It’ll be quite a matchup this upcoming Sunday as the Cincinnati Bengals and the Dallas Cowboys meet for a Week 5 matchup. While the storyline between the two teams’ respective records isn’t all too compelling (Dallas 3-1, Cincinnati 0-4), a lot of eyes will be fixed upon the two poster boy wide receivers of the match: Dallas’ Terrell Owens and Cincinnati’s Chad Javon Johns-I mean-Chad Javon Ochocinco.

Each of these two wide outs is the epitome of excellence that the NFL can offer its fans. Both are amazingly talented athletes who are fully rounded. They have the speed, size, endurance, and moves to be quickly canonized in the NFL Hall of Fame. But if that weren’t enough, these are two players with the most (how should I say it?) “extra flair” in the league.

The showmanship of each player almost precedes their talents anymore and Texas Stadium may not be able to contain both egos. Each team hopes that this doesn’t become problematic on the field and that each receiver can concentrate on the game more than their own image. However it turns out, at least the fans will be entertained.
