The Titans play the Bengals this weekend at Paul Brown Stadium in Cincy and that means the weekly conference call and the guy usually interviewed for the Bengals is Chad Johnson. Here are the highlights from his conference call with Jim Wtatt of the Tennessean:
On Titans linebacker Keith Bulluck, who called "Oucho Cinco" earlier in the week: "Tell Keith I'll hit him in the mouth. We can take it off the field.'' (Johnson explained the two are great friends).
On his touchdown celebrations: "It's too early to do any of that stuff right now. Once we get clicking as an offense and winning some games, that's when I'll emerge.''
On pressure of playing in NFL: "There is no pressure in this. I love this. This is one of the reasons why I do so much talking.... It is not pressure. Pressure would be if (President) Bush called all of us and told us we had to go to Iraq. Now that's pressure.''
On cornerback Cortland Finnegan: "He's very good. He doesn't get the (expletive) credit he deserves because he is not a high-profile flashy type guy. ... He is kind of your Michael Jordan.''
Johnson said Finnegan needs to run his mouth more to take it to the next level.

The Bengals offense had a lousy game on Sunday but the same thing happened last year when the Bengals and Titans played. Then when the two teams played, the Bengals gave the Titans the worst beatdown of the season. One more thing in common from last year, Albert Haynesworth missed the game with hamstring injury and this year he suffered a concussion on Sunday and hasn't practiced any this week because of it. He won't miss the game because he's playing on a 1 year tender and if he wants the big money contract he has to prove that he can play in 16 games, something he has never done since he has become a starter. He played in all 16 as a rookie but he wasn't starting until the 2nd half of the season.

LMAO!
chad can suck it, he sucks, nodoby cares about OCHOSTINKO

i hope ur titans wipe the field up with em
I do to but, it was a similar situation last year, and the Bengals beat them like a drum. Haynesworth isn't going to be 100%, he might not even play depending on the condition of his concussion.
THINK positive
OCHOMORON goes down
