It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Hey look, sport, I don't have a horse in this race, so don't get your tighty-whities all in a bunch over me. All I wrote was that I don't believe there's a Chad Johnson on the Patriots' roster. Just to be sure, I looked again and there isn't one. I don't know what else to tell you.Then this thread's probably not for you. BTW, for you and Oldskool.......
Chad Ochocinco Wants His Old Name Back | CraveOnline
Chad Ochocinco - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Super Bowl's history is chock full of absolute nobodies having an impact on the game. We need look no further than David Tyree 4 years ago. Guy had 4 catches in 2007, and would never catch another ball again, but made one of the biggest plays in Super Bowl history.He hasn't done a thing all year but suddenly he's going to be a game changer. I hope I'm wrong but I have a hard time believing that.
He can? Really?
He was open deep several times this year, but Brady overthrew him.
He also dropped an easy deep TD catch early in the season. Not exactly a point in his favor, but he did beat his guy soundly.
Giants will blitz and basically have nothing focused on Ocho, its a matter of if Brady throws to him or waits for the smart timing route by his trusted receivers (giving the Giants the pressure they seem to live off).
They should let him go for a few in the no huddle early, if it fails its still early.
He was open deep several times this year, but Brady overthrew him.

Several times is a severe overstatement, as is Brady overthrowing him.
"Several: being more than two or three, but not many."
You can't Jedi mindtrick me, because I saw it often enough to get frustrated and yell, "They're gonna hook up on one of those eventually!"
He ran an awful lot of plays to only be open those few times.
So we agree that he was open deep.
If you are saying there is some possibility he could get open, OK. If you are saying he is better able to get open than more NFL WRs than he is not better than, sorry, no.
Someone said, "He can still get open." You said, "He can? Really?" And he can. Really.
Just to note:
15 receptions all season long
2 weeks to work on specific plays and packages
1 WR alternative cut loose
0.5 over/under on catches, per Vegas
It won't take much to be a breakout game. Have at it, folks.....
To his credit, Ocho has not tweeted a single statement since Jan. 29th.
His finance has complained via twitter that Ocho has not said two words to her either.
