I'm not even sure how to respond to this... You've managed to render me speechless. Congratulations might be in order.

We see lack of motivation from pro athletes all the time. Hell, look at our very own Dwayne Bowe.

Superstar talent but no motivation until Haley got hold of him.

And Bowe took advantage of a terrible offensive roster to get the contract that he did inbetween regime changes.

:facepalm:

Bowe had 992 yards and 5 TD's his rookie season (with Huard and Croyle as his QB), 1,022 and 7 TD's with Croyle and Thigpen his second season

He then fell off the cliff with only 589 yards the year Haley arrived and 4 TD's the year Haley arrived.

He had good stats his first two years then fell off because, and wait for it, he lost motivation.

That is, until Haley showed up.

Good grief, I'm not sure why everyone thinks Poe is some uber-talented, non-replaceable piece of the puzzle.

Focus on him for an entire game.

Most of it, he's either getting owned by a single blocker, on his ass, or both.

Yep, a year later and Dorsey would have known that Bowe was going into the tank as soon as he got a big contract. Dorsey would have had another option ready.

Bowe was lucky

of course, Bowe was then stupid and gave the Chiefs an out of that big contract

It appears that Poe has contracted fat-man disease. Happens to a ton of fatties in the Dline. He hasn't improved nearly as much as he should have.

You don't give a guy like that a huge contract.


Of course, Sutton playing him 73% of the defensive snaps didn't help. Next Dlinemen was at 53%.


Of course, CP loves them some Sutton.

Says the person giving far too much leeway to the alleged "leader" of the offense who, incidentally, sucks more shit per capita than Eric Berry could in 10 lifetimes and 100 years of an NFL career.
But I'm sure there are other morons who would agree with you.

Oh look....

Suck it up, buttercup. Some Chiefs have actually earned their bones, and will be retained/paid for value that exceeds the stat-line.

If he played 73% of the snaps he shouldn't be overweight unless he took a lot of plays off:D

This is a bit harsh but we definitely need a front 7 retooling. These guys can't stop the run or rush the passer worth two shits and that goes for everyone outside of Houston and DJ who are rarely ever on the field.

Poe will land on his feet for a decent contract somewhere next year, but if it comes down to either Berry or Poe, you take Berry all day ever day (even in spite of Laz not thinking player leaders are important).
