Brandon Marshall Called Out By NFL Network's Michael Lombardi

What do you guys think of Miami Dolphins wide receiver Brandon Marshall? Michael Lombardi of the NFL Network apparently doesn't think much of the guy who is Miami's best offensive player.

"No receiver drops more balls than Brandon Marshall in the league," Lombardi said. "He's one of the top five receivers in dropping passes. ... I wrote on my Twitter account that he's not a No. 1 receiver. People [were] all over. Some agreed, some were giving me a bunch of junk, but the reality of it is No. 1 receivers don't drop passes. Number 1 receivers are able to get down the field and make explosive plays.

"Brandon Marshall is a good player," Lombardi continued. "He really is. And I've said this before, but he's a yards-after-catch receiver. He needs to break tackles and get open. What he allowed [Darrelle] Revis to do to him showed he's not a No. 1 guy. He's got enough skills to be a No. 1 player but he doesn't play like it, especially when he drops the ball."

According to the article in the Sun Sentinel Marshall has seven drops this season out of the 61 times he has been targeted -- and five of those drops would have been touchdowns. Marshall was critical of the Dolphins' game plan against the New York Jets recently because "the ball wasn't coming to me enough."

More from Lombardi:

"For [Marshall] to take shots at the game plan, I think is really unfair," Lombardi said. "It's kind of a low blow. He could have done a couple things to help that team win [against the Jets], like catch a touchdown pass early in the game or not run out of bounds when nobody was pushing him out of bounds."

Yikes! I will take Hakeem Nicks and the other Giants' receivers any day over the divas like Marshall any day.

You know what he deserves it. Revis had him locked down and when he got his chance he choked. He is continuing the same pattern he had in Denver.

Lombardi is correct

He dropped a TD pass against the jets, stumbled and fell into Revis (leading to the fatcesca stupidity) on Island’s TD return and inexplicably ran out of bounds on a crossing route when he caught the ball a good 10 yards from the sideline. If he wants to skewer anyone, he should start with himself

He had the opportunity to win that game all by himself and blew it. He has the ability to do it though, so have to be careful when playing a guy like that. Never know when all of a sudden he’ll put a full game together.

Revis has amazingly strong hands.

And to think the Giants were going to pick him in that 2007 draft if he was still there….

If fans here wanna think that this game should be a win, I have no problem with it. We’re not the ones playing or over looking the Fins, its Eli and Co. job to stayed focused. As long as the Giants see this as “we have to play mistake free ball against a team looking for their first win”, that’s all I ask for.
If the Giants lose, its not anyone here’s fault cause they proclaimed a easy victory, it goes on the players and coaching staff for falling into a trap game.
I don’t care if every fan on this site says Giants win 76-2 (Safety on Carr with 3 minutes to go).

There seems to be a direct correlation between Media and Fan Perception and how the Giants perform.

Media yes

but Fan Perception… I can’t buy that. This team feeds more on doubters and haters on the national media stage.
If any Giant player is one this site right now and is thinking “Hey guys, The Always Well Dressed… said this is gonna be a blowout, we can relax this Sunday”… then this team has ego problems that are not fixable.
When players start playing based on what nut job fans like us think, then you are no where near focused on the goal at hand.

You have to understand though

You’re talking on an individual basis.

I’m not talking about that at all.

Fan perception directly reflects media perception for the most part. When I say “we’re screwed because I already see the same conversations we had about Seattle” it’s not the conversations guys like you and I are having, it’s the guy that comes here just to say we’re gonna whoop the Dolphins ass, and have no problem doing it, because that’s the perception of this team right now…created by the media, and it turn the common fan.

So I’ll stick to my guns on this one, the common fan, and media alike think we’re going to walk all over the Dolphins. It’s going to be one of the most difficult games of the season because of that, IMO.

Does that make any sense in any sort of logical way whatsoever? No…not at all. But why can’t this team beat the Browns on Sunday night when everyone in the world thinks there the best team in football, why can’t we beat the hapless Seahawks after dismantling two better teams, why can’t we win big games at home? On the other side, why do we beat the Bills when doubt creeps back? Why can we beat the Cowboys, Packers, and Patriots in games whe honestly had no business winning?

It doesn’t make any sense at all. And it’s not just this era, we’ve been doing it for decades. Look at the Vikings NFC Championship game, Minnesota was supposed to be able to handle our defense, after that explosion we were supposed to be able to take it to Baltimore. Neither outcome came to fruition.

Win ugly.

Brown game was on Monday night

but I agree with your point, I have no idea why they play the opposite of the media perception is. I just believe the fan view is just an extension of what the media tells us to think, nothing else.
Maybe the coaching staff loves giving the team bulletin board material. So ifs that the case, when the media says this game should be a blowout… I hope TC shows the guys video of the Seahawk game, thats enough to motivate anyone.

Gotta agree with tommy

A few more losses and all those egos will fully erupt and they’ll cannibalize themselves. Even if they Cowboys lose, they’ll still think they’re the best team ever and will play like it.

WOW

Brandon Marshall is an amazing WR when he’s on his game. Hes having a lot of drops this year… Ok it happens! He’s the best offensive player on the dolphins and he doesn’t have a legit QB throwing him the ball. He IS a prototypical #1 WR and for Lombardi to say that Revis showed he wasn’t is completely stupid!! Revis is the best corner in the game.. He makes almost all #1 WR’s look not as good as they really are.. As for who I’d give up to have him is simple. Manningham or Cruz, Hixon, Clayton, and every other WR except HK88 and Jernigan. Brandon Marshall is a crazy WR. Look at the team he’s playing for and the situation him and his team are in and then come talk. Make Eli throw him the ball, make him play for a team like the giants and you’d see what he really could do.

by MIKES92 on Oct 26, 2011 3:35 PM EDT via mobile reply actions  

Totally see your point.

But I just have to disagree. Vehemently. While the physical attributes are just fascinating and outstanding, Brandon Marshall can’t get out of his own head sometimes, or even a lot of times. Borderline personality disorder. Wasn’t he also involved in a semi-serious domestic disturbance during the offseason – which may have not been his doing AT ALL, but still shows that he is apt to surround himself with people that may end up hurting him.

Anyway, I like the guys we have. They’re ours. I’ve seen them go through ups and downs, season-ending injuries, fight like hell to make the team, and in some cases, win us some games. That gets my loyalty a lot more than athletic and physical potential and attributes.

Thats just me though. Definitely don’t begrudge you for having a different opinion.

by BKiddo on Oct 26, 2011 3:47 PM EDT up reply actions  

That's true I get what u mean also!

I’m just a fan of his.. I think he’s a great WR

by MIKES92 on Oct 26, 2011 3:56 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions  

there's been a ton of perfectly catchable balls that he's dropped

doesn’t matter if its Joe Montana or Matt Moore throwing him the ball, he’s got the dropsies.

I think Marshall can be summed up pretty easily

as a physically dominating athlete that’s held back by his mental state, more often than not.

He’s had not just domestic disputes, but has been involved in some very immature stuff. Horsing around with your brother to the point of accidentally smashing your own arm through a TV sounds like something you do when you’re 10, not in your mid-20s. And the whole “monster” thing leading up to the Jets game, he honestly sounded like a 5th grader trying to explain to the media the difference between a beast and a monster. It was awkward to watch.

The BPD diagnosis makes a lot of sense for him and explains a lot of the complexities of his personality and actions. I’m glad that he’s getting help for it, because he seems like a guy that isn’t a TO-type (selfish to the point of being malicious in a locker room), more someone who creates problems for himself through his immaturity that seems to stem from his disorder.

All this said, I’d still take Nicks over him, as I believe he’s just a better player and will prove it when all is said and done.

Read up on BPD… It’s not that he changes personalities just like that. Read up about it. It’s very interesting. And to b honest, I don’t know why ppl have names for all these “disorders” and then need therapy or pills to help it. Like for real, who’s normal in this world?? Show me one person thats perfectly normal on all levels. Everyone has something it’s life.

#1 receivers don't drop passes?

Ummm….really? That’s news to me. I was under the impression that #1’s generally lead the league in dropped passes ALL THE TIME because they’re targeted more often.

Look at T.O.’s career. Look at Randy Moss. And those are two of the greatest WRs in the history of the game.

More poor mainstream media reporting as usually.
