I doubt it. I get the impression he does little other than show up for practice and the games.

Agreed, Bowe is a bum.

rocks · 12-22-2013, 03:52 PM

He is a great #2 and has been since we got him. Not a thing has changed with him IMO.

scho63 · 12-22-2013, 03:57 PM

His route running sucks! Soft like a limp noodle

**007** · 12-22-2013, 03:58 PM

The whole team was shit today other than colquit

GloryDayz · 12-22-2013, 04:10 PM

I would love to see him gone but I don't think they'll get rid of him. That being said, I'd sure look to find somebody who's a bit faster than him. He has great size, but has no clue about how to use his hands to compliment his body size.

I'll say this, unlike many franchise WRs. I don't think any other DC game-plans around him. At his price, that's pretty bad..

Bowe wasn't the reason we lost today. It wasn't the current regime that gave him the contract. All you can do is let him play out the contract and cut him loose when it's done. If we start whiffing again like we did when we drafted Baldwin, then I'll be worried.

Bowe just signed a new deal this year.

Best case at this point is move him to the slot a la Boldin, but he certainly doesn't have Anquan's fire for the game.

I'm pretty sure that they were seriously considering a dump of Bowe after the franchise tag year when they drafted Jon Baldwin, but Baldwin turned out to be so bad that they didn't have any choice but to give Bowe another deal. Add to that that the WR position is and has been very thin for the past several years. They got stuck with him because that's all they had.

Probably missed the boat on Keenan Allen or Terrance Williams when they dropped last year. Allen was oft-considered the #1 WR until he posted a slow 40. However, they didn't have much at tight end either. Beyond Charles, heading into the 2013 Draft, this team was really short talent wise at the offensive skill positions and still is suffering from that.

All I know is that they better be looking at some guys with good hands who runs good routes. I'm not really giving two shits about a dude running a 4.35 40 if he can't hold onto the ball over the middle. Guys like Pitt's Devin Street, BYU's Cody Hoffman, Texas' Mike Davis.

Bowe just need to step up and play at a better level

I don't think he can play any better than this. He either lacks the understanding to what he needs to do in order to make these catches (focus and the ball, and use his hands [away from his body] to make catches), or he doesn't have the talent to make those things happen.

I seriously would love to see him run faster, but I don't see him getting any faster. I'm just concerned that he can't watch Tony Gonzalez tape and see how it's supposed to be done, then do it. And he may not be a TE, but he sure isn't a prototypical WR because of his lack of separation speed.

Yah like Mr. Laz said we already payed him so I don't think he is going to change anything

Well even if he's dead weight (which he is) that we can't get rid of (which we prolly can't), it doesn't mean you don't start hiring other players who don't suck as much as he does on so many crucial plays. Like cASSHOLE used to do in the packet, when Bowe needs to make a catch, he shits his diaper.

Mr. Laz · 12-22-2013, 04:25 PM

too late, we already paid him.

i think we already tried to trade him and couldn't.

gosampel · 12-22-2013, 04:30 PM

Didn't he come to KC with some issues coming in? Like he wouldn't sign on time or something , I knew he was trouble with stuff like that
