Even more on Chad Johnson wanting out of Cincy
"Ocho Cinco" watch 2008 has begun. Today, Chad Johnson, endorsing his charity work with Degree, has made the rounds down in Arizona, going on various radio and TV shows. And in many of those interviews, Johnson has seemed frustrated and clearly is positioning himself to get out of Cincinnati. Will it work? That's anyone's guess.
Now, Larry McAlister, a Cincinnato radio host, has made an entry on his blog about how today could be the beginning of the end of Chad's era in Cincinnati. Here's some of what he wrote:
If it wasn't obvious before, it is now......Chad Johnson has turned the page and his back on his Bengals career. This isn't cute....it isn't fun...and it's not an act. This is calculated and orchestrated. He and agent Drew Rosenhaus have put the wheels in motion to get out of town. They believe he's best served leaving Cincinnati. They view the field turf as greener any place else.
This is about money, losing, marketing and trust. Chad continues to believe he is being sabotaged by, not the fans or media...but the organization. This might be fixable if it was the media and fans. Anyone think this organization is good at making guys feel loved?
Come to Miami!! We'll make you feel loved!! I promise!!
Anyway, for the perspective of Bengals fans, head on over to Cincy Jungle, SBN's Bengals blog. In particular, check out Josh's latest article by clicking here.
And now I'll ask you all. Will Johnson be a Bengal in 2008 if you had to guess? And if no, do you realistically think he can end up in Miami?

here's what I want to know....
All this with Carson Palmer as his QB (and Kitna for his first 2 seasons).
If you watched the bengals last year, you know that CJ did lots and lots of complaining.
So for arguments sake, what would you expect him to be like when he's catching passes from....John Beck, who doesn't even have 70 completions in his entire career? what happens when every team double and triple covers CJ and he's on pace for a 60 catch, 900 yard season?

Chad
The other thing is, he's already said he wants to play for a contender. As much as I hope we can get there sooner than later, I'm not sure it will fit Chad's timeline.

Joking or not
Lets do some Math
Parcells + Ocho + way under salary cap + draft picks - Cam Cameron - Randy Mueller = Playoffs in 2-3 years.
I see a outside shot. Chad wants to come home, and he knows Parcells can turn us around quick and he can help.
