

[lb510]

Lets not be fooled Manning would have had some success against our secondary. Like the Seahawks thought I think we would have put up some points.

 

[dakid23]

IMO the NFC championship game was the Superbowl.

See you guys next year!
