Just when you thought that Ochocinco could not do anything more out of the box or out of the ordinary, the Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver formerly known as Chad Johnson tries out a completely different position by kicking off and kicking a field goal in the preseason victory against the New England Patriots.
The wide receiver position in the NFL is a lot like the flamboyant boxers who just can’t keep their mouth shut. I mean, if you think about it, all wide receivers do is catch a ball and run. Not saying there is no skill in being a wide receiver, but honestly why do these players like the Buffalo Bills Terrell Owens and Cincinnati Bengals Ochocinco make such a big fuss about themselves. They aren’t exactly the faces of the franchise, matter of fact; wide receivers will never overshadow the quarterback position. Make a bet on the Bengals when you bet on sports at PickYourButt.com
There is no doubting Ochocinco’s talent, he is without doubt one of the top five wide receivers in the NFL , but the guy definitely has a flare for the unusual.
The Cincinnati Bengals are a troubled NFL franchise that are desperately trying to get their offense back to dominant status like it was a few seasons ago lead by Palmer and Ochocinco. Carson Palmer is finally healthy and the team is relatively intact and the defense seems to be much improved for seasons past.
This season should be drastically different with upgrades on both sides of the football. I don’t expect there to be a huge change in sports betting predictions with the Bengals, I think they will be a better team and should effect online betting with some surprising victories, but I really don’t think the Bengals will be all the buzz in sports betting forums this season like say the New England Patriots.
