No shit sherlock?

Thanks for the obvious MR INSIDER. (Directed to Schefter of course.)

So when does he start not getting paid? Is it training camp that if he doesn't report he doesn't get paid?

well the dude asked him, and he answered. He wasnt breaking anything lol so pissy these days.

All this talk that we will not sign him to a long term contract (he already agreed to the 1 year deal folks) means that I bet something gets done.

I think I heard a while back that Franchised players don't get paid until the regular season. I think Franchised players are exempt from fines too.

I cant believe that's would be true. So they can not report to camp and face no repercussion?

Yeah I think so. If they refuse to sign the franchise tender they are technically not under contract.

Andrew Brandt ‏@adbrandt

No, not under contract. RT @ChiefsOrioles12 If Dwayne Bowe doesn't sign his tender and holds out can he be fined?

Picturing all NFL vets who got tagged sitting on a beach somewhere with a drink in their hand laughing about all the other schleps that are currently in camp.

Its their benefit for being Franchised.

Hi Dave! :D

I think Pioli wants to wait and see what he has with Baldwin before committing to Bowe long term.

You play that game better Lock Albert up during the year.

w/o Bowe i dont see Cassel and maybe even Pioli being here long term.
Based on the offense we saw in Denver last season when Bowe went down.
(i know we should have Charles and Hillis but teams are gonna try and stop the run and force Cassel to beat 'em)

I agree, then he can tag Bowe again.

Depends on how good the other pieces are.

Enjoy your season long audition for free agency Bowe. We will miss you.

Sorry you aren't part of "the right 53"

Franchised player can hold out until week 10 or he has to sit the whole season I think... If he were to come back at week 10, they pro rate his salary.

ya, I think you are correct.

Please hold out, Bowe.

Teach these cretins a lesson.

i'm starting to hope he does as well,
this would be our best way to get rid of Cassel.

if he does the full hold out you are going to see exactly like the scenario Vincent Jackson did if anyone followed that.

Held out for a long time, came back at the holdout deadline. Played just to play the final games, and that was it.

Welcome to the Dallas Cowboys in 2013 Dwayne Bowe!

At this point, I'm really finding it hard to give a crap what he does. Shit or get off the pot Dewey.

Sure, make Bowe the villain.

Best player on our team the last 5 years? Get the **** out.

this is a K Mart team.

Clark says that money looks better in my pocket than his

While I don't agree with the shit or get off the pot deal, we have no idea what's going on here.

I'm gonna hold blame til I find out whats going on .

I guess I haven't been keeping up with all the contract bullshit, (All work and no play) so I won't accuse you of hanging off Dewey's nut sack, Wendler. What's he asking, what are the Chiefs offering?

it's a guessing game but i find it hard to imagine the best wide receiver this team has had since the super bowl days isn't getting signed long term.

if i were guessing, i'd say it has something to do with Bowe not wanting to sign because of Cassel and Pioli's pissed.

(speculation alert) ^

Who cares?

We need Bowe. We don't sign him, Pioli is going to get fired.

This whole thing is dumb as shit. It's Jared Allen Part II, except Bowe doesn't have nearly as much baggage.

**** it. Carl dumped Allen, it got him fired. Pioli wants to repeat that shit, let him.

If you were in his spot, your ass would hold out to get paid too. You would have be a ****tard if you didnt.

Did you meltdown like this when Tamba didn't sign prior to his season on the franchise tag?

The best part if Bowe holds out the first 6 games?

Guess.

Bowe has this franchise by the nuts. Pioli's ego is probably incredibly bruised.

I wish they would have just done away with the franchise tag last summer.

0-6, and the foreshadowing of the end of the Pioli regime.

Good chance that Cassel is not qb'ing this team that far into the season.

So how did Pioli get DJ, Charles and Tamba to sign deals like they did?

Define "getting paid," what kind of figure are we talking about?

LMAO

Cassel will never, ever be benched.

It will not happen.

Amazing that people haven't realized that.

If the Chiefs were even considering the idea that he might fail this year, they would have brought in a legit backup.

Romeo does have a history of changing qb's.


Maybe it could happen.

Or felt they already had one and just needed a guy to help keep said backup motivated while helping everyone learn the offense faster.

Yup.... Thats why Orton left, he knew he had no chance to be the starter

6-10 Romeo is fired

Do we even know what injury Bowe sustained in the Finale?

Int. Arrowhead Stadium, sometime in March.


ROMEO CRENNEL: "You know, Scott, Cassel might fail horribly early in the year."

SCOTT PIOLI: "That's true, Romeo. Should we discuss a contingency plan?"

CRENNEL: "I think it would be wise, my liege."

PIOLI: "I'm thinking...and stop me if you don't like this idea...Brady Quinn?"

CRENNEL: "Scott, you read my mind."

PIOLI: "ROMEO!!! You son of a BITCH."

Who cares? I guess a good start would be, the fans, Bowe and the Chiefs management. As far as scooter, it's time for him to show he has what it takes, or he can get the **** out. His biggest screw up to date, has been Cassel, which in my eyes, is a deal breaker. At this point, I have little respect for the guy, so if he leaves, good riddance.

If he's playing really bad and this team is in the shitter early, he will. They will have no choice.

Unless they are ok with a half stadium and boo's on national TV. If they are ok with it, so am i. im ready to laugh.

We were 0-3 last year and he was playing like shit.

Didn't get benched.

He'll keep us a game or two under 500 all year, complete 57 percent of his passes for 180 yards a game, maintain a 1-1 TD-INT ratio, and be just mediocre enough NOT to get benched.

I Love You

That, and that arrogant cockbite Pioli refused to pay him what he was worth.

Which of course was a complete bullshit excuse, because Pioli NEVER wanted Orton here to compete with Cassel.

We will see. I just dont see it. If they want him to just keeep shitting the bed and end up 4-12 picking 8 or so with no shot at a franchise qb when the rest of our team is in the prime ready to step it up, then by all means go for it. IN the end, i have the Lakers to look forward too. Ill be ok. At least one of my teams is decent. Dodgers too. Its not like i am not used of the Chiefs being shitty.

Had we signed Orton, you'd be bitching about that too.

Stanzi > Orton

They WON'T go 4-12.

They'll be a game or two under .500 all year, and Cassel will be mediocre enough that Pioli will be justified in not benching him because it's easy to say the pieces of shit we have as backup QBs could throw 4 picks in a game.

Wrong. I would have been ****ing ecstatic. I was ****ing thrilled with Orton during the year and really wanted him to sign here.

No you don't. Bowe would have already signed somewhere else if the tag was gone. The tag is one of the reasons why the NFL is a million times better than the NBA.

So be it.



I'm not a fan of being able to make a player stay with you and not commit to said player. I realize they are being extremely well compensated for what they do, but they also bring in a shit ton of revenue for the owner and the city.


If a guy wants to go somewhere else to play, either pay him enough to stay with you or let him walk.

Well, when i first posted in this thread, i was under the assumption that our record would be 1-5 or something. no Bowe? whos gonna get the ball? as shitty as Cassel is, he did get Bowe the Ball, without him, ughh. The passing game will be bad. Baldwin hasnt proven a ****ing thing. Then we got nothing but midgets.

We dont know how Charles is gonna be, so chances are, without Bowe, this team after 6 games can be pretty ****ing bad.

Without Bowe we are going to see a lot of 8 yard slants to Baldwin because once he gets beyond that range, Cassel can't hit him.

Without Bowe, the o takes a big hit.


I think Baldwin has potential, but hasn't shown anything yet.


If they do let Bowe walk, it's pretty inexcusable, unless he's asking for Brees type money.

The team might be willing to pay the player though but the player might just want to play somewhere else.

With the tag, at least teams can hold onto a player for a year or two until the player caves and decides to sign long term or until they can get something in a trade.

Could you imagine how crushed you would be as a fan if the Chiefs drafted a QBOTF and then he just walked away in FA?

If they let him walk it won't be for another 2 yrs if I understand correctly.

exactly.
Baldwin may be the real deal
and if so, the offense would be even more awesome with him and Bowe together.
and you would think the Chiefs would be in a hurry to get him signed.

something isn't right with this.

I just don't think you should be able to hold a player like that against his will. It would suck to lose players like that, but I think it would put somewhat more pressure on teams to win and put forth more effort in retaining players not just knowing you can slap the tag on someone.

Yep if Bowe really does pull a Vincent Jackson the Chiefs will just tag him again and probably trade him.

If it's all Pioli, how did he get Charles, DJ, and Tamba to sign deals that he did. Same with Winston.

So you guys really think Bowe is going to sit out and not make $9.3MM this year? You think he can make that up in a long term deal the next year?

He can't make up that $9.3MM so he won't sit out. He will miss some camp.

Don't try to interject logic into the drama party.

Because none of them commanded the same kind of money.

Well, not exactly. Hali did, and he got paid.

I guarantee you the issue is that Pioli does not want to pay a wide receiver. Why? Because The Patriot Way never pays wide receivers.

Cheaps are Cheap.....

If Bowe doesn't sign I will not be looking forward to this season anymore.

Have they ever had a wr to pay?

Do you really think he will sit out rather than make $9.3MM? Did that work out for Vincent Jackson?

How ****ing dense are you people?

Bowe might hold out a few days of TC, but even that woudn't really make sense if he still can't sign a long term deal.


Forfeit 9 mil? doubtful.

well if he signs Bowe it'll be a clean sweep.

He can sit out all of TC and not be fined for it. No reason to get into camp and risk injury.
