WR Marshall Benched by McDaniels

He has more upside than T.O. (reports Shanny would want him) plus he is younger and I think he respects Shanny more that McDaniels and buys into his system.

He's a very talented player, no doubt. But he's sitting out a very important game that has playoff implications over a minor injury. Do we want someone like that?

Let's recap the general vibe of the Warpath the last two years "We need linemen....we need linemen...we need linemen...we drafted 2 WRs and 1 receiving TE in the 2nd round?? Our Front Office is so stupid!!!...we need linemen....we need linemen...We don't need to trade for OchoCinco! We don't need any damn receivers! Damnit. Our front office is sooo stupid!!....we need linemen...we need to stop trading picks for other team's malcontents...we don't need more receivers....we need linemen...our front office is so stupid....we'll probably need a RB...maybe a QB....our front office is so stupid. Why did we draft WRs when we needed linemen....we don't need to keep trading picks....our front office is so stupid....hey let's go after Brandon Marshall!!"

thought he was trying to play and mcdaniels sit him?

He sat him because he wouldn't play. I know, kind of redundant isn't it?

ok. read that he doesnt want to play for the reason he doesnt want to take a chance on getting hurt at the end of his contract year. you would think he would play if its possible.

I 100% agree it has been shifting from this to that and so on but I would rather have Marshall over T.O. if he was looking to acqurie a big time WR like the rumors have been. I have just faced the fact that the new regime will completely rearrange the roster some will stay some will go.

lolololol...no doubt....I wouldnt give a draft pick but Cooley or Laron..hmmmm might do that...

I'm not for nor against it. He would definitly make us better at the WR spot yet might hurt us if Shanahan can't keep his ego in check.

I don't like the fact that somewhere I read Denver might command a 1st round pick for him which I would not want to give up. Unless it's next years cause I would assume we will be a better team next year and be farther down in the draft. I figure Shanahan will want his franchise QB this year while were so high in the draft.

If Denver didn't command a lot for him I'd say take him.

People say all the time that they don't want any head cases on their team but it's the head cases that have all the talent, or so it seems. R.Moss, T.O., Ochocinco, and Portis a few years back. I mean I loved Gibbs and his idea of picking players with good character, but honestly I could settle for one or two on the team if it makes us a contender for the future. As an example look at T.O. he will be a FA at seasons end. Shanahan tried to pick him up in Denver when he still had a job with them. T.O. was not so bad in San Fran, was not bad with the Eagles until the year he left, was almost an angle in dallas and honestly even I saw times when Romo should have been able to get the ball to him but didn't. He goes to Buffalo and has been the team player everyone wants. Kept his mouth shut through the whole first half of the season when their crappy QB couldn't get the ball to him.

Again I'm not for nor against them, but if they can some what be kept in check and still help this team then I'm for it. I know T.O. is a FA are there any others available so we don't have to give up the farm to get them?

I agree with everything you said. But it's not everyday that a player of this caliber might be on the block. Marshall is a total beast. Shanahan knows how to handle this guy and it looks like he's done some growing up. McDaniels is way off questioning is toughness. If he out there this off season we had better try and make a move. Both Marshall and Tony S. might be available.
