How high is Bishop's ceiling?

He's playing well when Lewis subs in for Poyer too though... I'm not saying Poyer definitely isn't the reason, but shouldn't his play drop significantly on passing downs when Lewis comes in then? 

 

Could it be just that something clicked for him and coincided when Poyer started playing, or maybe more that Rapp was the issue and brining in any replacement level player would have facilitated Bishop's ability to only have to think about his role and not covering for Rapp?

 

Hancock is mainly coming in at safety on passing downs. Lewis is playing dime. It could be it just "coincided" with JoPo going in. I suspect not though. I suspect a proper vet who actually knows football is making a significant difference.

Poyer playing instead of Rapp has really helped him IMO. 

would not hurt to hire Poyer as an assistant secondary coach, I think its safe to say Bishop is where he his today because of Poyer.  I'm also somewhat surprised how Poyer is not sticking out in games in a bad way.

Seriously,

He is coming along really well.

 

Glad they didn't listen to the "bust" calls we all heard.

He has the potential to be the greatest of all time.  We will build a statue for him.

I think he's a bit too good looking to ever be really great

 

Plus he does too many TV commercials... or at least he eventually will.
