Brandon Marshall says Broncos aren't dirty

Jeffrey Dahmer says he's not a cannibal.     Just because he ate pieces of human beings does not mean he's a cannibal.       If you look at some of the more ancient tribes of the world...  they would eat a person,  whole,  and then use the bones as tools.

I do.

I'm not sure Marshall does.

Fair.  I'm not defending him / them - that was a dirty game plan that resulted in dirty plays that I'm still fuming over.  I'm more just saying it's not at all surprising that the team doing the dirty things would deny they were dirty. Same as everyone else...not surprised.

eric smith of the jets broke anquan boldins jaw on this play a few years ago by launching himself head first at boldins head. Smith was fined $50,000 and suspended one game. 

At minimum, that is what Marshall should receive. The plays are eerily similar only, thankfully, Cam didn't have his jaw broken. 

This was also before the concussion issue was brought into the national spotlight.

Remember that time as a kid you got caught breaking some rules in your house and when your parents called you on it you immediately fessed up and took your lumps instead of denying you did it?  Anyone?

My 7 year old daughter was taking a shower last night. Told her to wash her body and whatnot, she calls that she's done so I can come help her wash her hair. I get in there and see that her loofah sponge thing is still hanging up dry. So I call her on it and instead of admitting it, she starts arguing with me saying she really did wash her body. Eventually she changed it to saying she didn't know how -she does- and that she thought I'd be mad she didn't so that's why she lied.

Marshall is acting like my 7 yr old daughter. He's a little girl.

The problem is that lying and minimizing the issue doesnt hurt him in any way and might help his case so of course he is going to minimize. What does he have to lose by minimizing and defending himself? 

Like your child lying to you about something.  If they get away with the lie 50% of the time and when they are caught the consequence is the same whether they lie or not, then why wouldnt they lie if they dont have well developed ethics? There has to be a consequence for the lying separate from the offense or it encourages lying since it doesnt cost anything to do it.

 

In Marshall's case he has nothing to lose and everything to gain by doing what he does.  Until he is found guilty there is absolutely no reason for him to act remorseful before the fine or suspension which assumes guilt and afterwards he intends to appeal it anyway so of course he is going to deny and minimize it.

Well he's acting like a child. Girls don't own that kind of behavior all by themselves :P

    • Not looking good for TB. Buffalo and Habs fans are the worst so I will be cheering for the meteor. 
    • Arguing about who had what and who did what with more is just going to end in the same charades. If we're going to waste a lot of hot air arguing then make it about something that cannot be denied. What you are seeing with your own two eyes. Cam Newton was a tremendously talented athlete albeit flawed in fundamental aspects. And although he played poorly in and lost a Super Bowl you cannot deny him that more often than not through his prime his teammates knew they could count on him to hold up his end of the bargain usually and be a key driving force for keeping them in games. Giving his defense much needed rest and motivation in wanting to match his grit as a competitor. That aspect is just not there with Bryce Young. Yeah he's dumped on the Falcons in a dome twice but what about his other 44 games? When has the Panthers defense the last three years ever looked at their starting quarterback and thought to themselves "man I'm so glad he's my QB"?
    • Rico walking is no big deal. I'll take a healthy 2024 Hubbard over Rico any time and losing Mays is, again, no a big deal.  Young is signed for what, $35M for the next two years? Say he wants $50M but the FO doesn't. If they put the franchise tag on him, that would be around $55? So basically they are getting Young for the next 3 years for an average of $30M per year. Putting the franchise tag on him wouldn't be my first choice but it gives them an option that wouldn't be locking him into a long term, $50M contract. I'm not suggestion they do that. Just that the option will be there should they get to that point. Hunt is on a 5 year deal which is done in 28 so he either restructures or is gone anyway. Moton will be 35 by then and will either be gone or have diminished playing time. Neither of those players has anything to do with getting Young a contract. The O line is way overpaid anyway. Hopefully by the time they are gone, Freeling and Hecht will be developed and Ickey will be healthy. Young was benched his second year and only got his job back because Dalton was injured. Not sure how you can call that entitled. And I would NOT say putting a rookie QB on a team with no receivers, tight ends or O lineman and then being put with a coach who never wanted you and is fired mid season, is a definition of luck. As far as competition, no team is going to bring in competition for a QB picked first overall - especially given the capital that was given up to get him.
