Q&A with DWAYNE BOWE -7/31
Jul 31, 2008, 12:00:40 PM

http://www.kcchiefs.com/news/2008/07...ayne_bowe_731/

Q: Are you anxious to go up against somebody else for a change (against Minnesota)?

DWAYNE BOWE: “Always anxious, never nervous. Always trust yourself. I’m going to put on a show tomorrow.”

Q: What are we going to see from you?

BOWE: “A lot of excitement. A lot of energy. A lot of great plays.”

Q: Is this when the show comes out for real?

BOWE: “Let’s see. Is there 80,000 fans here? I’ll give you a preview. I’ll give you the ending of it, I don’t want to give you the whole show, then you won’t come to the game. I’ll give you a little taste. Like a movie trailer.”

Q: Herm looks like he’s leaning on you, maybe depending on you to help communicate with the guys. Is that the case?

BOWE: “That’s the case. I learned a lot last year.”

Q: What about rooming with QB Brodie (Croyle) and waking up to Lil Wayne?

BOWE: “I’m trying to get him hip. The hip-hop world. He’s country.”

Q: Does he like it?

BOWE: “Some days he does, some days he doesn’t. There’s more days where he likes it than where he doesn’t.”

Q: Do you watch his hunting DVDs?

BOWE: “Oh no no no. If he wants me to watch that, he’s got to listen to a whole Lil Wayne catalog.”

Q: You’ll have to take him to a concert. It seems like you have a bond now. You have to have that right?

BOWE: “You have to. If he likes what I do here on the field then he tells me, you know, what to do and what situations we need to work on. It’s more fun this way.”

Q: Do you feel like one of the veterans already?

BOWE: “I don’t feel like an old guy. I feel like a guy that’s been here two years. You know, Eddie (Kennison) was telling me how to do it and mentoring me. Obviously it paid off. I want them to look at me as their peer and to follow in my footsteps.”

Q: There’s been a quick evolution of this wide receiver corps in just one year. You guys are big out there now.

BOWE: “Big and fast. Real big and fast. I just can’t wait for when the lights come on, I want to see what those guys got. Anybody can come out here and practice, but when you got 80,000 fans, that’s when the show begins. I know my guys are going to do a great job.”

Q: Being the leader of the wide receiving corps, that’s a big change for you isn’t it?

BOWE: “It’s a big change, but like in college, you know my first year I was a little behind just like I was my first year here, but in my second year I took over. And that’s what I plan on doing, I plan on taking over and being the man from here on out.”

Q: Who do you look to if you’ve got something you need to work on?

BOWE: “Tony (Gonzalez). Tony knows a lot, man. Just walking in after practice and during practice and even on the field he’s doing something extra. That’s what it takes to get to the Pro Bowl.”

Q: What do you have to do this year to win?

BOWE: “Play together. Play all four quarters. We need to make sure we play all four quarters hard.”

Q: What about this new offense?

BOWE: “I like this new offense. It’s a change to throw the football – it’s a great change. The wideouts, you know, we love it. Everybody’s firing off the ball and blocking down field.”

This is what i want. Be flashy, show some excitement. Show you care. Show that you want to win.

I said in the other thread. Fans will turn on Bowe. Its going to happen. That just makes me like the kid even more. I love it.

I agree. I can stand it if he can put his money were his mouth is. I prefer a player that shows humility and class, but Bowe isn't that guy. Man I used to love it when Allen would score a touch down and hand the ref the football. Like, hey I've been here before and I'll be here again. Now lets get back to business.

Let's hope Eddie last year and Tony for the next couple will keep his head in check...

Go all of that and then some.
We're not winning the SB anytime soon might as well have a great player that wants to win on OUR side.
Act a fuggin fool.

I noticed this too. That would be a WONDERFUL change!

**RealSNR** · 07-31-2008, 12:04 PM

Sounds like locker room cancer. Cut him.

Chief Faithful · 07-31-2008, 12:10 PM

I love his confidence. This guy is a #1 WR and he knows it. This guy will become the best WR in the West and it may happen this year.

I completely agree. He stepped up huge as a rookie ... he'll get even better from here on out.

blueballs · 07-31-2008, 12:14 PM

he's shows a playfulness
that's good

I agree and I think the team needs a playmaker with his nature. I think his words will help keep thinks loose and will challenge the players at mid-season when guys have a tendency to let up a little.

blueballs · 07-31-2008, 12:15 PM

he may have to put up with a string
of less than stellar QBs

beach tribe · 07-31-2008, 12:45 PM

I have no problem with Bowe's attitude.

He's confident. Most Playmaking WRs are.

I think he's playing a game, or a role more than anything(not like CJ, who is a genuine Jackass.) As long as he backs it up on the field, I think it's good for the team.
