WR Marvin Harrison, Jr. (Silver Football, 2x Unanimous All-American, 2023 Biletnikoff winner, Heisman Finalist, Arizona Cardinals)

Explodes for 4 catches for 98 yards in the 1st quarter just to be ignored the rest of the game. Trash QB and trash coaching are not helping him build momentum
I was screaming at the midget the rest of the game

Edit: Oh and I forgot, the replay official erroneously reversed the TD call on the field and stole the TD from him ( and money from me no less!)

“I CAN’T DEAL WITH IT.” Hours before Marvin Harrison Jr. ran out of the tunnel for Monday Night Football in Dallas, Marvin Harrison Sr. ripped into the Cardinals’ franchise in an interview with ESPN’s Josh Weinfuss.

"It's very hard for me to watch the Cardinals' offense," Harrison Sr. told ESPN. "And you can quote me on that."
A season and a half into his son's NFL career, the elder Harrison has been forced to grapple with being a former player who's the father of a current player. The balance needed to navigate that isn't always easy to find. Harrison Sr. can't help but watch his son's games with the critical eye of a former player, and he wants, desperately, to help his son, to tell him what to do, to try to fix Arizona's issues. But Harrison Jr. is an adult, a well-compensated professional, a fourth pick, and Harrison Sr. knows it's his time to sit on the sideline, watch and try to enjoy his oldest son's professional career.
But it's hard. The 53-year-old Harrison Sr. is aware of how he sounds.
"The style of offense that I am accustomed to, that I'm used to watching as a professional eye, as a wide receiver ... I just can't relate to watching that [current] offense, that style of offense," Harrison Sr. said. "Basically, I can't relate to what goes on there.
"I think that's just peacefully put, without pointing fingers or anything. It's just me. I'm giving you the professional eye. I can't relate to it. It don't add up to me. I can't deal with it."

Those words aren't new to his son.
Harrison Jr. has heard his dad's concerns and complaints dating back to last season. But Harrison Sr. walks a tightrope when he brings up football with his son, a rare occurrence these days. He stays away from talking about the day-to-day, not wanting to be an armchair quarterback from across the country because he's not there, in the meetings, and he doesn't understand the intricacies of the Cardinals' scheme like he did the Peyton Manning-led offense in Indianapolis.
"I don't get into what goes on the field and the things that I see," Harrison Sr. said. "I just leave it alone. I don't even bother bringing it up no more."
Sheesh.

Harrison Sr.’s harsh criticism paid off for Harrison Jr. — for now. The Ohio State great had seven catches for 96 yards and one touchdown in the Cardinals' 27-17 win over the Cowboys. We'll see if he can build off that performance next when Arizona heads to Seattle for an NFC West showdown with the Seahawks.
