yeah Im pissed at Chris for his stupid behavior but aside from being in a car WTF did he do.. puke??? he could say it was bad chicken or something...yeah i know he probably was celebrating ..
If Odell would have kept his cool and not implicated Chris or said he had teammates in the car this might not have happened ...

[quote][size=5][b]Henry inactive [/b][/size]

October 1, 2006

Despite coming off the two best games of his career, Bengals wide receiver Chris Henry found himself on the sidelines for Sunday’s game here at Paul Brown Stadium against the Patriots.

Head coach Marvin Lewis chose to deactivate Henry six days after he was reportedly in a car driven by Odell Thurman when the middle linebacker was arrested for driving while impaired.

Henry, who already faces a possible suspension from NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, was found with Thurman and fellow receiver Reggie McNeal hours after catching two touchdown passes in pissburgh last Sunday. In the game before that, Henry had the first 100-yard game of his career with 113 in the 34-17 win here over Cleveland.

The Bengals could be seeing what life is going to be like without Henry when Goodell’s ruling comes down. There had been some gray area where Henry stood with the NFL after pleading guilty to a gun charge in Florida on top of his plea to marijuana possession in Kentucky. While two admissions would net a suspension, according to the league’s personal conduct policy, the two charges can also fall into two different categories with one governing substance and alcohol abuse and the other personal conduct.

But when Goodell visited Cincinnati last week, NFL vice president Joe Browne said that Goodell had the final say, and the new commissioner indicated that he would be tough with violators in a statement that didn’t bode well for Henry.

Goodell said the case had yet to reach his desk. If Goodell acts, Henry could be looking at a suspension of one or two games, and maybe more if his DUI case in Clermont County is resolved later this month. That’s the question now. Will Goodell act before the Bengals’ next game - Oct. 15 in Tampa - or wait until the Clermont case is resolved? And if he acts, will he follow through on a suspension?

Lewis’ decision was rendered easier by the presence of wide receiver Antonio Chatman, active for the first time this season Sunday after being hobbled by a groin problem since the first weekend of training camp.[/quote]

Hopefully Chatman has some good punt returns and makes the loss of Henry more bearable.

[quote name='LeakyBengal' post='355392' date='Oct 1 2006, 01:55 PM']Chatman is playing today right?[/quote]



Yep.

I hate how Hobson updates shit.

He throws it in the middle, and you just about have to re-read everything to see it !


[quote]Also inactive is starting strong-side linebacker Rashad Jeanty (ankle), giving Caleb Miller the start.


Lewis also sat down McNeal for the second straight week since coming up from the practice squad.[/quote]

Damn you Hobson and your shitty way of updating articles !!! :rant:


[quote]Chad Johnson, T.J. Houshmandzadeh and Kelley Washington would get the bulk of the snaps for a receiving corps that had [b]just four active for the second straight week. [/b]

Besides Henry, McNeal and Jeanty, also inactive for the Bengals were four injured players in strong safety Dexter Jackson, center Rich Braham, wide receiver Tab Perry, and linebacker A.J. Nicholson.

The Pats also took some hits on their inactive list with starting safety Eugene Wilson and cornerback Ellis Hobbs scratched from a secondary already decimated. Plus, starting right tackle Ryan O’Callaghan was scratched, and [b]Patriots coach Bill Belichick chose not to announce the replacements until game time. [/b][/quote]

On the way home from work I heard Lapham saying that he doesn't think that Chatman will be returning any punts, as he hasn't really done it for the bengals much at all. I thought "How hard could it be to do it for another team? He did it for Green Bay!"
And FWIW, I am glad Marvin put his foot down and benched Henry. One thing that Chris Henry DOES know is football, and maybe if Marvin shows just how easily it (along with his pay) can be taken away from him, then MAYBE he will get it through his thick alien head that he has to be more careful with whom he associates with and what he does in his spare time. We'll be fine with everyone else we have anyway, plus you simply can't ignore the fact that Carson is the one distributing the ball, he makes all the receivers look better.
