Ocho Cinco in Midnight Green?

[Delhommey]

Quick little nugget before we call it a night here at MTC.

ESPN's Michael Smith said on NFL Live tonight that he's hearing the Eagles have interest in Bengals wide receiver Chad Johnson.

Rather than paraphrase what Smith is reporting, here's exactly what he said so you can decide for yourself whether this is just a rumor or something more.

"I am hearing there is interest in Chad Johnson," Smith said. "Now there's been some back and forth as to whether or not he is officially on the market. I think everybody in Cincinnati has signed off on moving Chad Johnson except for owner Mike Brown. The Eagles could be in the picture. They have two first-round picks. They need a receiver."

Their receivers were already 6th in the NFL in YAC last year. Not too shabby. They had made an offer for Moss after 2007 IIRC. Wouldn't be surprised if they went for the Ocho.

Because Philly really needs another over-rated, loud-mouthed, cocky WR? That worked out well for them last time...

btw, I think Carson Palmer was who made Chad Johnson good.

Don't know how anyone could call Chad "over-rated"

The Eagles may just straighten hiss azz out!

I think he is.

ummm, made it to the NFCC with the ones they had....no need for a F'ed up locker room.

[Delhommey]

Chad's no more a locker room problem than Smitty.

Yeah, I said it.

[Jangler]

At least 85 is likable....sometimes.

89 is likable all the time, unless your Ken Lucas.

[JoCoLoco]

89 is likeable to Panther fans, and fans of every other team that doesn't play us in the current or upcoming season.

Everyone else hates him.

Yeah, I said it.

Oh no you didn :eek:

Chad in Philly is scary to think about. As much passing as they do, he's gonna get his numbers and he gives them just another weapon for defenses to worry about. Cincy is such a losing situation. Ocho Cinco could use the change of scenery.

Phily will NOT make the Super Bowl.

that is all
