Although he is popular and entertaining, Chad Ochocinco's room for big plays simply isn't there for New England. He is used as more of a slot receiver on 3rd down. Wes Welker or one of the Patriots' tight ends are likely targets to mainly get the ball. Don't keep Ochocinco in hopes that he'll have a breakout game because he won't. It's not that Chad is going through a slump, he just isn't used as much as Carson Palmer did.
