Even saying all that which I agree to an extent, shame on Ireland for trading Marshall away without a backup plan at WR. I am sorry i dont feel L Robinson is considered a backup plan.There is a long list of Marshall incidents. I think Philbin didn't want his antics, and Ireland & Co. were tired of sitting on pin needles everyday wondering if today was going to be the day that Marshall did something stupid to get suspended or killed. That may sound overly dramatic, but drama and bad things seem to follow this guy. Yes Ireland traded for him, he tried, which is his job. He also acknowledged it was a mistake, and got out of it — while freeing up cap space and getting something in return. He dropped too many passes, had to much to say, had too many dumb penalties. He has #1 talent, but his other actions take away from his as a player. Philbin said in his opening press conference, to paraphrase — we want men with high moral character — the beast did not fit that.
