rolltyde1 0 Posted October 10, 2013 Any chance he turns things around or is the play calling by Reid and lack of throwing down field by Smith going to limit Bowe all season? I need roster spots with the loss of Julio but don't wanna drop if he might get outta this slump. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dc84 1 Posted October 11, 2013 His upside is too low. He's been parked on my bench for weeks now. I doubt I can even get much value in a trade. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I need roster spots with the loss of Julio but don't wanna drop if he might get outta this slump. why is it that this same question is asked every week so far . do you see the stats . do you see the games . there is the answer. anyone still waiting for bowe to do what he has done in the past on this team . is in for a long wait . every single week some one brings up this guy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ric0 23 Posted October 11, 2013 Smith's is Capt Checkdown to me and severely limits his upside. I would try and deal him after this week though against a favorable matchup this week. Help me out. http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=425615 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Next Generation 10 Posted October 11, 2013 I've had him in a Dynasty league for years hoping for a better QB. Dumped him this week for Reuben Randle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stosher1 0 Posted October 11, 2013 I'm hoping for one good week to increase his trade value. Right now, he's worthless! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
murf74 461 Posted October 11, 2013 Last week alone tackled at the 1 ......pass interference in endzone and stepped out on what could have been about a 40 yarder Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ampheels 3 Posted October 11, 2013 wash/rinse/repeat with these d bowe posts, see the other 82 threads about him over the past 3 weeks...not going to get anything worth a damn in a trade right now, and there are no #1 wideouts with his upside on the WW...this is simply a hold position, let him rot on your bench until he has a big game and then aggressively pursue trade options Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PATSSOX 22 Posted October 12, 2013 This is not good. This is why you dont pay guys like Bowe. I think im gonna have to play Miles Austin for Bowe this week. I got Bowe and Wilson in a trade last week and that hasnt looked very good. Dwayne Bowe - WR - Chiefs According to SI's Greg Bedard, Dwayne Bowe has been a "big problem" for the Chiefs because he's no longer able to beat man coverage. Bedard is plugged-in around the NFL and does his own film reviews. "Not sure what has happened to him," writes Bedard, "but he lacks explosion and can’t beat man coverage anymore. Defenses don’t fear him at all." We personally haven't noticed anything different about Bowe this season, other than the fact that Alex Smith isn't even trying to get the ball outside the hashmarks. Still, it's a noteworthy take from a pretty trusted observer. Source: SI.com Oct 11 - 8:17 PM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
murf74 461 Posted October 12, 2013 That article has not one single piece of fact. Who says this he doesnt say. And author who reviews films says he looks like same bowe to him without change Austin? Blah Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Gladstone 33 Posted October 12, 2013 Alex Smith football. I believe the same thing happened to Crabtree. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
H-man 12 Posted October 12, 2013 Ppl who watch his game film say he's slow and not beating single man coverage anymore. Pair that with checkdown Smith and you're looking at a player who will continue his current production throughout the duration of the season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blah No it doesnt it says this..........."We personally haven't noticed anything different about Bowe this season, other than the fact that Alex Smith isn't even trying to get the ball outside the hashmarks.

I have Bowe and cut Austin and nobody has picked him up. So I feel your pain. But I did watch last week's game all snaps. Bowe was tackled at the one, had a pass interference in endzone and stepped out on what could have been a long gain if not another TD. That's a lot of if's but if he didn't get tackled at the one would we really hesitate starting him this week? IDK, I have Bowe, Fitz and K. Allen and am not sure what I will do.

OK 'Murf' im gonna play him based on your scouting report so you better be right..................well i think im playing him. Right now i also have Fitz and Bowe in the WR slots with Thompkins in flex. But have Vincent Brown and Miles Austin wanting in. I cant help but to play the guys on Sunday night and Monday night so im reallly tempted to play Brown or maybe roll the dice with Austin. Atleast that way i wont be pissed off the entire day and can wait another day to be pissed off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am struggling between Fitz/Bowe/Allen. If I have no gut feeling at all Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
