Chiefs Chiefs News Etc 8/16/12 - Page 3

(In accordance with daface's mega thread thread, here's a "Chiefs News Today" thread.)

I listened to the local WHB broadcast this morning. They had Chris Carter & Jeff Chadiha on discussing the D Bo situation.

Carter said he's worked with Bowe each of the last 3 off seasons and he feels that if Bowe kept himself in shape, he could have a breakout season and "become an elite player, he is close, he just needs to raise his level of play to that next level". Carter went on to say he thinks Bowe feels he has been slighted perhaps, and will likely have a bumpy beginning to the season due to not knowing the playbook. Carter feels Bowe is "very coachable and has grown out of his immaturity", but this experience could break his spirit to play for the Chiefs in the future.

Carter was asked who wins the division, he picked Denver.

Jeff Chadiha is writing a book on WR's with Cris Carter, their comments on the scope of this book were interesting. Chadiha spent time discussing Bowe's contributions to the Chiefs and said the team has little chance of winning the division without Bowe, Carter paraphrased as well. Basically said what most of us here say -- having Bowe and the supporting cast will be "scary to other teams when those guys get off the bus" said Cris Carter.

There was a segment on Anthony Pleasant and his view of Glenn Dorsey. Pleasant said Dorsey is the leader of the DL and he likes how he is playing, yada yada, didn't really amount to a lot more than coach speak, but the "leader" comment was interesting I guess.

Chiefs TC breaks today. That is all I have right now. Maybe someone else can fill in other details, etc.

Cool. I won't. If they would unlock my shit I would create a post and introduce myself.

Good points...

oh shit ...

have we ever heard for sure what type injury it was? Foot or ankle?

either way the shit can linger

foot injuries can be career threatening

ankle injuries can linger for an entire season

Flowers should probably just sit out most of the preseason and let the new guys get the work.

Bowe is dealing with this like a business too.

If I negotiate and lose, I still show up for work the next day – that’s what adults do. If it’s a salary negotiation, I may look for another job, but I do it the responsible way, I don’t call in sick for the next week to give an “F U” to my boss.

Bowe isn’t gaining anything from being a no-show, he is hurting himself and the team.

If you sit Flowers for the entire preseason, you would be comfortable throwing him out there against Julio Jones/Roddy White week 1?

Don't whine when Reeves or Brown are getting toasted by the Falcons in week 1.

You show up even if the company contract says you don't have to show up for another 2 months?

If I understand correctly, Bowe can still negotiate the details of his tender. While that might not be happening, if you believe Pioli, say Baldwin goes down on Saturday. That could give Bowe some leverage.

You act like this is the 1st time any player has done this.
