This post is preposterous.
The reason Marshall's stats will not replaced by any one player is because this coach isn't running that kind of offense. None of the Dolphins WR's in 2012 are going to come anywhere near 147 targets.
The Marshall experiment was a dismal failure. He isn't an elite WR and he never was. He has never been rated any higher than the twenties.
Buy into the Philbin plan and you will be happier. Drink the Philbin cool-aid and believe that spreading the ball around to whoever is open instead of prioritizing one target, and you will be glad you did.
I love this new offense that makes diva WR's obsolete.
We don't need any of those over-hyped, over-paid jackasses demanding the ball. By the end of next year Philbin will have his core of WR's who can get open and catch the ball, and this offense will rock.
Great post! I totally agree on the Marshall experiment. What point is it to have a star WR if he isn't really a star.
We can be just as productive spreading the ball around to players who actually want to catch the football and pick up some YAC.
I got tired of seeing Marshall catch the ball (when he did) and giving that same old hitch move then falling down two yards after the catch. The guy was a glorified possession WR.
The plan failed and thus we moved on. Time to see the next installment with the fast paced WC offense which Marshall didn't fit at all.
I think having him here actually hurt the other WR's and changed their availability to get the ball and make plays.
Pretty bad when a so called star stunts the development of other players.
