Gretz' latest - Bowe not looking to good

Practice Report 9/25 Update

From the Truman Sports Complex

As the Chiefs started their final practice in preparation for Sunday’s game in Philadelphia, ILB Derrick Johnson was riding a stationary bike and WR Dwayne Bowe was practicing, sort of.

Todd Haley said both would be listed as questionable when the team turns in its injury report to the league office Friday afternoon.

On Thursday, Johnson declared himself out of the meeting with the Eagles because of a groin injury. Of course, D.J. hasn’t realized yet that he’s not the final word on whether he dressess or not. That would be Haley. But his work on the bike indicates his chances of being suited up in Philly are slim.

Bowe was on the bike patrol Thursday and the Chiefs reported him as a limited participant in practice. He was with the offense and receivers in the part of Friday’s session open to the media. But to say he was practicing would be a stretch. Bowe did not run as much as trot on his pass routes. He has what Haley called “a problem with his leg”; he was wearing a wrap on his right knee after practice on Thursday.

If Bowe can’t go, Mark Bradley may find himself back in the starting lineup. After the opener in Baltimore, he was pushed aside a bit last week for Bobby Wade.

No matter who, Haley said he needs somebody to pick up the slack if Bowe is down.

“We tell those backup guys all the time that they are only a play away,” said Haley. “Somebody has to step up in that type of situation. Somebody has to produce.”

With Johnson out, the Chiefs will have to alter their nickel defense. Last week, Johnson and Monty Beisel came in at linebacker when the defense brought an extra cornerback on the field. This week it looks like starter Demorrio Williams will stay on the field in the nickel with Beisel.

Haley said that both QB Matt Cassel and CB Brandon Flowers would be listed as probable for Sunday’s game. He also said that LG Brian Waters would be listed as questionable due to the sprained left ankle he suffered last Sunday against Oakland. Waters was a limited participant in practice on Friday.

With Waters out Cassel is going to get killed for sure.

[The Franchise]

Oh awesome....my fantasy team gets fucking better. First Welker...now Bowe. Fuck this year!

[DaFace]

I'm apparently out of the loop this week. What happened to Bowe?

[Fritz88]

I'm apparently out of the loop this week. What happened to Bowe?

He seemed fine last game. It's just something that came up a day or two ago where he was limited in practice.

If he does not play, then it will suck.

[penguinz]

I'm apparently out of the loop this week. What happened to Bowe?He broke his vagina.

[Hydrae]

Oh awesome....my fantasy team gets ****ing better. First Welker...now Bowe. **** this year!

Welker is practicing this week from what I saw last night on ESPN.

[wild1]

Demorrio Williams and Monty Beisel are the nickle backers.

This team really, really needs help at linebacker.

[sedated]

With Waters out Cassel is going to get killed for sure.

waters is out?

[Hydrae]

waters is out?

Questionable. Perhaps I should have worded that differently....IF Waters is out...

[CoMoChief]

LB's and Oline are positions of absolute need in next years draft

[CoMoChief]

waters is out?

Fuck really?

So basically we're gonna go into Philly with our 2nd team.

Kick ass all of our players that are worth a shit are hurt!

[doomy3]

Hopefully Gretz actually used the word "too."

[Warrior5]

This team really, really needs help at linebacker.

you forgot to add RT, RG, C, TE, and NT.

[Chiefs Pantalones]

you forgot to add RT, RG, C, TE, and NT.

Every other position as well lol

[ModSocks]

Oh awesome....my fantasy team gets ****ing better. First Welker...now Bowe. **** this year!

I hear ya. Im down to Chris Chambers and The rook from philly...

[The Franchise]

I hear ya. Im down to Chris Chambers and The rook from philly...

I still have Reggie Wayne but he'll be starting along side Cotchery and Sims-Walker.

[ModSocks]

I still have Reggie Wayne but he'll be starting along side Cotchery and Sims-Walker.

yep, i have Calvin Johnson. But Chambers and the rook are no help

[Sweet Daddy Hate]

Good God.

[stevieray]

bruised ego.

[MikeMaslowski]

I just need this week to go by. I keep running into this fugging raider fan that works in the building next to mine. Prick. We need to win a game. Unfortunately this one doesn't seem to be very high on the probable win percentage chart.

[Hammock Parties]

Be interesting to see how they compete this week with all these injuries. Will tell us a lot about the coaching staff.

[52decleetzu]

I know I have never posted here but why is there no talk of the Schefter report of Bowe being on the trade block?

Did I miss that thread or what?

One would think that if one of the best payers on their team was rumored to be traded it would generate some conversation. What am I missing here?

News to us. To me, at least.

Post a link, and we'll talk about it.

[OnTheWarpath15]

Or it could be that he's not on the block:

ESPN - Adam Schefter of ESPN believes that the Chiefs would gladly listen to offers for receiver Dwayne Bowe.

In a chat with readers, Schefter wrote: "... If a team out there made a good offer for Bowe, he would be gone tomorrow. Like I said, outside of [Matt] Cassel and [Tyson] Jackson, there's no Chief who can't be had for the right price. New regimes like their own players; this is not something new to Haley and Scott Pioli. This is a universal truth."

I'm wondering who's #1 if Bowe sits .. Wade or Bradley? I actually feel better about this game than Baltimore. Who knows ...I'll keep my expectations in check just in case.

This theory has always mad me laugh. Talent is talent, period. Trading a good player because you didn't draft/trade for him yourself is pretty egotistical.

[stevieray]

Bradley and Wade could be decent.

[whoman69]

Bowe wasn't looking too good before he got injured.

Trading an inconsistent, pass dropping cry baby that doesn't seem to want to put the work in to get better isn't so egotistical.

It happens all the time, just the same as GM's don't like to cut high draft choices they made because they have to admit they fucked up.

Bradley and Wade could be decent.

:spock:

Exactly.

Schefter didn't say they're shopping him.

Wow, really? I'll have to side with Mecca on this one.

Time for a new gif to encompass that kind of dumbassery:

Stay Down Bitch curse, thanks to gochiefs

[Sweet Daddy Hate]

Stay Down Bitch curse, thanks to gochiefs

LMAO

[52decleetzu]

Great.

So Bowe has not looked good at all, and is an inconsistent homosexual crybaby who does not want to put any work in to get better.

And the Schefter comment is complete bullshit. Got it.

I am guessing a late round conditional draft pick could do the trick huh?

[Hammock Parties]

Stay Down Bitch curse, thanks to gochiefs

My legend grows!

[CaliforniaChief]

Schefter's post could substitute 85% of the names in the National Football League and theoretically be correct. There's a price for everyone, save the franchise QB's and new first round draft picks that would theoretically cause a deal to be made.

I see improvement with Bowe...namely his blocking abilities and improved hands. I'm excited about his future with the Chiefs.

[Easy 6]

This post makes me fear for the intelligence of the fan base.

Glad you said it.

WTF.

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

Thats not a fan base, thats just a statement from an idiot!

Just shut up and go away. Your Ravens are faggots!

[DBOSHO]

Paw! why you g-g-gotta make me..feel....bad??

[HypnotizedMonkey]

Fuck!!

[Chief Faithful]

What am I missing here?

A brain.





Go away, retart.
