Michelle Beadle needs her own show, she also would have been perfect for Rusillo.

Thought I'd give Bomani Jones a spin tonight and he's gone to the race card on RG3. That's enough national sports radio for a while.

Parlett316 posted:What was his hot take besides that Robert only had a "decent" rookie season in his mind That teams couldn't wait to replace black QBs that were failing. He used the really odd example of Warren Moon at the very end of his career and Cody Carolson(sp) and then cited Vinny Testaverde interception numbers. Absolutely ignoring that RG3 has been poo poo the past two seasons. Also asserted that black QBs careers are over once they fail as starters. Cited Aaron Brooks of the Raiders never playing again after his horrible stint as our QB(although I'm pretty sure he was a back up elsewhere but don't hold me to it). Guess he never heard of Byron Leftwich, David Gerrard, Charilie Batch and I'm sure I'm forgetting others.

swickles posted:Either you weren't listening, or you heard what you wanted to hear. He used Warren Moon as the exception to the rule, that after he replaced the guy in Houston he ended up staying and playing until he was really really old. I mean, the argument is sound. Josh Freeman was Eli Manning for the first four years, they each had similar number the first 4 years of their career. Josh was traded, played on like a couple hours of learning the offense and is now basically out of the league. The argument wasn't that people don't like black QB's, but that they are more willing to fins excuses for white QB's and why they should start (not play backup like in the examples you cited) vs. black QB's. Also, it was like one bit in the middle of the show after he explained exactly how its Washington's fault that RG3 is ruined. Fair enough, I misheard the part on Moon, then. Freeman has had several chances on at least 2 or 3 teams(Miami and Minnesota come to mind immediately) to salvage his career, he's done. Starters or back ups, I still don't agree with the premise- Randall Cunningham, Daunte Culpepper, Steve McNair, McNabb, etc. CharlestheHammer posted:Plus the fact that the excuse "but he is bad"doesn't really work when your replacement is at least as bad. Because cousins is really bad. Seems that every Redskin goon who posted on it is in agreement that as bad as Cousins is, RG3 is worse.

swickles posted:Josh Freeman left Tampa with a pretty good track record, and was thrown to the wolves. The guy had like 2 days to learn an entirely new offense, so when he sucked rear end, he was written off. He went to Miami in the preseason, but that was after being without a team for a while, which I think is underestimated. If Eli Manning was shipped off after four years to play mid-season in a new system and sucked, he would have every excuse under the sun made for him. Culpepper left after a knee injury and was never the same due to rehab issues, so I don't feel comfortable with him in the sample size, but even if you insist, he was still towards the end of hi career. McNabb was benched towards the end of games because he supposedly wasn't as good at the two minute offense, plus he was on a different team after a decade+ long career, not after his rookie contract. Both of these guys played for multiple teams until injuries crippled them swickles posted:I know Vince Young and Jamarcus sucked, but they literally have had no shot to earn a way back into the NFL while Tim Tebow, Gabbert, Rex Grossman (Still today!), and Ryan loving Lindely have plenty of oppurtunities to prove they are worthy of a McCown-esque career. The point is that if you look at the exceptions to the rule, they are all black QB's who have earned contracts with the team that drafted them. Look at white QBs who don't get a second contract whether they are cut or traded and compare it to black QB's who are cut or traded before a second deal. I think the discrepancy is obvious. LOL @ trying to use Jamarcus Russell in this argument. Are you serious? Russell was loving terrible when he played. He also immediately got fat as gently caress after he left football and is probably the second biggest draft bust of all time. Young had some well publicized issues but was still signed by several teams after his time with the Titans, last one was with the Browns. CharlestheHammer posted:Fans always think the backup is the answer. Nobody thinks he's the answer. he's going to get them through the season and Fail for Cardale. But with a lot less distractions and possible death on the field. warcrimes fucked around with this message at 05:54 on Sep 2, 2015 |
