    Denver Broncos coach Josh McDaniels says he is benching Pro Bowl receiver Brandon Marshall for the team's critical season finale against Kansas City. McDaniels wouldn't directly address the reasons for his decision, although he mentioned accountability and said several other players will play Sunday with injuries worse than Marshall's who tweaked his right hamstring at practice Wednesday. Marshall said he didn't want to get into a war of words with McDaniels, but he did note that his coach never played in the NFL to realize how difficult it is to play hurt.

    so, mcdaniels is questioning marshall's toughness so he's going to bench him? why not lock him in a dark electrical closet for 3 hours during the game instead?

    Last game they kept trying to throw him screen plays got 8 catches for 38 yards. Such a weird stat when you think 8 catches thats usually a big game. Do the broncos still have a shot at the playoffs or are they out with the loss last week?

    I think they have to win and either the Jets have to lose or the Ravens have to lose.
