I don't see anyway he'd want to return to a franchise in so much turmoil.
He's 63 yards from his third 1,000-yard season (in five) with the Chiefs.
Is there ANY way he doesn't test the market and look for a contending team to join?

So? Another year of a WR in his prime.

Franchise him or sign him and franchise Carr.

One of the two will be here next year.

Depends on if the next coach thinks he can be of any use. Bowe will go wherever the money is, so if we want him, we just pay him...

That's all you're interested in?
I, personally, would like to see him stay here another 4-5 years.

This is the problem with this post. D Bowe, just like 95% of all other athletes will go to wherever he gets paid the most.

Has nothing to do with contending team. That's for the guys chasing when they're 35 and only a few years left.

Honestly I think a high percentage of professional athletes could give a shit about winning. As long as I'm getting paid, I'll play wherever.

Eh...I'd rather trade him then if they don't think he'll figure into our long-term plans.

I think you misunderstood. If Bowe has the choice of signing another contract with the Chiefs or, say, New England...don't you think he'd rather play with Brady than _______ in KC?

Which contact pays more? If they're the same? Sure he'd choose Brady.

No doubt, but if he doesn't want to sign here long-term (don't have any info one way or the other) then you might as well get another year.

TBH I really don't care. He makes some great plays, and is somewhat of a threat to the opposing defense.... but I'll be damned if he can ever catch a pass that he is supposed to make. He is WAY too inconsistent for my liking.

That's who he is. He was the same way in college. He's improved some in that respect in the NFL, but he's as advertised when we drafted him.

He would like to thank The Clarks for his years here in KC. And he's sorry about dropping those passes. Whoops...

He's probably done here, Pioli will pull out all of the stops & bring in some scrubass the pats cut this offseason.

He's the best WR this club has had in 25 years. He drops on occasion but then again, he's made some catches this year that all stars make. He's vastly improved on his consistency recently and I'd hate to see him go.
Him and the other two have the makings to be the best group in the league if they had a QB that wasn't a full retard.

I've always been positive on Bowe, and while I agree a good QB could make Bowe better.... I've seen him drop too many balls that are right in his hands/chest.

I'd prefer to keep him here and for him to improve, but I wouldn't cry if he was traded.

All mini-camp Urban looked fast with great routes and hands.

Everytime I've seen him in game this year (When he's not injured), he looked slow and WTF.

I don't get what happened.

If they wanna keep him they had better offer him a contract now.

All things being close to equal a player wants to win.

If he is talking about leaving, trade him and lock Carr up. Would like to see him go, but I really don't care if he does.

Define close. ;)

I know that's hard to answer and I'm not saying players don't want to win. I'm just saying if they're only a couple mil apart? I still think DBowe goes for the money. Whoever offers more.

Probably a moot point. He'll likely get tagged anyways.

They'd have to franchise him first, no?

I hope The Chiefs get as much for Bowe as they can before the league realizes how inconsistent he is. I'm tired of watching him drop easy catches.

Every wide receiver drops passes, and most of the great ones drop them on a regular basis too. Bowe is among the best in the game. An occasional drop doesn't change that.

You can't trade him unless you own his rights which we can only do by signing him or franchising him.

LOL trade bowe because he dropped a high pass in the endzone of a game we were down 25 points in.

The ONLY way I trade Bowe is if its the only way to trade up for a quarterback which, in a way would be counterproductive for a young quarterback to lose one of the best weapons in the league.

He and carr both stay and we get a qb or start stanzi and we talking playoff.

Probably a repost & I'll have to admit to listening to NIck Wright
But supposedly Haley said some nasty things to Bowe, that had Bowe talk to his agent or Scott Pioli about
Exageration probably could be in play
