Cincinnati Bengals Wide receiver Chad Ochocino has publicly guaranteed his team will make the playoffs in 2009.

“It’s going to be a great year; we’re going to the playoffs,” Ochocinco said. “We’re going … We’re making progress. I mean, I see it, and I can come out on a limb and say what we’re going to do.”

After years of being a horrible teammate, apparently Chad is refocused and prepared to do whatever the team needs him to do.

“I got to go back to having fun, and I’m going to have fun this year,” Ochocinco said. “I’m telling you that ahead of time.”

Sorry Chad, but the Lions have a better chance at making the playoffs than you guys.
