Mike Brown continues to destroy his own team. :rolleyes:

[BigB96]

I heard that. Any wind of what we got for him? I think his prime has passed. That's just my 2 cents

[mustangboy]

I agree Mike Brown is an idiot but getting rid of Chad is not destroying the team, keeping him for so long is one of many many factors that destroyed the team. He should have been traded two years ago when he wanted out

[BigB96]

Why keep a guy here that does not want to be here? We got PLENTY of great receivers.
I just hope they get someone that will help us out. Like a solid pass rusher

[cstreu1026]

I hope he doesn't let the door hit him in the ass. I'm not sorry to see him go at all.

[Black92LX]

Finally the circus has left town.

A nice fresh start hopefully Dalton and Greene will be a nice match and we have some good years ahead of us.

[93hulk]

Traded for a draft pick. What a slap in the face to Ocho. Im pissed! FVCK Mike Brown!

[BigB96]

Chad has not been giving 100 percent for a while. Carson, well I dunno what that guys deal is. I strongly feel we are
In a better position to win than last season

[2Fast4You]

Internal chaos has destroyed this team for many years, not sure what all will happen from here.

[BigB96]

As simple as it can be said, getting rid of those two will not hurt us.

[Gstang117]

I just hope that they give chad a different number for his jersey lol

[BigB96]

I just hope that they give chad a different number for his jersey lol

That would be sweet lol

[Brandon Alsept]

As much as it pains me to say I agree with everything Mike Brown is doing in the last few days . I think chad is beyond overrated, and Carson is a joke. I look forward to the Dalton era myself. They are making good moves and I am hoping for a good season.

[sean]

cool I will be watching the pats play. Since I cant stand the bengirls any reason to watch something else is welcome.

[chris91]

Anyone want to buy a Reebok Chad Johnson pro style jersey? lol I may wipe my ass with it and send it to NE....

[smytty]

Im sure Chads happy... Just like Cory now Chad has a chance of getting a ring...
Cant blame the guy for wanting out.. Funny though when they did have decent seasons everyone thought Carson and Chad was the best thing since gov't cheese...

[furiouslyfaster]

I just hope the bengals do decent at least this year I love watching them play but seasons like last year make it unbearable. Guess I got to get new jersey's lol It may of been chads time to go but it will be weird watching and him not playing because as long as i can remember watching he has been a bengal. It will just be a little weird i guess. Kinda like seeing your ex. lol jk

[smytty]

^ yeah i agree.. Im def not a fan but id like to see Cincy have a decent football team before i die... Too bad you cant trade owners and draft a new front office...

[WCKDGT]

and they let jonathan joseph go to the texans

[CNTLOSE]

Damn...now both my Bungals jerseys are obsolete. It also looks like we picked up Bruce Gradkowski from Oakland....WTF. The idea of getting a veteran QB is to get a good one out of his prime, not one that never had a prime.

[sean]

lol. this is going to be a great season. Glad I hate the bengirls.

[Markcore]

We'll we're friends on facebook, I'll ask him about it! :lol:

[5.0calypso93lx]

I can't see how anyone could see this as a negative.

[05yellowgt]

I'm sad to see him go. I think Chad will be a top 5 receiver this year with the Pats. I also can't believe that they let Joseph go as well. He's one of the top DB's in the league IMO.

[RIXXX93GT]

Glad to see Ocho go, he still has some skills but too many dropped passes and he seems tentative to go across the middle anymore. His antics would have been fine if he was a true pro bowl receiver. As far as Carson....I think his days are over and its sad, he has never been the same after the injury and with that group of clowns you need a much stronger personality and leadership. I dont have a clue why they dont try and trade Carson to get some value out of him. In my opinion even though Im a lifelong Bengals fan they have dropped to the bottom of the NFL, this used to be the Lions domain but the Lions look far better than the Bengals from week to week as of last year.

[setty2706]

Persoanlly iam not upset that chad is gone. but i hate that they let joseph go. I agree chad will now be one of the top 5 now that he is in NE. Chad is a great WR but his ability and talents were overshadowed by his on field behavior and not having a good offense around him. Palmer was never the same after the kee injury (hate it) but its time to move past the calmer/johnson days... Can we plz add mike brown to the goodbye list? :)

[03z06vette]

I'm sad to see him go. I think Chad will be a top 5 receiver this year with the Pats. I also can't believe that they let Joseph go as well. He's one of the top DB's in the league IMO.

Chad will do well cause Brady is a fing stud!!

[exrider416]

Bengals Records
- Most receiving yards in a season (1,440)
- Most receiving yards all-time
- Most receptions
- Most touchdown receptions
- Most receiving yards in a game (260)
- Most seasons with over 1,000 receiving yards (7)
- Most touchdown receptions in a game (3, tied with several other players)
- Led AFC in receiving for 4 straight years

Hard to say Chad (Ocho) was overrated. I'm sure his number will be great this year too with Brady.

[BigB96]

I don't think he is over rated, he just didn't want to be here anymore.
So he didn't give 100 percent. He dropped ALOT of passes last season,
The way Palmer was throwing, we needed our wr's to catch anything that was near them.
Hate to see joesph go. He was solid. Odom is the latest to go. No hurt there. Lol

[pegasus]

It all comes down to the qb and receivers mixing well and wanting to work together for the good of the team this wasn't happening with them

[beefcake]

I won't be surprised if he does very well with the Pats this year.
