Palmer4HOF Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 [quote]Pats WR Moss out of Pro Bowl February 4, 2008 NEW YORK (TICKER) -- Following the lead of his quarterback, New England Patriots wide receiver Randy Moss pulled out of the Pro Bowl on Monday. Earlier Monday, it was announced Patriots record-setting quarterback Tom Brady would not play in this weekend's game in Honolulu. It was disclosed Moss suffered some type of injury in Super Bowl XLII on Sunday when the Patriots' bid for perfection ended with a stunning 17-14 loss to the New York Giants. ADVERTISEMENT Moss, who set a single-season record with 23 touchdown catches, had a 6-yard TD reception with 2:42 remaining to give the Pats a 14-10 lead. Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Chad Johnson will replace Moss in Sunday's game. The talkative Johnson had 93 receptions for 1,440 yards and eight touchdowns this season.[/quote] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 It is my belief that Chad will not be traded, and that the best thing that can happen is for Chad and the Bengals to "smoth things over". As such, I think I will be happy for Chad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want him traded, but wouldn't be opposed to it if the offensive philosophy is appropriately changed to manage the trade. If TO can get his shit together, Chad surely can.

LudwigVan Kubrick Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 I the Bengals really going to let yet another of their stars walk because they don't know how to provide a positive winning environment?

knomage Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Fans that complain about sports figures immaturity while allowing themselves to be transformed into emotional spoon bangers by endless repetitions of the same stories never seem to develop a distaste for the repetitive nature of the media led circle jerk Is this our version of soaps? do we need this drama to feel alive? Why not let those that have the abilities to play the game we love to watch Do so ..... let those that are successful in coaching them, do so ,as well Hail the winners and revile the losers .. i can enjoy all of that But calm down with the baby shit ..

You don't try to publicly embarass him and make the organization look bad in the process. Until traded, Chad is still very much a part of this team.

Vol_Bengal Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 I guess I get to the point where I just to the stuff surrounding Chad. Supposedly, Marvin "didn't have his back" earlier in the year and stopped talking to him, or whatever. The same Marvin that had a different set of rules for Chad than he had for the other players... I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and go on the premise that he's just making waves to be in the spotlight. This is what he wanted and essentially the week of the biggest games of the year that he wasn't even in, and the day after the biggest game of the year that he wasn't in he was still at least a top 3 to 5 story topic. Just the way he wants it. Until he just flat out publicly requests a trade or does something shitty like run out on the field of the Pro Bowl wearing another team's helmet then I'll just ignore it and expect to see his ass in the spring OTA's... Unless of course he puts up or shuts up and offers to pay back the remaining portion of his signing bonus so we don't see the cap hit, which tells us he's serious about a trade. If he sits next year, fine. Let him sit. But don't take one in the ass in a trade just becaue he wants out. I'm glad he's still going to the Pro Bowl - if he seriously wants a trade it only adds value to the trade. Otherwise, we've still got a Pro Bowl receiver at a contract that was signed, what, 2-3 years ago... He's still one of our players and, again, until he just flat out says he wants out or puts up the signing bonus I'll take all of the other nonsense with a grain of salt. We're doing exactly what Chad wants us to do. The endgame to this whole deal is Marvin will either call him or they'll meet face to face and Marvin will flat out tell Chad how it is and they'll either kiss and make up or they won't at which time Chad will have a decision to make. Based on that decision, then Marvin will have one to make as well. That is all the perspective I have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bengal Chris Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Maybe this will show hes still a good player. I mean he doesn't go to the pro bowl and he feels he is worthless. Now he gets to go, maybe this will change his mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, I heard Jimmie Johnson talking a few weeks back about NFL players in general and he said honestly it is like dealing with a bunch of kids. You have to know when to stroke their ego, etc. to get them to play for you, etc. And those coaches that can manage the childish mentality the best win the most.
