But he was very good at fielding wobble punts from Cassel. Dude bailed out his QB on some of the more embarrassing deep balls that I've seen.
I only love Chambers because I think he's exposed our receiver corps for being as bad as they are. Before Chambers, I thought Bowe was pretty much untouchable. A million excuses for why he was underperforming.

I think Chambers has 1-2 years left in the tank and I worry that he'll disappear after he gets a big contract, as he did in San Diego. But in terms of the way he played the position, he was the only receiver in 2009 for the Chiefs that looked like he belonged in the NFL. Bowe included. He made adjustments to the ball, made the extra effort to make catches, and didn't drop passes.
