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?

6. The Chiefs will win a lot of games with their current formula: good defense that takes the ball away (15 times so far) and an offense that doesn’t turn it over (just five) for an NFL-leading plus-10 in giveaways/takeaways. But to beat the good teams, they’re going to have to start stretching the field. Defenses know QB Alex Smith is overly conservative, so they’re dropping a safety down and playing a lot of man. The Chiefs have a big problem with receiver Dwayne Bowe. Not sure what has happened to him, but he lacks explosion and can’t beat man coverage anymore. Defenses don’t fear him at all.

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.

Then Smith should trust Bowe more.

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.

Well said. He isnt fast. He isnt quick he cant shake coverage. He is a good reciever. No more. And with a quality QB who can find the open guy Bowe will suffer

I have replayed 4 of the games and watched to see what's up with Bowe. You are on the money when you talk about separation or in this case, lack thereof. Most of the time he just isn't getting open.

no, that isn't true. Smiff doesn't spend ALL GAME throwing at tight spots, that is true. But, he will do it -- hence, we see him throw into tight cover during the fourth qtrs. It's working for this team.

The disconnect between what people are saying about Bowe (he's lost a step, he looks like a slow tight end) and what people want to hear about Bowe (Everything's fine, Alex just won't throw him the ball!!!!1!!!111!!) is growing wider by the week.
