Brandon Stokley stops Brandon Marshall From Making a Fool of Himself
During the Browns and Broncos game last night, the Browns QB Brady Quinn had a pretty good debut but Jay Cutler outshined him by bringing his team back from behind to win it.
When the game was close in the 4th quarter, Cutler found Brandon Marshall in the back of the endzone for the go ahead TD and they didn’t look back from there.
Brandon Marshall had a creative idea hatched up for the end zone celebration but Brandon Stokley stopped him from doing it just in time so there would be no penalty’s.
Smart move. Here is Brandon Marshall’s explanation as to what he was going to do.
This would’ve just been stupid. I can understand you want to pay tribute to Barack Obama and black history, that’s fine but give a speech or an interview or something. At the very least, do it during a game that matters, not a game between two teams that probably won’t make the playoffs anyway.
Shout outs to Sportaphile for this one.

I think marshall should have done the celebration. It would have made a statement and in a time like this, i think these societal and cultural statements are more important than a football game.
who knows. maybe even with the 15yrd penalty they would still win

I feel what your saying JH but at the end of the day, in the eyes of his organization… the ones that are paying him all these millions of dollars, do you think they are gonna care about his statements?
I wouldn’t have had a problem with it if he did it in the second quarter but in a close game in the fourth quarter you can’t do something like that… Not if you want to keep your job
There are no trackbacks to display at this time.
