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

Quote:

NFL insider Adam Schefter reported on 850 KOA in Denver that Brandon Marshall asked Broncos owner Pat Bowlen for a trade during their meeting Friday. Per Schefter, Bowlen asked Marshall to take some time to reconsider his stance. Marshall is not expected to back down, however, which means the Broncos are right back where they were with Jay Cutler. Though it's possible that a new contract could assuage Marshall, it's more likely that the receiver will continue to push for a trade. Perhaps the Bears will be interested.

Is he actively trying to run off all the talent there is on the team? I mean yeah Marshall has his well documented problems he is wrestling with, but he is still really really really talented.

Awesome.

This is why 30-something head coaches rarely work in the NFL.

I notice everyone in Bellichick's coaching tree has been a miserable failure. McDaniels is going down that path big time.

Money talks, Bowlen probably has the checkbook and pen ready to go.

As for the Bears talk, what exactly can they trade? Future picks?

Marshall isn't exactly a model citizen either.

Addition by subtraction.

This is moreso about money than it is about McDaniels, IMO.

My thoughts exactly, although with people's perceived perception(and also the thread title), I can understand why McDaniel is quickly the first person people want to lay blame upon.

Model citizen or not this would not be an example of addition by subtraction.

Just to add, putting blame on McDaniels for this is not warranted. Marshall was expected to ask for a new contract this offseason, regardless of who's coaching. This is about money.

Hopefully this gets resolved one way or another, just get it over with.
