Brandon Marshall says Kyle Orton is best QB he has played with
There was a time when Brandon Marshall and Jay Cutler were each other’s biggest fan, but their relationship seemed to deteriorate a bit during a disappointing 2014 season. Still, Cutler is still the best quarterback Marshall has played with, right?
Wrong.
During a Q&A session with his Twitter followers on Thursday, Marshall was asked to pick the best quarterback out of the many he has caught passes from. His answer might surprise you.
Probably… Kyle Orton just bad body https://t.co/BntiGmUx3N

Looking past the cheap shot at Kyle Orton’s dad bod, we didn’t see that answer coming. Marshall and Cutler enjoyed great success together with the Denver Broncos, and Marshall was Jay’s favorite target with the Bears — oftentimes to a fault. However, there was a minor incident in the locker room last season that may have soured things a bit.
As The Big Lead notes, Marshall caught 101 passes for 1,120 yards when Orton started for the Broncos in 2009. Marshall has had better seasons with Cutler, but apparently that didn’t sway his opinion.
