Chad was a raw talent out of OSU. 
you act like Chad played multiple seasons with Mitchell and Smith.
Btw,Kitna was a.better QB than you remember. He threw for 41 TDs and 31 INTs 
2-seasons as a starter. 
Curtis could do everything Chad Johnson did on the field. 
Curtis played in a era where teams barely threw over 26 times a game. 
Chad dominated no question. 
But.you need to realize he played in a era where physicality was the norm
And Ike even had a rule made cause of him

Kitna didn't have a good year with un until '03; Chad has 2 seasons (as I mentioned above) with dogshit and a 3rd, though he wasn't in peak form (clearly) and he was hurt for a few games.

And people still aren't understanding that Curtis wasn't up to the level of his peers, whereas Chad was ABOVE 99% of his peers. Just acknowledge that.

And again, you have provided no stats to beef up your argument, none.

Less than 26 attempts a game?

Browns, 31.2 attempts in 1952. Their opponents? 29 attempts per game.

Colts, 31.3 attempts in 1961.

Vikings, 29.8 attempts in 1966.

Now, these are 3 teams I picked at random, who had more than 26 attempts per game, decades before Curtis was even in the league.

In Curtis' best year, 1975, the Bengals had 30.9 attempts a game.

How is it that each reason that is brought up, gets blown out of the water? Or how is it, that when talking about the EXACT player, on the EXACT team he played on, your reasoning still gets debunked?

I don't know why people just can't accept that the guy was not at the level of others; there's bias from the word go, on the Curtis 1st people, but come on, you're just as bad as Fred in this case, with his manipulation and distortion of stats.
