Dwayne Bowe wants to make big-time plays in big-time games

I don't believe people are setting a standard for stats. My beef is that Bowe has the physical ability to absolutely OWN a lot of CB's in this league. He played hard and got the fat contract basically stating that's what he's getting paid to do. But, he's not... His wallet is fat, and he doesn't perform up to the level that many of us know he has the ability to. He's eating cap space that doesn't allow the Chiefs to remedy the problem through free agency. So he HAS to be the player his salary says he is. Not just when the season is on the line. But, every single snap of every single game. If Bowe wants an example of living up to your pay, then look no further than Jamaal Charles. IMO.... Bowe and Charles should swap paychecks, because Jamaal is getting ripped

I've desperately clung to my hopes for Bowe for too long, and this season has finally broken me.

I still think he has the physical talent to be very good. He just doesn't seem to have the internal part, be it brains, desire, or whatever.

I'd love for him to be prominent this post season. I just don't expect it to actually happen.

This is Dwayne Bowe's 7th season in the NFL.

Can anyone think of memorable/big time catches or games he's had during his career thus far?

I can think of two games… 2007 when the Chiefs upset San Diego and Bowe had his coming out party (8 catches 160+ yards receiving), and in 2011 against the Colts when he had that sick catch (although in that same game he also had a confounding dropped pass).

That's it.

This is only the 2nd winning season Bowe has seen. How many could there possibly be?

I remember him catching 15 TDs from ****ing Matt Cassel.

Yep.

Also, from this season alone, off the top of my head, he scored the go-ahead TD against Dallas for the lead we never relinquished and hauled in a tough pass for what should have been the game-winner against San Diego @ KC.

He even made the illustrious Tyler Palko look bad.

The big drop he had was a different game than the juggling catch. Both in Indy.

Bowe has not looked good this year. That doesn't change the fact that he's still the best WR on our team. If the Colts commit to taking Charles away in the passing game, then we need Bowe to have this sort of confidence/want-to attitude and step up.

He's under-performed on the year. He's also on the whole over-performed for his career with shitty teams and QB's.

Smith has been much better about this in the second half of the season, but he never tried to develop a rapport with Bowe because he wasn't wide open by a couple of yards in the first half of the year. There still isn't any chemistry there, and that just plain sucks.

I don't Smith think will ever develop a rapport with Bowe. Smith isn't comfortable trusting his receivers to make the play, and Bowe isn't a receiver that frequently gets the degree of open that Smith is looking for.
