92: elite creator

One number for how well Bowers has actually played lately, not a talent rating. 70% is the skill profile, weighted towards efficiency; the rest is how steady his games are and whether he still produces against the better defences. Ranked against every qualified tight end; 99 is the best. Over the last three seasons he scores 86 (#15 of 62).

The read
  1. Buffalo rank 22nd against intermediate throws, which make up 24% of Bowers's targets.
  2. Don't force deep balls: they've been Bowers's worst return (-0.13 EPA a target), and Buffalo are 16th there.
  3. Work the left side: 34% of his targets go that way and Buffalo rank 25th defending throws there.
  4. Contested catches aren't his edge this week: he's 11th percentile for separation and 48th for hands, and Christian Benford, Taron Johnson and Tre'Davious White all allow fewer yards per target than the average corner (7.4).
  5. Free data doesn't show who covers whom on each snap, so this is the defence's profile, not a confirmed one-on-one.
