bowe was just better


ugh, no he wasnt. they each did certain things better than the other but all you have to do is look at the stats.

i dont think its even in doubt that Clayton was our 2nd best reciever ever. Bowe is top 5 to me. but outside of his last year he wasnt that solid of a reciever. he never had a 1,000 yard season.


and Bowe wasnt really "faster" than Clayton. Clayton was clocked at a 4.52 and Bowe a 4.51. atleast thats not enough to brag about.

and clayton played along D. Henderson who was a very solid reciever and outshined him.

you cant say that Bowe was "just" better and NOT say IMO. bc thats all it is, your own opinion, not a definite fact.

the only fact yo can base it on is statistics, and Clayton has him beat im almost everything outside of TD's

well he did have to split catches with another 1st round pick and a 3rd round pick at WR. clayton didn't have that kind of competition late in his career (he did have reed his freshman year)

yes, he was

clayton was not fast. he ran a 4.71 at the combine. otherwise he was pretty athletic, and he was 6-2 and change (like bowe), but he was not fast

bowe ran in the 4.5s and then ran a 4.40 at the LSU pro day. clayton ran a 4.7 and a 4.6 and then ran like 1, 4.5 at the pro day. huge difference

and the fact that bowe has done something outside of 1 fluke year in the NFL
