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.

I fully expect Bowe to be huge in the 2nd half of the season. Hell, by the time week 10 rolls around all of this will be forgotten.
He has not been a focal point of the offense thus far.
The O is a work in progress, Reid will find a way to get him more involved and take advantage of his skill set

Now worried about Bowe one bit.

How much of that is on coaching?

not always. just last week Bowe caught a huge TD where he did his thang plowing guys from 20 yards out, so he's not always failing either.

keep in mind this is a whole new offensive system and Bowe isn't the only player struggling. plus, got to have blocking for a pass offense and it just isn't there so far.

Yeah, I'm sure that's a big part of it...

you like pictures, don't you.

if you had taken the time to actually read the article, you'd have read the part where the writer acknowledges Bowe is used to draw coverages so other players can benefit. complicated, I know.

Yeah I read the article... However, I can make my own observations when looking at the examples. Especially when Bowe is by far the most open reciever in the screen shot. Even the author admits that Alex locked onto Charles in the I believe third example and probably should have looked Bowes way. I'm sorry that I would think that we use our number 1 reciever who we paid a shit ton of money as more than just a decoy. Instead of giving more looks in the Titans game to a guy off the street named Chad Hall.

BS. He's not playing like he has in the past. Don't know why. For f**ks sake, RECEIVERS ARE SUPPOSED TO BEAT COVERAGE. imho...

It's just much easier to throw to Charles.

I think this is a big part of Andy trying/saying he wants to get Alex more aggressive. A lot oft imes, they're having Bowe run more downfield routes, but Alex has already decided to throw it elsewhere.

He's going to have to trust the ol, hold the ball a bit longer, and take some shots down field to Bowe.

have you watched the games?

I can remember the titans doubling Bowe about 3 times all game long and that was more 1 1/2 coverage because of a zone bracket.

McCourty didn't fear Bowe a single bit

It's not all Bowe, Alex Smith doesn't trust wide receivers. He wants to see the guy open before he makes a throw. It doesn't help that when Smith did trust Bowe on that slant, Bowe screwed up. Alex Smith is not a guy who is going to throw a receiver open.

gotta hope that Bowe makes a few plays so Alex Smith starts to trust him.


But Bowe is not getting open consistently

that's not true -- Avery was not "wide open" last week when Smiff turned it loose. Twice.

It's a work in progress. All new offenses take a while before they can gel. We're only a quarter of the season in. We'll see more big plays once Fasano gets back into the lineup and the offense settles in.
