Marshall's performance in the Pro Bowl.......

IMO he took an aging Nat Moore and Irving Fryer, decent Mark Ingram and OJ McDuffie and above average Mark Duper and Mark Clayton, then he made them great.

 

Dan Marino

 

Drayton, Jordan, Cefalo, Thomas, Clark, Humphrey, Edmunds off the top of my head and Terry Kirby thrived with Marino throwing to him....

 

Dude, I'm all about the Wr. I played Wr, and Cb so usually the Qb's are my least favorites. But Marino had that it factor during the regular season. It meaning he was going to lead the team to win and in so many cases, he used his average catchers and made them look way above what they were.

 

Tim Tebow.......

Everyone in the NFL has an abundance of talent though.

 

One could debate everything to be true here......except Mark Clayton. Dude was definitely great.

 

Said the Bills GM!!





































OJ, Clayton, Warfield. My favorite Dolphins wideouts.

 

OJ Duffie is one of my favorite receivers, however it is very palatable that Marino was responsible for his solid NFL career and not a slap in the face at all.

That fact the Nat Moore played with Griese proves my point.

Duper and Clayton were fine receivers but neither would even considered Hall of Famers without Marino throwing them the rock.

 

mostly average football players..

Marino never had his own tight end that could dominate, never a big #1 wideout, never a run game, and never a defense...I don't wonder why he never won, Its obvious to me that the front office built the most ridiculously unbalanced football team ever..

 

I did watch them play. They would not be up there with Phil Simms or Mark Rypien as their quarterback.

 

70 Saints would have years of going 8-8 or better with Marino.

At one point in the season Revis had only given up 10 receptions, 5 of them were by Brandon Marshall. This atleast suggests that he is an elite talent, but this can definitely add fuel to the fire that if he can do this against one of the best cover corners in the game then he definitely should be bringing more to the table against lesser corners. Let's enjoy his success and hope that he shows up like this every game next year.

But he really doesn't need to be petitioning for a better QB nothing good can come from it.

 

Just saw the highlight. Glad he had a good moment.

 

Yes, I do believe that Brandon Marshall's performance warranted a pro bowl vote. If you think he didn't give a pro bowl peformance then tell me who should have gone in his place? I've listed the top 10 WRs in the AFC below. Try to justify to me a reason why Brandon Marshall did not deserve to be in the Pro Bowl

Wes Welker 1569/9
Mike Wallace 1193/8
Brandon Marshall 1214/6
Vincent Jackson 1106/9
Dwayne Bowe 1159/5
Nate Washington 1023/7
Stevie Johnson 1004/7
AJ Green 1057/7
Antonio Brown 1108/2
Pierre Garcon 947/6

 

If BM were the only fish in the sea you might have a point ...... if BM produced in real games you might have a point ....... if Jeff Ireland is unable to replace him you might have a point ....... And if Brian Hartline needs BM to perform at a high level he needs to hit the door too. That said I stand by every word .. the bus throwing puke need to get cut!

 

You really cant expect people to view your arguments as valid when you say stuff like that. You cant expect anyone to listen to your points if you cant express them without using hateful slurs and phrases like "bus throwing puke" (though I'm not quite sure I get that.) Difference of opinion is fine but you clearly have some sort of vendetta with Marshall and when you resort to baseless name calling like that it speaks volumes about your argument and you as a person.

 

Even though Archie Manning was pretty good, he was no Marino.

 

I just want him off this team. His presence on this team is cancerous and it drags everyone around him down. Miami had a better passing offense without Marshall than they have had with Marshall.

 

Finally. Someone who lives in the real world.

Brandon can learn a lot about how to be a professional from Matt Moore. Matt isn't going to say anything. He's not going to speak to the media about a loud mouth, glory seeking, selfish, me first, woman beating, touchdown dropping receiver.

And if you think this isn't going to happen to the next Dolphins quarterback, whether that is Matt Flynn or Ryan Tannehill, then just sit and watch. Brandon Marshall is no different than Terrell Owens. He is about himself and himself only. He doesn't give two ****s about anyone else on the team. He has a history of disrespecting anyone that comes into contact with him. My hope is that all of this ends with Brandon Marshall being sent to another team. The sooner Miami gets this cancer off this team, the better.

 

This isn't really true.

2010-2011 (w/ Marshall)

Complete Percentage - 60%
Yards Per Attempt - 7.0
TD/INT Ratio - 1.09

2009 (without Marshall)

Complete Percentage - 61%
Yards Per Attempt - 6.2
TD/INT Ratio - 0.79

The numbers are better with Marshall. (I didn't include 2008 because Pennington is far and away the best QB we've had in a while and is much better than any QB Marshall has had here.)

 

MTV's Real World, maybe.

 

How convenient.

 

It has nothing to do with convenience. It's about removing variables.

Marshall never played with Pennington. 2008 was two seasons before Marshall came to the team so it wouldn't make sense to compare the two.

Even if we just look at the 2009 compared to 2010 we are still better with Marshall. Td/Int ratio went up and so did yards per attempt.

 

To accomplish your point.

 

Our passing game in 2010 with Marshall was better than it was in 2009 without Marshall. It's pretty simple.

 

My 10 year old nephew asked me Why Marshall can play so good in the Pro Bowl and play so bad for the Dolphins.
I had to explain to him that the Pro Bowl is not a real game...... True Story.

 

I wish Miami had more players could play so bad for the Dolphins

 

And I'm sure he came to this conclusion solely through his own observations and not at all from his uncle who clearly doesn't like Marshall.

 

It's sad that some people feel that it's more important for them to be "right" about Marshall than it is to be happy for a Miami Dolphins player and the Miami Dolphins team for being in the spotlight of the NFL for the right reasons for the first time since 2008. And it's clearly a matter of people having a vendetta against Marshall. It's not a matter of his play. He was (at worst) the 4th best WR in the AFC this year. And when one can't get through a post without insulting him it's very telling of their motives. Some of you have had it out for him since the day we traded for him. Some of you don't like him because you perceive him as a wife beater when there's little to no evidence to support that claim. And some of you simply are on some crusade of jackassery.

It's simply ridiculous that people want us to cut our first Pro Bowl receiver in 6 years. Not only that, but they want to do it in the face of a $12 million bonus that would be accelerated on our cap putting us at practically ZERO dollars under the cap. Cutting Marshall means no Flynn, no Soliai, no Langford, hell it means no rookies without fundamentally restructuring some deals. But forget the fact that it would CRIPPLE the franchise to cut him, that doesn't matter to some of you. All that matters is your perception of him which is driven by a media that routinely publishes lies and slander. Despite not knowing if what's been reported is true or not, and despite not knowing the entire story, you decide to crucify the man for what you THINK he did or who you THINK he is. I know some people aren't happy unless they're miserable but a lot of you have shown your true colors of what kind of person you truly are in this thread. I'm very disappointed in several of you. Steven Ross isn't the embarrassment of this franchise, it's you people, and you know who you are.
