I'm sure that if Bowe was wide open by 10 or more yards he'd get thrown the ball. Honestly, that's not Bowe's game. You just have to trust Bowe to be Bowe and most of the time he'll make the play.
He also seems to be one of those WR's that's like a HB: the more he gets the ball the better he gets.

I think his numbers will slowly bounce up to what they were the last 1.5 seasons in SF...

Now, who is deflecting?
Rausch is talking about Smith completing passes.
You say, he's only making the play 53% of the time. Which is accurate - as I've pointed out, and as Rausch alreay knows, because he saw me mention the 3rd down % yesterday.
Rausch replies, "the completion percentage will come with time"
Then you somehow drag Bowe into the conversation?
You can't even keep your arguments and excuses straight.
