Even if Jerry Richardson did release a statement, it would just be like all of the other weak statements from NFL owners.

Something is better than nothing. Its like ignoring an obvious problem. Thats been a problem. White people need to stop ignoring racism and prejudice as if it doesn't exist.

I agree that he should say something, but he won't. 

Who are we to say what he should or shouldn't do? If the man felt like he needed to respond, he would. It's all reactionary BS. 

His statements are not the worst thing government has done in the sports world. It's not like there's Congressional hearings going on.

Bunch of old white men reacting to Trump, trying not to look racist. poo is hilarious.

EXACTLY! Kraft told his players (last year) he would match dollar for dollar donations to the community. Now, he wants to pull this crap..

Yet, with no evidence...they susupend players on a he said,she said situation and fight all the way to the Surpreme Court...over it.

 

NFL owners...GROW SOME BALLS and remind the employees  they are ON THE JOB.

He was stating this at a press conference and speaking as the President, not as a citizen. He doesn't get to say his opinion when he is acting and speaking as the president, sorry, doesn't work that way. 

Obama's spoken out over the Redskin's name and countless other issues in his speeches. Perfectly legal as long as government doesn't infringe upon anyone's rights. Saying words doesn't force anyone to do anything.

Whether you agree with the opinion or not, the President can legally say whatever's on his mind on matters.

You forget, the left gets the double standard pass on EVERYTHING...

    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight 
    • There's a reason Greg Maddux was never a flamethrower but still one of the most feared pitchers of all time, because accuracy beats velocity far more often then vice versa. Once you exceed a certain minimum capability, you can thrive with extreme traits elsewhere, its not strictly about power in any sport but powerlifting.
