How good is he???? Last 6 games (7 counting today) he has 12 TDs. This guy is a monster.

He is pretty damn good....just imagine if he played with a pro bowl qb.

Traded him for Peyton Hillis. My RBs were Benson, McCoy and Greene so I clearly needed RB help. My WRs were Lloyd, Holmes, Roddy White and Bowe.
But yeah, Dwayne Bowe is good at football.

Glad I drafted him. He is on some kind of tear. Cassell isn't a bad qb either.

Dwayne Bowe has been my fantasy mancrush for a few years now. I drafted him in 3 of my 4 leagues and I have been rolling lately because of him. Everybody was giving me a hard time about him at the start but I've been loving the last 7 weeks.

Honest question. What the hell made you think Bowe would slow down today after the last 6 weeks? He has been so good, you have to ride it out.

I drafted him 3rd in one league and people were giving me so much grief over it, but I didn't want to risk not getting him. I'm on a 6-0-1 run though and set to win this week. Loving every minute of it.

I lost my first 2 games when he was pretty bad. But since then Im 9-0...6 of those wins are directly related to him.

Yea, I considered giving up Bowe early in the year, but I'm certainly glad I held onto him. He and Hillis have my fantasy team rolling now, but it may be too late for me to make the playoffs.

Two word answer: Todd Haley. You never know what he is going to do. Some games he'll run the crap out of the football and throw it 15 times (and give more touches to Thomas Jones for whatever reason). Then you have games like this...I've been playing him the past few weeks but subbed him out for mike Wallace today. Dumb move

I also thought Bowe was bound to slow down. Wrong haha
I have one spot and I have to choose between Steve Johnson, Bowe, and mike Wallace. My set in stone starters are roddy white and Marcus colston

Do you mean Charlie Weis jordo? I'm loving Bowe because I picked up Cassel really late in the draft (our league starts 2 QBs a week). Everyone else grabbed 2 more well established starters much earlier than I got Cassel and I was able to get some solid depth at RB and WR. I didn't think Cassel would be having as good of a year as he is, but was pretty confident that Weis' system would allow him to put up some decent numbers.

Why they run Thomas jones so much is absolutely beyond reason. Jamaal Charles had the highest YPC in the NFL but jones was getting more carries. I'm not even a Kansas City fan and it makes me mad. The sole reason they lost to Oakland was that Jones got way more carries than Charles. There were a couple 3rd and 1s that they ran Jones and he didn't get the first when Charles may have, and it came back to bite them. I really like KCs team, but they are killing themselves if Charles doesn't have at least twice the carries that Jones gets.

Yeah I guess I could go ahead and throw Weis in there too. I realize he is the OC, but this sort of crap (odd play calling and refusal to give the ball to your best players) dates back to last year while Weis was up at Notre Dame.
