From Espn: Miami Dolphins' Chad Johnson said he felt restricted when he played for the New England Patriots

I think that this is just a load of bull. Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson didn’t do well in New England because he just didn’t learn the plays period. The guy was on a team that completely believes in preparing for the game in every aspect (and so does every other team in the NFL) and he choked plain and simple. The guy should’ve risen to the occasion and made strides to make his game work for the team but I think he was too busy tweeting.

Chad Johnson also says that if he was just himself he would’ve done better. But how far will he have really gone with the pats if he was the hot-dogging, showboating, stat-padding athlete like for the Bengals? He would’ve been a distraction and eventually would’ve been let go by the Patriots.

Good luck being “yourself” in Miami where you can get yours on a team that doesn’t even have the same talent as the New England Patriots let alone the rest of the AFC East.
