Porsche. Rolls Royce. These are what are on the line. Brandon Marshall confronted Antonio Brown to a bet for this upcoming season. If Marshall doesn’t have more receiving yards than Brown, then Brandon will offer his Porsche car to Antonio. If Brown loses the bet, Antonio must give the Rolls Royce he’s been driving to training camp. An interesting match to follow during the NFL season.
109 passes. 1,502 yards. 14 touchdowns. These are the impressive numbers that the Jets receiver put up in 2015. With Ryan Fitzpatrick as his quarterback, Marshall averaged 6.8 receptions and 12 targets per game. He is Ryan’s go-to guy in offensive coordinator Chan Gailey’s spread offense, getting the 1st looks from the QB. With his 6 foot 4 inch frame and 230 pounds, Brandon crushes smaller cornerbacks with fade routes in the end zone, making him uncoverable. All these paved the way for him to have a career year with Gang Green, more than when he was with the Denver Broncos, Miami Dolphins or Chicago Bears.
If there one player who can challenge Brown to a duel, it is Marshall. Brandon has the physical tools, QB and stats to back him up and lead to another spectacular season. Two elite receivers going head to head in a close bout. Brandon Marshall should come out on top. Bet on it.
