Bowe on Croyle - He’s a little bit country…
I saw this over at Arrowhead Pride and thought I should share it here as well.
Funny quote from D-Bowe at the UWRF site:
After practice, Chiefs wide receiver Dwayne Bowe joked with reporters about rooming with quarterback Brodie Croyle. “Brodie is old school. I know he is young but he is the old school type.” Bowe went on to talk about how he is trying to get Croyle to like hip-hop music. When asked if he would listen to Croyle’s country music Bowe said, “I would listen to it. At the very least I would give it a shot and learn the lyrics.” He is still waiting for Croyle’s wife to mail them some country/rock music. Near the end of the interview, Bowe said that tomorrow night will be just a little preview of what to expect this upcoming year.
I think this is great to have our QB and top WR rooming together, they need to be on the same page as much as possible.

Chiefs Defense of 07
The Kansas City Chiefs defense held up rather well last season considering that they were on the field most of the game. Giving up almost three touchdowns a game is normally something to commend, but when you could count on a tired defensive unit playing close to 40 minutes a game, it is not so bad.
Bad was St. Louis. Tickets to Rams games saw opponents score nearly four touchdowns a game. The Rams offense was similarly dreadful last season and left the ill-equipped defense on the field to become the “greatest defense to run against on turf.”
No, the Chiefs were not too bad in reality. Unfortunately, in the short term, the defense is going to get worse. After facing a situation where Kansas City could not resign the key to the defense, the front office traded him, Jarad Allen, to the Minnesota Vikings for a first-round and two third-round draft picks.
The Chiefs sacrificed this season, one in which they were admittedly were not going to do much for the future. It was the right move. The team also lost Ty Law, but on a team building for the future, it made little sense to resign a 34-year-old cornerback.
In the meantime Patrick Surtain will take the top spot at corner and become the mentor to rookie Brandon Flowers. Flowers and safeties Bernard Pollard and Jarrad Page form the future of the Kansas City secondary. First round draft pick Glenn Dorsey is expected to eventually become as big of a hassle as Allen was on the line and will play immediately in a rotation at defensive tackle with Ron Edwards and Alfonso Boone.
The defense might have a tough year this season at Arrowhead Stadium, with no chance to make the Super Bowl, and no chance to take the division away from the San Diego Chargers, but they will at least be a welcome change to the Royals or the prospect of having to watch the Cardinals.

The Scoring Drought of 2007
For the first time in years last season there was a drought in Missouri. It was uncomfortable. It was annoying. It was hazardous to our health. It was a massive scoring drought that went up and down Interstate 70 and effect people in St. Louis and Kansas City.
Yes football fans last year was the scoring drought that left two football teams without much hope. Kansas City Chiefs fans suffered under Herman Edwards, when they had previously thrived under Dick Vermeil. St. Louis fans used to Rams tickets to the “greatest show on turf” suffered as the scoring machine finally had a breakdown.
St. Louis sports fans at least had the St. Louis Cardinals to look forward to in the spring. Kansas City sports fans got to wait until another the team, the Royals could not score. The Rams are simply hoping they can keep the same pieces regroup and return to their show stopping ways.
The Kansas City Chiefs have taken a different approach, rebuilding. Fans at Arrowhead will not necessarily see a futile attempt at an NFL season though. The offensive line has been revamped, leaving only Pro Bowl guard Brian Waters back from last season. The rest of the unit is either untested (center Rudy Niswanger) or rookies (Branden Albert). Either way the line could not possibly be as bad as last season..
Last season the Chiefs allowed 55 sacks. That is 3.4 a game, 3.4 times the quarterback went down with countless other times the quarterback had to avoid pressure and make errant throws that went for incompletions or interceptions. Last year’s Chiefs tickets saw Damon Huard and Brodie Croyle struggle in futility to get the ball moving.
This season should not be so bad. Croyle is a young quarterback, specifically in his third year, and was drafted due to some kind of potential. Having more than three seconds to drop back and read the defense will do wonders for his development. He should also get more time because Larry Johnson is back from an injury plagued season.
Larry Johnson will receive a lot of attention after two previous seasons with over 1,700 yards. Croyle should be in charge of a much improved offense with perennial Pro Bowl tight end Tony Gonzalez and emerging receiving threat Dwayne Bowe. It would be nice if Croyle had a third option other than Johnson, but getting a whole new line was a mighty gift in itself.
The Chiefs will not reach the Super Bowl this season, but they will also not be as dreadful to watch this year. They may even be able to battle the Raiders or the Broncos for second or third place in the AFC West.

Man Crushes and Sports
Before I get onto some rules of the “man crush” I decided since recently there has been a lot of talk about man crushes involving Brett Favre I would start there.
One blogger goes on to confess his love for Brett Favre:
- Dear Brett,I love you. And I always will. You taught me more about myself than I even knew existed. You earmarked each and every one of my formative years with amazing seasons, filled with excitement and thrills.
and goes on to say:
- You cannot play for another team. It just isn’t right.
You have to give it everything you’ve got to convince the Packers to take you back or you need to stay retired. There is no room for anything in the middle.I’m fragile right now, Brett. I want you to know that I support you, but this is too painful to watch all this. So for now, I am going to try to avoid Sportscenter… let me know when this is settled.
Full letter here.
Another blogger has decided he just can’t take it anymore…
- At one point, I might have married Brett Favre.Not that I am averse to the female gender, but, instead, why would I not want to spend the rest of my life with one of the most exciting NFL players and seemingly coolest guy ever?
and breaks up with Favre:
- Today, I am breaking up with Brett.Relationships are built on trust, and Brett has violated that trust. Like any bad relationship, I should have recognized the signs long before it came to this point — the uncertainty of retirement before the 2007 season, how well he played last year, and how well the Packers played as a team last year. Love is blind, and when Brett broke down in tears at his retirement press conference, I took his word he was done for good.
The letter to Brett continues and ends with a “I don’t even want to be friends anymore”. Come on guys, let the man live his life!
Now for the Rules of the Man Crush (via ac)
- Your man crush does not have to play on a team that you cheer for.
- You can not cheer for your man crush when he is facing off against your favorite team NO MATTER WHAT.
- You can not become a fan of a team just because your man crush plays for them.
- There is a limit of having three man crushes per sport.
- You can rid yourself of a man crush for either on- or off-the-field (court/ice/pitch/etc.) conduct.
- A man crush is not a real crush.
So, what Chiefs players do you have man crushes on?

Rumor: Favre Wants to Come Back
After retiring from the game of football this last March Brett Favre feels that he still has something to offer.
- Three days after a conference call with Green Bay Packers team officials on Tuesday in which quarterback Brett Favre emphatically expressed his desire to play in 2008, Favre on Friday formally asked for his contractual release from the Packers in a letter, sources close to Favre and the team said.
Favre is also claiming that the Packers almost forced him out.
- When Favre was reminded by the Packers’ brass that it was in March when the quarterback said publicly and privately that he wasn’t 100 percent committed to football, sources said. Favre acknowledged his state of mind at the time, but added that he never felt he was a 100 percent committed in March of previous years, either. Favre felt he had to make a decision to retire because the Packers were pressing him for an answer, a source said.
So now it is Carl Peterson’s turn to decide if he wants to start talking, if Green Bay grants Favre ’s wish that is. As much as Favre has done for them you would think think could grant him his wish, but it’s still about business and it’s all about that $$.
