The Bengals issued halftime quotes and this is what Chad Ochocinco had to say about his successful extra point (he kicked because Shayne Graham is being held out with a groin injury):

"'Esteban' Ochocinco is back. The most interesting footballer in the world. Everyone has to remember, I've always said that soccer is my No. 1 sport. I think Ronaldinho would be proud of me right now."

  1. I wish they'd drop kicking as a specific position and make you choose a regular roster-member to do it, like free kicks in soccer.

  1. Ocho's the most entertaining player in the NFL. I wish every team had one of these guys instead of the stiffs we have to listen to day in and day out.

  1. Matt relax, I really don't get people who insult Chad, all he wants to do is just make people laugh, some people are just like that, if he gets people laughing, it makes him feel good. Take a chill pill

  1. I can draft him as a K for fantasy football now, right?

  1. I would say quite a few NFLers could kick an extra point. A lot of them kicked or punted for their high school teams, they are talented athletes. However, for Chad to have maintained that skill, and be able to do it in a game, that's impressive. The XP would have been good from 40+ yards.
