Is White is the new Black?


Awesomeness!!

Recommended Posts

While "arguing" with KT the other day he brought up the "fact" that we had never given a black QB a shot (Rodney Pete wasn't black I guess) Of course, his favorite NFL team is racist.......but they're are still his favorite NFL team lol. Anyway,I reminded him that there are more black coaches than QBs, and if I was a black nationalist, I would be more concerned with that, since Coaches have more power over the team than QBs. Then I asked him why the Panthers had never taken a shot at a white RB? No answer of course.

Anyway it made me think of all of the white RBs and WRs in the league this year, like Peyton Hillis, John Kuhn (oh the irony) Danny Woohead, everybody that plays for the Colts etc. Is this just a new fad, or is it a trend thats here to stay? If so, white is the new black!

Black quarterbacks, Hispanic quarterbacks, White runningbacks/receivers/cornerbacks, Asian anything...

Can't say I care about anything other than how well they play their position.

Heck, there was a time when more than half the kickers were from Bulgaria or somewhere.

Paint 'em all up like the aliens in Avatar and then no one will know who's what.

    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
