The New York Jets missed the playoffs this season. The Carolina Panthers and Denver Broncos did not. They're also playing for a Super Bowl in less than two weeks, proving they're the two best teams in football.
Yet, despite those simple facts, Brandon Marshall believes the Jets are better than both the Panthers and the Broncos. What?!
He made the somewhat ridiculous statement Wednesday night during his appearance on "The Nightly Show." And understandably, he paid the price for saying it by being pelted with tea bags. Seriously.
Here's how the conversation went with host Larry Wilmore:
Wilmore: "Your Jets team barely missed the playoffs this season. You guys had a really good year. I thought you were going to go a long way. But you didn't. That's alright."
Marshall: "It's not alright."
Wilmore: "I'm sure you'd love to be preparing for the Super Bowl, right? Everybody knows that. Are your Jets better than both teams playing in the Super Bowl?"
Marshall: "Yes. Yes. Absolutely. We missed the playoffs. I mean, you've got to look at it..."
And that's where Wilmore cut him off to ask, "You're better than the Panthers?!" while proceeding to throw "weak tea" at him.
"Listen, it's about who's hot!" Marshall tried to explain.
Wilmore wasn't having it, telling Marshall, "You're not better than the Panthers! I don't even want to hear the rest."
It's safe to say Marshall's claim was debunked by Wilmore. The full exchange can be seen at the 9:48 mark in the video below.
Marshall did get a jab in earlier in the show. He told Wilmore, a Seahawks fan, "Y'all got your butts kicked."
Marshall's "win" didn't last long, with Wilmore responding, "When's the last time the Jets were in the Super Bowl? You were on the Broncos and you're not there and now they're in the Super Bowl."
Maybe Marshall should stick to talking trash on the field, because his late night trash talk didn't go so well.

I have no problem with him saying that. If he truly believes that, then good for him. Still, Fitz ain't on the level of Cam or Peyton

Must've forgot to take his meds

Panthers better offensive lineI'm a Broncos fan thru and thru but ? , if the Broncos better, then the Panthers def better.
QB-panthers due to Manning age
running backs is a push
Wide Recievers Denver
TE Panthers
D-line Denver
Linebackers-Denver Ware, Miller, Marshall, Trevathan (leads team in tackles was 2nd in nfl in tackles 2 years ago, underrated) Denver has depth at LB
Cornerbacks-Denver Talib, Harris, Roby
Safeties Denver

The Jets had a good squad last year despite Fitzpatrick ? up in some big moments (especially Week 17). I could argue the Broncos but Panthers no ? way.

If amaro n devin smith come back healthy n play well. N we get a good young rb. We could make a run next year.

"It's about who's hot..."
Like the Panthers snuck in at 9-7 and caught a few lucky breaks in the playoffs. -

Defense still gonna let ya'll down when it counts. Revis Island going underwater. -

Panthers were like 8-8 the year before. Seahawks , and Sherman, had the cockiness of world champs a year or so before tbey won it all. No problem with his statement and considering their young talent on D its not just craziness he talkin even if its not true today.

Brandon need to worry bout his QB being more like carson palmer than cam newton...Fitzpatrick has a history of playing ? when it counts
