Well....with the Patriots recent success and the fact that the NFL is to me, the MOST copy cat professional league of all sports....no one should be surprised.
McDaniels went through all that trouble trying to court Matt Cassel, only to lose him to his former GM, now in KC, Scott Pioli. Now, he's run off a Pro-Bowl QB (Cutler) and it appears he's running off a Pro-Bowl WR in Brandon Marshall.
Nice start McDaniels.
I know it's early to call, but I'm just glad the Browns ended up with Mangini and not McDaniels in this offseason's coaching selection.
Oh! That would be a perfect fit! Can you imagine him lining up opposite of speed burner, Devin Hester to reel in long balls thrown by J-Cut?! Oh my!!!
Hmmm. I've heard nothing of the sort here in Cleveland. I can actually almost tell you with 100% certainty that Brandon Marshall WILL NOT be coming to Cleveland and that rumor is nothing more than a fabricated one.
For 1, Mangini loves Cribbs. His work ethic is second to none. Plus, he's already mentioned that he wants to use Cribbs as a multi-functional player, ala Troy Brown. He wants Cribbs to play in the secondary, return kicks and play on the offensive side of the ball. As for Marshall, well, he doesn't exactly fit the "good character" guys that he's tying to build this team around. Again, I say.... 0.0% of B-Marshall coming to Cleveland.
Plus, right now our receiving corps includes:
Braylon Edwards
Donte Stallworth
Brian Robiskie
Mohamed Massoquoi
David Patten
Josh Cribbs
Mike Fuery
I'd say we've got enough wideouts to chose from to not give up such a valuable asset like Cribbs.
Not to mention a helluva coach being replaced by a inexperienced first timer! What a sucky time to be a Bronco fan!
When AFC West opponents face each other twice a year, they generally split their games, the Raiders just happened to have had quite the losing streak (Chiefs, Broncos and Chargers had like 6-7 game streaks v the Raiders?) which was finally broken last year. AFC West games are usually all pretty good ones.
Most of them are usually pretty good games is all I was saying, despite talent/record disparities.

Hi. My Name is Brandon Marshall. Is your team in need of an All-Pro WR? Tired of your team being the "squeeky-clean boy next door" type. Well I'm your answer. Let me show what domestic violence is all about, and I'll catch a few TD's along the way. I'll increase employment in your town, cuz you will need two full time 5-0's just to service my residence. I promise I won't hold out or demand a trade for at least 1 season, or until I get out of jail when they finally do convict my ass for something. Is your ho giving you trouble? Send over to my house, I'll teach her some respect! Are you feeling me Cinci, Dallas, Oakland?
Brandon Marshall. I'll help you beat people!
Brandon Marshall. I'll help you beat people!

To clarify this point, NFL said he won't see a suspension for this issue and despite all of these problems he had 1325 yards in 2007 and 1265 (15 games) yards in 2008 and was sent to the Pro Bowl.
He's got issues, but the guy can play and this will only be his 4th year in the league.
Imagine, that's only the incidents for which he was caught, you know there were a few more...

Nice start McDaniels.
For all the criticism of Mangini, he hasn't lost his players.
Quinn/Anderson are not going anywhere- as the Cowboys showed us, you NEED a deceny backup if one starter gets hurt- and I think they're starting to see the light on Braylon- you have to keep your young and talented wideouts.
In 5 years, Josh McDaniels will be to Denver what Matt Millen is to Detroit- the man who destroyed a once-proud franchise!
You'll see a Smart and Disciplined team under Mangini. He's already stated these two criterion will serve as the player attributes he wants to build around.
He's already gotten rid of the bad apples that didn't fit that mold including Kellen Winslow and Sean Jones. As for the players attempting to cause a distraction by asking for a new contract (kicker Phil Dawson and Josh Cribbs), they've both returned to camp without a new contract. Mangini doesn't put up with anything and I like it!
