    Chad really does deserve a gold jacket, it’s a team sport and he lived for this down under team in Cincinnati,
    Best celebrations in the league ever hands down, and a prolific route runner, probably ONLY topped by rices feet, and he has the yardage.
    The guy made football in Cincinnati and in general fun

      I disagree- I think if he had one more pro bowl and one more all-pro, he’d be in. Chad Johnson was awesome to watch and def one of the best pure route runners ever. If he had his head on straight the entirety of his career, he’d have way more receiving yards (receivers with route running skills always have the best longevity). But he essentially stopped being a productive receiver after 32. Also didn’t help that he didn’t play well with Tom Brady throwing him the ball and his disaster with the Dolphins.
      Just my honest opinion.

      Y’all give Jerry too much credit. He was amazing. In his time when DBs were allowed to be starters running 4.6 40s. Jerry didn’t have the ray Lewis led defenses to get in the way. Chad didn’t have 2 HoF QBs back to back throwing him the ball in HIS prime. Chad didn’t have an All Pro defense to back them up when they had the lead. Shit even old rice had help when he made it to his last superbowl with the raiders. Again Rice IS the GOAT. He even whooped on prime a bit. But Chad def had some things Jerry didn’t. Speed aside. His feet were indeed sweeter. Jerry (superb route runner) also benefited being a bigger body and target than Chad, at a time the avg corner was like 5’9. Jerry was 6’2😂

    Chad sure made it fun to be a young Bengals fan back when I was a little kid getting into football in 2004-05. Hope he gets his place in Canton. I will never forget when he gave me a ball in the tunnel in Buffalo back in 07, I was there with my dad in the only Bengals jersey in a sea of Bills fans, was yelling to him and he 'finger rolled' it right to me walking into the locker room after warmups. Forever a fan of #85.

    Chad competed against the hardest era of his position and dbs and Lbs ..look up top 20 record holders in 3 major categories at receiving, only 3 or 4 HOF retired before he got drafted. All top 20 dbs for pass defended record and top 20 record holder for tackles played during his era. Not to mention this was before they watered down defense changed some rules to favor the offense side. Nowadays Cooper Kupp and Tyreek hill running down the field thinking they get 200yds, Chad Johnson had to figure out how not to get killed on the field.

Rather than try to kiss his ass on the voicechat I just treated him like one of my buddies and he really appreciated that I do think. I didn't tell anyone we were playing against who he was, either (MW2 at the time did not allow for private party chats during that so everyone was chatting with everyone voice-wise).
