Chad is hands down the best WR the Bengals have ever had. He had a three year stretch ('04-'06) where he was arguably the best WR in football.
It wore a bit thin at the end, but he was also quite entertaining and made the Bengals both fun and relevant in national discussion.
Also keep in mind he did all of this playing against perennially great Steelers/Ravens defenses loaded with Hall of Famers for 4 games out of every 16, having to worry about getting his head blown up every time he went across the middle.
Chad going against the softer AFCN defenses of late, with the extra protections that QBs and WRs have now... he would have put up monstrous numbers.
