If Dwayne Bowe is going on a seam route against single coverage, I should be able to chuck it up and have a reasonable expectation that Bowe can get it before the CB magically turns around at the exact right time and picks the ball off.

My advice on this here is just not to throw to Bowe on streaks unless he literally has like 5 steps on the CB. I only ever throw streaks to receivers with 94+ speed and only if I see that they have a step on the CB with no safety looming over the top.
It works out because you'll get a chance to take the top off and heave one deep a few times a game if the guy you're playing against ever mixes up his coverages; and if he always has 2-deep safety help, it should be easy enough to pick him apart in the intermediate range.
... But yeah, just don't throw it to Bowe on deep routes with the CB on his hip. The deep jump ball in this game just isn't exactly life-like.
