The problem with that comparison is Bowe's top end highest ceiling isn't Johnson's he doesn't have the same natural gifts.

Bowe's top end higheset ceiling remains to be seen.

What gifts are you talking about? Speed?

Sorry. I haven't read the whole thread

Bowe's ceiling is Anquan Boldin, if he becomes that remains to be seen.

Boldin has missed 16 games in the last few years, injuries are a slight concern too

Your opinion is worth what it's worth.

Basically, he doesn't have Johnson's top end speed, they both have the huge body, Johnson has better hands and runs better routes.

Bowe can work his ass off to catch better and run great routes but I don't think he'll ever be quite as natural as Johnson is and there's nothing he can do to get that speed.

What's stopping him from putting up Johnson numbers?

Well when you get hit in the face with a helmet it tends to cause one to miss some games.

I'd wager Johnson is a bit faster than Bowe and Boldin both.

I think it's the difference in top end speed.

If Bowe remains with the Chiefs, Haley's going to push him to become a better route runner with more consistent hands.

But as Jimmy Johnson used to say, you can't coach speed.

Read through the thread again.

He can put up the numbers, he just doesn't cause the same problems so to speak.

Boldin doesn't possess the gifts Johnson does but he puts up numbers he just does it a different way.

Guys like Johnson are valued a bit more because he has everything, he isn't just the big possession guy.

Take your own advice.

BAH! Nevermind. I suck at life today.
