Bengals Bench Ocho Cinco

Geoff Hobson of Bengals.com reports that the Bengals have deactivated Chad Ocho Cinco for tonights's game against the Steelers due to 85's violation of an unspecified team rule. Chris Henry will replace Johnson in the starting lineup. This, of course, begs the question: What sort of rules violation do you have to commit before you're replaced by Chris Henry?

I think you mean "*raises* the question", not "*begs* the question."

The Bengals are idiots.

They're quickly becoming Raiders 2.0. There were a whole bunch of suspensions in oakland for "team rule violations" right before it became clear that there was massive organizational incompetence.

They couldn't have done this last week when I played against him in FF? Not that he scored big but we tied so even one less point and I would have won.

He might have helped against the Steelers. The Bengals were moving the ball really well early then got discouraged by a couple of drops. The Steelers have looked very underwhelming the last couple of weeks... I think they're gonna lose the 2 seed to the Jets...
