When talking about the Bengals, one can’t forget the oh-so blunt receiver, Chad Ochocinco. In order to make this game a bit more interesting, Ochocinco and Jets cornerback Darrell Revis have shared a few heated words through twitter and the media.
The Bengals receiver wants to make it known that he knows he can’t be covered by the New York Pro Bowler. "Darrelle Revis couldn't cover me in a brown paper bag on a corner of a Manhattan street inside a phone booth," Ochocinco said. "It's impossible."
In return, Revis kept his composure and responded, "I like him, like the way he plays and all that. Hope he doesn't play this week, but anytime we play him, he's always got comments. I think it's good, good for the game."
Ochocinco also made it a point to stress how important it is to watch this upcoming Sunday game. "Look here: Me and Revis is better than Pacquiao-Mayweather, period, case closed," Ochocinco said. "I don't care what anybody is doing Sunday night. If you don't tune into the game Sunday, you have no life. You have no life. You (have) never seen a matchup like this ever before."
The truth is it will be an interesting matchup as it will be all on the line for the new York Jets. After a great start to the season, followed by a seriously rough group of losses, it all comes down to one game. If the Jets win this game they will earn their spot in the postseason, if not it all will come to an end.
