Chad Johnson Wants Out of Cincy

[Redskin Warrior]

He was just on Mike & Mike in the morning (ESPN) and reported no one came to his defense during this season. He also said Cincy should get rid of the so called cancer in the locker room. He stated that he doesn't get in trouble off the field, he puts up his numbers on the field, just wants to have fun that's it & it personally hurt him when members of the Bengals organization (F.O.) accused his celebrations & interviews to be the reason they are losing. He didn't flat out say I don't want to be in Cincy, he was asked if he wanted to come back he said we'll see what happens & repeated get rid of the cancer or problem maker and make the playoffs. You can read between the lines. Personally they just pissed off there best player.

I think Chad is too much into himself. He wants out because he saw Randy and T.O. end up with contenders and he thinks he deserves it too. I wonder if he would go to a team like the Raiders since he wants out so bad?

Yea but the ball is in his court now he knows they won't keep him if he is unhappy. I don't see anything wrong with Chad and the way he acts. 6 years in the league each year over 1000 each year lead the NFL 3 of the 6 years in yardage. If he puts up numbers I don't care what he does on the field. Bengals should be happy he is scoring TD's hell there are plenty of "big time receiver" doing nothing getting big money "Brandon Lloyd"

I can't imagine anyone wanting to go to the Raiders.

I wish Moss was still there tho. Then maybe I wouldn't be seeing something about the Pats every time I turn on a sports channel.

I'd take him in a heartbeat. I know that he'll cost and I'm not saying that I'd take him no matter the cost or anything like that. I'm just saying that I like him as a player and wouldn't mind him being with the Skins.

[BleedBurgundy]

I don't want him, but i don't want the eagles, giants or cowboys to have him either...

If he walks, I could see him coming to the East - yes, Dallas included.

What a nightmare to have to cover T.O. and Johnson at the same time...

I would welcome that. Two egos in the same locker room? They'd end up pissing someone off for failing to get the ball to them enough.

Unless TO retires, Chad will never be a Cowboy. No room for two egos that size in the same receiving corps. Can you imagine what would happen the first time a reporter asked either of them who the team's #1 WR is?

That said, I could definitely see him on the Eagles. Ick.

TO signed what amounts to 3 1 year deals, w/08 being the 3rd. The boyz could cut him & not affect their cap at all. If he's a problem this playoffs & offseason like he was in philly, they might decide to cut him. He's probably got 1 really good year left before he slows down & has to become more of a possession reciever.

Ummm, he had 81 catches for nearly 1400 yards and 15 TDs in 15 games this year. He's showed no signs of slowing down, he's a physical freak, he knows the team and the offense and hasn't been a problem on or off the field this year.

I think Dallas needs to get younger at WR. Signing another 30+ year old WR with a big contract and a bigger ego would be dumb. Crayton is solid #2, Witten is all-world, and they have two good backs. Why throw another massive ego into the mix? They should look to draft a good WR prosepct to develop until TO hangs it up.

the last thing we need on this team is him slip back into the free agent pool with big names ,huge contracts ,and little to show for it

You know I was thinking the same thing. If there was a chance he could go to Dallas or the Eagles with Westbrook we would have a tough time with both of those teams.

We already have a tough time with both of those teams. Every team in the east really. We're 4-8 against the division the past 2 years. We don't need any of them getting any better.
