OT: Chad Johnson Wants To Be A Patriot?
 
Some of us have brought this up in the past, but this is the first time Chad ever entertained the idea:

Quote:

The Patriots made an unexpected splash trading for Randy Moss last April. Might Bengals receiver Chad Johnson be next? The thought was tantalizing to Johnson yesterday at Super Bowl XLII. "It would be fun; I would love to play there," he said. "But right now, I'm in Cincinnati. That's where I am." Johnson, one of the NFL's top pass catchers, doesn't seem happy about that. As part of his role as a pitchman for Degree, the personable and outspoken Johnson conducted several interviews at Super Bowl media headquarters yesterday, and it wasn't difficult to detect the frustration he's experiencing with the Bengals. He was passively campaigning for a trade. While Johnson has expressed interest in playing for other clubs, this is believed to be the first time he's openly conveyed his desire to land in New England.

When approached by a Boston reporter, Johnson said: "I'm going to be playing for your team next year." When the reporter laughed, Johnson put his hands together as if he were praying and looked to the heavens.

Dude, it's Chad Johnson. I actually like him, but he never shuts up. Tomorrow he could say he wants to be the starting wideout for an NFL expansion team in Narnia and it wouldn't surprise me.

He is a great talent, but a bit of a nut job. I dont know if even BB can shut this guy up. I saw a clip on NFLN with him asking Bill Parcells to give him a call. It seems he'd take any team over Cinci right now.

Johnson wants to be anything besides a Bengal.

The way BB has spoke about him in the past leaves me to believe that BB knows him enough and if BB were to go after him than that should be enough insurance for yuo that he would be able to fit in here.

So as always in BB we trust....and here is hoping BB can go get him, and keep Randy and Asante.....

What has Chad Johnson actually ever done to make some of you guys dislike him so much? He celebrates to much?

Yea, the guy has a big personality, but he's a very hard worker who spends a ton of extra time watching film and studying to get better. He's always been able to keep himself clean throughout all these years, even while playing for a team that features more "turds" than any other in the league.

If I was him I'd want out too.

If BB and SP say he's Patriots material, he's Patriot material. I doubted them on Corey Dillon, then I doubted them with Randy Moss. I was wrong on both accounts, they were right. If Chad IS a nut job and can't possibly fall in line, they won't even talk to him. If the brain-trust of the Pats deem him of the right mental make-up, I'm done questioning them.

Belichick loves this guy, and he even said he wished he was playing for NE.
