"Chad Ochocinco wasn't going anywhere as he listened to Bill Belichick run through a range of information on the sideline of Raymond James Stadium last night.
The receiver stood and listened, paying attention to every detail. After 10 seasons in the NFL, Ochocinco said he needs coaching now more than ever. The once-flashy receiver says he feels like he is starting over and he wasn't satisfied with his preseason debut as a member of the Patriots last night.
Ochocinco caught two passes for 14 yards and one touchdown in the Patriots' 31-14 victory over the Buccaneers. Instead of preparing a celebration dance for his first touchdown, he is thinking about terminology and the rhythm of the offense.
When Ochocinco was asked why he didn't celebrate after scoring on an 8-yard completion in the first quarter, he said, "I play for Bill Belichick now.''"
