Chad Johnson has caused a big stir in the front office of the Cincinatti Bengals this season. Marvin Lewis is not happy with Chad's publicity and it is making for bad chemistry that will show in the upcoming season. Recently, there have been rumors circulating about Chad moving somewhere else but there has been no activity.

Much like the start of last years NBA's season, Kobe was looking to to do the same thing. There were always rumors circulating that he wanted to be traded but everything seemed to calm down and he gave the lakers one more chance to make him a believer. It ended up paying off and now they are in the playoffs as the number 1 seed.

Do you see the same for the Bengals or will they have another dismal season as the NFL''s bottom feeders?

Marvin Lewis is saying things about Ocho Cinco that relate to Kobe significantly. He stated that "Hopefully, he'll do what Kobe Bryant did this year and come back and be very competitive and have an accomplished season." I could see that happening as long as Chad can calm himself down and stay under the radar for awhile until his play can speak for him.

It will be interesting to see how the Bengals go into the next season, they have major issues to clear up not only on defense but on offense as well. If Chad were to be unhappy and got traded or let loose, who would pick up his spot at #1?

Hopefully they don't resort to what the Chicago Bears are doing by not paying their all star performers what they want. The last thing Cincinatti needs is another dismal season beacuse if they do it will be a very busy offseason in 2009 with releases and bad chemistry.
