SI : Chiefs have a problem and his name is Dwayne Bowe
His performance so far this season has been underwhelming. He is in a position to clock in his worst performance in the NFL so far and is projecting to have 54 receptions for 586 yards w/6TD.
Is his problem that defenses are keying in on him... or is it that, as suggested by Greg Bedard, that Bowe has lost a step and is no longer a top tier WR? http://mmqb.si.com/2013/10/11/greg-b...preview-notes/ Quote:

His big problem is that he isn't getting open for Alex Smith. They need to draw up some plays for him in crossing patterns more because that seems to be the only way alex will throw to him.

The problem is... Bowe has never really been great at getting separation consistently and now he has a QB that does his damndest to not throw to a covered WR. Bowe thrived on our past crappy QBs throwing into coverage so he can muscle the catch.

Agreed. But opposing teams have to cover him so that opens up other options within the 5 yard cutoff.

Something else to think about is that we as fans have no clue how much of this offense Reid is willing to open up at this point. It takes time to get all the players comfortable and clicking so we may have to withhold judgment until the 2nd half of the season realistically.

Bowe is fine, they just need to build a rapport

According to Smith, Bowe gets double teamed which opens things up for Avery.

Having one of the most conservative QBs in history will make a WR that doesn't get much separation die. In the NFL there is no such thing as wide open so this dink and dunk thing is the best we got going for us until either the QB position is upgraded or we draft three pro bowl WRs that can get open and get separation on a HOF level every snap.

Hell, he threw like, 5 ****ing one-read slants to Chad ****ing Hall in the 1st quarter last game. Why is that so difficult do the same shit only with a legit WR like Bowe? Just get that man some ****ing targets. |
