Brandon Marshall snubs Jay Cutler, names Kyle Orton as his best QB
Brandon Marshall shared the field with Jay Cutler for three seasons in Denver and three in Chicago. In 2008, as Broncos, they made their first Pro Bowl together. In 2012, reunited as Bears, Cutler helped Marshall set career-high figures for receptions (118) and receiving yards (1,508).
But if Cutler's looking for some love, Marshall's unwilling to give it. In a recent Twitter Q&A, a fan asked Marshall a simple question: Who is the best quarterback you've played with?
Probably... Kyle Orton just bad body https://t.co/BntiGmUx3N

Wait...Kyle Orton? Seriously?
Orton was Marshall's quarterback for just one season in Denver (2009). While he certainly tops the Chad Henne/Matt Moore combination Marshall experienced with the Miami Dolphins from 2010-11, one season cannot compare to the impressive body of work he created with Cutler.
Marshall's answer to a run-of-the-mill Tweet in his mentions is clearly a shot at Cutler. Now that Marshall is a member of the New York Jets, it might not be long until he's missing his former Bears teammate. Jets starter Geno Smith was one of the worst-rated quarterbacks in the NFL last season.
