They are good friends off the field and I believe that each of the guys wont explode with temper tantrums on the sidelines like they have in the past.

TO is poison.Comment -
This is going to be very fun to watchComment -
totally disagree,both of themwill errupt the minute the team starts losing and there ego will surely get in there way.think owens is just a waste of a team time and should use that money on a guy who will give it all.cause to is known to give up on routes and give up during a game.so he is just another cancer on a team that is desperate.Originally posted by coloradobuffComment -
I agree, I think they will play along side each other just fine...and that TO will actually play a whole lot better than last yearOriginally posted by coloradobuffComment -
Hate to say it, but this could work out in Cincy's favor. Look for this team to cover some lines...Comment -

looks like a wreck waiting to happen to meComment -
You're missing the obvious, T.O. is a shell of what he used to be on the field. Who cares about the locker room. Look at the leaked stories from people within the Dallas Cowboys organization who basically said T.O. thinks he's still T.O. from about five years ago, but he can pretty much be ridden out of plays with physical play now. Ochocinco also isn't the same player productivity wise he used to be. This is great for a Madden video game. In real life, I bet it sucks.Comment -
who knows what will happen.Comment -
Well...it MIGHT work...if they are winning and they throw the ball more than they did last year.
It might NOT work...if they are losing or if either of them isn't getting the ball as much as they think they should.

Fantastic pickup for the Bengals.Comment -
should be but u just never know for sureComment -
Train wreck waiting to happen. CheersComment -
no big deal both guys are just hypeComment -
T O can only help Ocho cause he'll draw the coverage from guys like Revis who made 85 look sillyComment -
i see problems if t.o. doesn't get thrown to enough. especially when he has incentives in contract based off of stats. what happens when bryant gets healthy and some of the young guys like gresham and shipley become underneath route monsters? ocho and owens will go insane and fruity marv can't handle that madness.Comment -
This was a stupid move, but I wouldnt expect anything less from Marvin Lewis and the Bengals. Total act of despiration.All sounds good now and yes T.O. and Cinco are butt buddies, but wait until week 4 when one has 9 catches/126yds and the other has 2 catches/14yds, then you'll see how good of a move this was.

The bengals better hope they can win.Comment -
Good observations. I agree that it's a bit of an act of desperation, but this is Cincy after all. It's all they've got.Originally posted by ehp6737This was a stupid move, but I wouldnt expect anything less from Marvin Lewis and the Bengals.

I will be interested to see what kind of competitive Rivalry may develop. It might help to push each other, but it also might cause turmoil. Thing is, Palmer is savvy enough as a veteran and as a person to manage these huge egos, he's been doing it his whole career in the NFL. Yes, Palmer gave the nod to bring in TO, he can manage this.Comment -
i don't know if it's worse having to watch these guys on the bengals or on vh1
Comment -
yes it is a real desperation act
(current bengals receivers/te) # of catches last year
Chad Johnson - 72
Terrell Owens - 52
Andre Caldwell - 51
Antonio Bryant - 39
Daniel Coats - 16 (dropped 2 tds in the endzone last year)
Quan Cosby - 4
Chase coffman - 0
Jermain Gresham - 0
reggie kelly - 0
Dezmone Briscoe - 0
Jordan Shipley - 0
Maurice Purify - 0
Jerome Simpson - 0
Matt Jones - 0
Freddie Brown - 0
So they just added a veteran who is number 2 in receptions last year compared to the rest of the team(and he got those numbers on the BILLS). Id would file that under intelligent not desperate. Bryant is not healthy and caldwell is way to small too play on the outside. They needed another outside WR before training camp started, they got it.(camp starts today, they will be on the field tomorrow)Comment -
Should be am interesting season for the bengalsComment -
This is like loading a pickup truck in preparation for doing a little offroading. Half the load is dynamite and half is nitroglycerine. It's only a matter of time before something happens, and when it does, the results will be very, very bad.Comment -
Who is the 3rd WR? TO and Ocho are clowns.Comment -
benagls -300 to win superbowl FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Comment -
I am a Bengals fan (I know, I know), and I think T.O. will make a solid contribution to the team... we signed him because Antonio Bryant's recovery process from a knee injury is progressing a lot slower than expected... also, T.O. will at least be able to serve as a decoy to open up the field for other targets like Ocho and Gresham and ANDRE CALDWELL (watch out for him). Plus, T.O. always has a chance to make a big play.Comment -
Either way, it is going to be a very entertaining season, in Cincinnatti!Comment -
two big ego's on one team cant be goodComment -
there shows on VH1 are awfulComment -
