Brandon Marshall may play wide receiver for the Chicago Bears, but he’s also a paid analyst, who knows who terrible teams are not deserving of the national spotlight.
Marshall is out for the season with rib injuries, while the Bears and their next opponent, the New Orleans Saints are both a disappointing 5-8.
According to ESPN.com, Marshall believes the Bears-Saints matchup should be taken off Monday Night Football.
In fact, Marshall believes the Bears and Saints don’t deserve the national stage of ESPN’s “Monday Night Football.”
“Yeah, they should take us both off ‘Monday Night Football’ right now,” Marshall said Monday during “The Brandon Marshall Show” on ESPN 1000.
Both teams enter the upcoming clash at Soldier Field with 5-8 records. The only difference is the Saints are still vying for a postseason spot, while the Bears were officially eliminated from contention on Sunday by virtue of Detroit’s victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
