Is Richard Marshall in over his head?

[Dpantherman]

I really like him, but the more I see him, the more he aggravates me. Antonio Bryant owned him all day Sunday, and he hasn't been the first. Granted, most of it was a height advantage, i still have my reserves about the guy. Im really worried about him matching up with Welker. can you imagine what will happen when Moss moves over Marshall for the big play? hopefully Gamble will blanket him all day.

I like Munnerlyn on Welker. They're similar in size and Munnerlyn won't be afraid to jack him up when necessary.

Hell even CJ Wilson is better than Marshall.

Unless im mistaking, did he not take over for Marshall after he kept getting beat up?

I think he got to be the nickel since Munnerlyn didn't play. But yeah, I think they eventually let Wilson cover Bryant.

Marshall was doing OK. Bryant somehow has a thing for making 2-3 super-ridiculous catches over the shoulder one handed while going to the ground per game, and I don't know how you defend that.

I like Wilson over Munnnerlyn.

It's amazing that Bryant was out the league for a few years. Sure his character was in question, but he did well in SF considering their QB problems and has a knack for some spectacular catches. He is performing well this season despite missing a couple of games, so I am not too concerned about our troubles keeping him contained.

I would be more worried about how they suddenly realised Winslow was open a lot. If they had targeted him like they did towards the end, then we were in trouble.

Someone threw out a stat that Marshall's side is generating a QB rating of 40. I would love to have that confirmed or denied, as like most I am a little unsure of Marshall. If it is true, then it is clear that we, as fans, do not know what the coaches can see

Oh and Munnerlyn on Welker all day, I do not care if he even gives PIs. Welker is so dangerous after the catch, we just need to prevent it getting to him. Have him jump on his back all game. Frankly I am more concerned with Gamble. No way he contains Moss. In my mind Gamble is no worse than Marshall.

It just seems to me like Marshall doesn't play as aggressive as he used to.

Munnerlyn is so aggressive for 5'9". I love to watch that kid play

Marshall is SECOND on this team in tackles, second in Passes Defended, and is tied for the lead in Interceptions.

He's fine.

That is true he is good at tackling & is a solid player. However, a lot of those tackles are from him getting burned by the opposition then had to take them down.

[Delhommey]

In all fairness, 2-3 of those catches were pretty much undefendable.

He might be in over his head with certain match ups, but I think his struggles are slightly exaggerated. I still think of him as a solid player.
