6 (six) games. Call me in May and tell me all about how he sucks, but not after 6 games. Lowell earned his money when he was on the field last year, the injury was hardly his fault. Lowell has actually looked strong defensively, so I'm not prepared to write him off as damaged good just yet.
Meanwhile we haven't been really out of a game yet so I don't see why a bit of early season scuffling is reason for this wholesale panic.
