I agree. Marshall might have made some mistakes but he is a team player and a winner. In Denver the press gave him a bad rap. The guy wanted out after his close friend was killed. His contract sucked but after someone, don't know who, got to him with and heart to heart he became much more mature and played his heart out. At the end of the season it was obvious that he was gone.
The flip to Cutler was in jest. He has always liked Cutler. That was a mistake for sure.
I like the guy and with the right QB he will be a standout.
