Forget about it.
Remember that 4th down in the Indy playoff? He let that Colts defender ride him out of bounds...for a defender known for his physical nature, and he let that skinny punk DB ride him out of bounds.

I never made the connection about what down we were on when he’d make those catches. That’s not the only Bowe moment against the Colts that pissed me off. In 2011, I was 100% aboard the Suck for Luck train...we were well on our way and projected to win those sweepstakes until we beat the ****ing Colts... and we wouldn’t have beaten them without Bowe being an acrobat. That sparked a mini roll that we went on and eventually, we went from front-runners to out of the sweepstakes. I think he best catch he ever had was in that game.
