What the heck is Josh McDaniels doing? Now Marshall wants out

[AtlantaFalconFan]

rumors have it to the ravens...........



According to profootballtalk.com, "rumors are flying" that Brandon Marshall could ultimately land with the Ravens.
For now, this is merely speculation. There has been no official reported interest from the Ravens side, but the fit makes sense because Baltimore wants a difference-making wideout. We suspect Denver will do all it can to retain Marshall, especially since they will own his rights for two more years if next year goes uncapped.

So...I guess I don't understand how rumors are flying since Baltimore has expressed no interest and Denver is likely to try everything to hold on to him.

Marshall is a known hot-head. What do you think he's going to do the first time Orton hits him in the back of the head with one of his quacking ducks?

This team needs to be blown up and restarted. Dumping a headache like Marshall is the first step in the right direction. Without a solid QB to keep him happy, he's just going to be a liability on and off the field.

How much do you follow the Broncos? Not being a prick, serious question.

He has off the field issues yes.

I have never seen him blow up at a teammate on the field for anything.

Yes he has been a headache, but off the field only, and never to the detriment of his team. He doesn't start fights among teammates, and I have never heard anyone say anything bad about him.

I think it is unfair to make the assumption that:
1.) Orton won't keep him happy and
2.) If unhappy he will become unruly.

He has never shown any signs of being a bad teammate, I don't really know where you are getting this idea from.

And as far as blowing up the team goes, they did a pretty good job of that. Nothing wrong with keeping a few kew pieces.

He may live up to his word and be a perfect soldier from now on. I doubt it, but he might.

But his head coach isn't real bright, and has an attitude problem as well. Orton is not very good. All I'm saying is that it's a recipe for disaster to keep him when he's:

a) proven himself to have self control issues

and

b) wants out of dodge because he doesn't like the direction the team is going in.

Keeping him there is asking for trouble. Trade him while he still has value. Once he turns into Pac-Man Jones he'll be worthless.

This is another assumption.

Even before Shannahan was fired it was speculated he would be a potential holdout.

As has been stated in this thread, this is about money, not about McDaniels.

Believe, I am not trying to defend what he is doing, but you seem to have a bad idea on what kind of a teammate/player he is based on his off field occurrences.

It is clear you don't watch many Bronco games or follow them closely at all and your feelings are based on a few stories you read about Marshall.

Marshall needs to play under his contract this year and discuss more money after his contract is up at the end of it.

Brandon Marshall onfield issues was no problem at all, i believe he was a good teammates but his off field issues is out of control man, he needs to fing grow up. Off topic: Can josh mcdaniels be the next lane kiffin.
