Dwayne Bowe: I’m going to lead league in catches and touchdowns
Posted by Josh Alper on May 15, 2013, 4:22 PM EDT


The Chiefs have made several moves to bolster the league’s lowest-scoring offense and one holdover from that team believes the payoff will be a handsome one for him and one of his teammates.

Wide receiver Dwayne Bowe thinks that he’ll benefit from quarterback Alex Smith’s arrival and he thinks running back Jamaal Charles is going to find a lot of success running behind an offensive line that has added Eric Fisher at right tackle.

(Jamaal Charles) is going to lead the league in rushing this year and I’m going to lead the league in receptions and touchdowns,” Bowe said, via Adam Teicher of the Kansas City Star. “When we get in full gear and pads and close to the season, it’s going to be a show to watch.”

There’s a good chance that winds up as an overly optimistic prediction, but Bowe has every reason to be excited about the changes to the offense in Kansas City this season. Smith is the best quarterback he’s played with in the NFL and Bowe should be an excellent fit in Andy Reid’s offensive scheme. That might explain why General Manager John Dorsey said he thought Bowe was poised to become one of the best receivers in the league.

That leap would be plenty for Bowe next season, even if someone else winds up with more catches and/or touchdowns.

Unfortunately this rarely ends well.

It's generally better to do these things first and then brag about it.

Although I'd be excited after getting rid of Matt Cassel, too. Even if it is just Alex Smith.

If he points to the back of his jersey enough he will get the point across

I'm not sure what he was supposed to say - I guess nothing at all may have been alright.

I appreciate his enthusiasm and look forward to Bowe beast mode this year.

except as i tried to tell people here, while hes not great, his public perception around the league, is far better than what pessimists here give him credit for.

Alex Smiths best ability as a qb is this. No doubt in my mind he and Bowe, will excel

Good. He is clearly fired up and excited over the new regime, and the new QB. That's what I want out of my star players. I want them excited, and hungry, and ready to go prove it. It's infectious, and outstanding for the entire locker room. This is nothing but good IMO.

Hell yes, its a new lease on life for the chiefs.

Say what you want about Alex Smith, but he's better than Cassel, Quinn, Thigpen, Croyle, and Huard. That's pretty much the list of QB's Bowe has played with right?

I mean stale bread tastes pretty good if you haven't had a meal in 10 days. I'm not surprised he's excited. He should probably temper them though. It's the KC tight ends who should be celebrating.

Alex Smith the last two years has thrown more to the receivers, than backs or tight ends. Although, the chiefs have a very nice set of tight ends.....

Players coming off 2-14 seasons need to show it on the field before they start making insane statements.


If he said this as a fun joke, then disregard my bitching.

The full interview is hilarious to listen to. You can tell the new regime is allowing Bowe to be looser and more Bowe-like when he speaks to the media.
