Around camp

WR Brandon Marshall reported to the Broncos training camp, but said "I'm happy to play football. That's what I've been doing since I was a little boy, and hopefully that's what I can continue to do. I'm going to take advantage of any opportunity I have to play football."

So luckly for the Broncos, he will be playing this year.

Shaun Merriman says he wants to have the chargers on a higher level.
He said ,"I just want to help the team get back what we lacked last year -- nastiness and intensity and being physical. I think that's where you notice it, being away from the game. Some of the things that I was really good at doing, that is motivating everybody else, getting everybody else to take their game to another level."

He seems like he is trying to make the headlines, and that is what he did.

Now McNabb cautiously optimistic at start of his 11th training camp.

He sounds like a coach as he said, "We've got a lot of 20- and 21-year-old kids on this team. I'm 32 years old. I've seen a lot of what they've done in college, but again, it goes back to, 'Can you do the same things in college on the pro level?' And some have, some haven't. "We have a lot of young faces. We have a lot of new faces. For me to sit here and say, 'Hey, we're a Super Bowl team, and we're going to win the Super Bowl,' I don't believe in all that. I think that's something that at the end of the year, we'll find out who wins and who doesn't."

Coach Reid never could have said it better than his star QB.
