Speaking of Ocho Cinco, I wonder how he will hang with Terrell Owens (or as ESPN's Skip Bayless calls him Team Obliterator) on the same Bengals team. I say if they can keep egos in check they might have a chance to win the AFC. If not, then the Colts will dominate.
As a Cowboys fan I got to see alot of TO... he will be good for the Bengals... especielly for a few things... Rick your first Mistake was watching ESPN.. they are so biased its not even funny.. do yourself a favor.. watch NFL Network.. need a reason why.. look at the Football pick standings from last year.. they speak for themselves.. ESPN sucks...
On Nfl Network they broke down the reason why TO is such a huge addition... 1.. the running game... are you going to leave TO in the slot Uncovered? so you can have 7 in the box to gaurd against the run of Cedric Benson... No.. you cover him in the slot.. this also leaves 1 on 1 coverage on the outside for Chad... and it opens up the Run game HUGE!!!! TO is a good blocker... and that opens up the weak side in Run blocking.. with the ability for Ced to get the edge... he added a sense of potency for a team whom was 18th in the redzone in scoring....
2.. TO is a team player.. yes the Eagles stint did put a hamper on him, but he was good in Dallas.. showed heart for his QB Romo.. he wasnt a distubance what so ever.... in Buffalo they had a revolving carrosel in the coach and qb departmeant.. no chemistry,, even Jerry Rice would have had a bad season... now he has a Pro bowl qb whom was the main factor in getting him there... Carson palmer went to bat for him.. so that is always good...
3. TO... his addition leaves chad open.. it takes the focus away from him, that means single coverage and they cant just key on him.... so it helps him... it should be a good thing for them.. as if you had noticed, he signed a 1 year deal... TO will be on his best behaivor.. as his options are running out.. so the Bengals have done it right.. hes fighting for a ring that Him and Chad both want..
So love them or hate them.. the secondarys in the AFC have a beast to deal with in the Bengals... even the savior of the Steelers is going to have trouble... they are a force this year..
