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

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
