Chad not happy about being called "Mopey" by Marvin Lewis.

by Yarin on Jan 5, 2011 2:02 PM EST

Chad Ochocinco on the radio show - 2live stew this morning. Seems things are gonna get interesting between Marvin Lewis and Chad Ochocinco this off season. How much of an impact do you think this will have with team chemistry if Chad is brought back next season? Do you think Chad Ochocinco is right to feel this way or do you agree with Marvin Lewis?

Given Chad's history of whining

I’m gonna agree with marvin

I'd have to agree with Marv on this one too

Have you read some of Chad’s Facebook posts? He whines about petty shit that isn’t even related to football. Chad was always one of my favorites since he came into the league, but I think it’s time for Chad and the Bengals to move on and go their separate ways.

2011 and beyond. Only one thing came true on the last wishlist.
This year's wishlist
1. Bengals win Super Bowl (Something I hope for every year)
2. Reds win the World Series(or at least a playoff game)
3. Ohio State Wins a Big 10 title
4. Cavaliers actually finish with a winning record
5. Wings win the Cup

Yup

Chad’s right, that Marvin took a cheap shot at him (and before i make my next comment I’d like to say that Chad was one of my all time favorite FB players) but even though this was a cheap shot, the question i’d like to ask Chad is “How does it feel buddy?”

cheap shots?

Chad has been taking cheap shots at other players and this organization for years. Now, has he directly and blatantly criticized people? Not sure. But he has been indirectly doing it constantly. Every time he comes over with his hands out, complaining to Palmer, he is basically telling everyone (including the cameras zoomed in on him) that it’s Palmer’s fault. Every time, he mopes on the sideline or vents on his reality show, he is showing public disgruntlement towards his coaches (especially Marvin). When he gets into a lockerroom fight with Marvin during halftime of their first playoff game, he is taking a cheap shot.

Marvin, Palmer, and this organization have been taking crap from Chad for years. Chad’s just fortunate they have a lot more class than he does, which is why he’s suddenly shocked at a trivial comment Marvin makes now.

bah

Chad spent years being vilified as a TO clone when everything he said was in good fun and he had never spoken a word against his team or teammates. Lately he’s being shit on more than ever, especially by Bengals fans, and it’s starting to get ugly. Meanwhile Marvin has always made it clear that anyone too injured to play this week is worth less than a fart in a high wind to the team, yet he’s the good guy weathering the storm of abuse?

I'm guessing you were responding to me?

I seem to remember Chad deliberately publicly stating he didn’t want to play for the Bengals. I recall constant ambiguous comments which imply criticisms of coaches and teamates. I remember him screaming at Palmer and other coaches on the sidelines and even at times, on the field. I remember him constantly complaining about not getting thrown to enough or not having plays designed for him. I remember seeing Chad tell teamates to get out of his way so he could do a celebration dance in front of the cameras. And of course, Chad shares the same jackass agent as TO, in addition to lobbying for him and co-hosting reality shows with. So, I find little credence in claiming they’re not very much a like.

And as for Marvin and his degrading of injured players, I don’t find too much fault with that. He probably gets tired of the press asking him the same questions repeatedly about the extent of injuries which he typically tries to be discreet about.

Never spoken a word against his team?

So when he was constantly bitching to be traded 2 (I think 2) years ago, that doesn’t count.

He spent years dealing with that bullshit, without having said a bad word about his team… that was for his first 4 or 5 years. I think at that point it became kindof a “if I’m going to be blamed for this, why should I stop myself from doing it?” thing.

Please trade Chade for a 4th round pick

Chad dont let the door hit you in the A$$

On your way out and you find that no one else will put up with your crap.

Chad isnt that good anymore either

by Bengal Brian on Jan 6, 2011 12:46 PM EST reply actions

C-ya later, thanks for the memories........

Chad was a dominating player for a good 3-4 year span and everyone put up with his antics because he produced so much. Now what do we have? Someone who puts up mediocre stats and still acts like a diva……..Jerome Simpson, welcome! CJ….thanks for the effort, we had some good times (although am beginning to forget because been awhile now). He and B. Marshall can have fun in Miami or something being dysfunctional………adios!

One last parting shot on the Ocho......

No one runs worse routes, improvises whenever they please in the middle of the game, and whines more about not getting the ball (see above reasons for this). Carson is already aging less not having TO and Chad around, he looks like a rookie again. Simpson, Caldwell, and Shipley run correct routes, catch the ball, and line up to get ready to do it again. Chad sees the writing on the wall…………

by The Van Buren Boys on Jan 6, 2011 1:37 PM EST reply actions

Agreed

with VBB AGAIN.

Another note to. Does anyone else notice that when Simpson scores a TD the whole team goes down and ralley’s with him in the endzone including Carson. When Chad or TO scores they do their silly stupid celebrations and not many other teammates celebrate with thim. I am a huge believer in team chemistry and celebrating with teammates helps build it.

Right there with you BB, they look like they are having fun. When TOCHO are out there it looks like Palmer is just stressing about who to throw the ball to first. The new guys listen to the coaches and Palmer (the coach on the field for us), then act like they’ve been to the end zone and/or quarterback before (Barry Sanders style, hand the ball back and line up). Most fans cringe when they hear “youth movement,” not Bengal fans…….we should be flat out embracing it because the future does look bright.

by The Van Buren Boys on Jan 6, 2011 5:31 PM EST reply actions

Yes

The TOCHO show needed a NC 17 rating for a Horror flick that seemed like it would never end. Just watching the younger guys was fun and refreshing. It was so nice to see some WR YAC as well and not flop to the ground or look for the sindline right away.
