How did the John Marshall continue to expand national government power in the Gibbons v Ogden case?

In Gibbons v. Ogden Marhsall firmly established the superiority of the US Constitution to all state law, where the two intersect. There was debate whether if state law was made first, if it could be considered superioir, Marshall settled this and said that all state law had to be made within the realm delegated to the states, and if it could possibly affect a federal realm, or another state's sovereignty, then the federal law was supreme. He also, in keeping with his decision in McCulloch, continued his argument and codification of ancillary powers that the constitution implicitly reserves for the National government. He admits that there are areas were the powers of the states and the powers of the nat'l government are concurrent, but again asserts nat'l dominance. He argues that if congress is not given an expansive view of its powers, we are trapped to the shortcomings of the articles of confederation, and that one state could in effect tax the rest of the states by restricting or taxing a good. In the Constitution he relies primarily, for textual support, on Art. 1 § 8 cl. 3 and Art. 1 § 10.
