Very few small white guys would play well in our offense, considering how much of a beating the QB is required to take. 

Not sure why folks have to go the “white guy” route. People said that CMC wouldn’t be worth the pick because he was a “white RB.” Turns out that was garbage.

 

There has been uproar over comments on guys like Cam and Deshaun being “black QBs.” They’re both above average for their position. 

 

Can we stop with the race in sports perspectives?

No.  I actually said, specifically, "small white guys" for a reason.  

Most black QBs who become starters are huge.  Most white QBs are tiny by comparison, and there are VERY few white QBs who are athletic enough to survive the pummeling Cam has to on a regular basis.  This is simple fact.

Signed - Small white guy.

Not intending to make anyone butthurt.  Just looking at the players that are "typical" for the demographic.  CMC is an exceedingly rare case.  I'm simply stating that on average, black QBs are much larger than white QBs, and are much, much more athletic.  You're nuts if you think the Rodgers and Bradys of the world can absorb the punishment that Cam Newton does.

It's not a knock against white QBs.  It's just that in our specific offense, there are very few white QBs out there that would be successful.  Don't get triggered over nothing.

Race and size don’t have anything to do whatsoever with toughnessness. There are literally a million examples. Just like race and size have nothing to do with intelligence as some would say ‘athletic’ qbs lack ‘intellect’ to be a QB.

Idiotic statement.

      Another example of Bryce playing chess that casuals wouldn’t notice or appreciate

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I'm probably one of those posters, but I make those posts because there are too many things going on that don't make sense. For instance, how does a RB that does something that hasn't been done in 14 years immediately get reverted back to 2nd string, and it takes a leadership council to make him the starter when he's averaging 3x the YPC? Your average fan shouldn't be screaming that for 2 weeks before the coach sees it. And that's one of many.  What you're seeing is frustration that we could be better, that we should be better, if our owner, FO, and coaches could do things that are so painfully obvious to even the most basic fan

      I think we're all struggling with what things are right now and what they have been. It's like getting ready to have bandages removed after a long period of injury. The healing, the new growth, they aren't going to be pretty, there's going to be some ongoing issues for a while at best and there's every chance that we're going to have to go back into the bandage situation all over again. And that sucks. But it's also a place where maybe, just maybe, the recovery is going to finally start happening. The bad days will be getting behind us.  It's not going to happen this year, but I believe from what I see that this year is showing that improvement. We focus on the QB because that's what all the pundits focus on, because it's the flashiest and most heralded position on the field. No one wants to put out a tweet about how a center is holding down their job and anchoring a line. They rarely celebrate that blocking tight end or special teams gunner. That fourth CB on the depth chart? Not a mention. And yet, those guys are the kind that we've been building here, we're building the lunch pail guys AND finding some future stars.  Is Bryce one of them? Might be a cornerstone of the team in the future as the second QB, might somehow just show out to end the season. Might flame out like many expect. But if that uncertainty is all we concentrate on, we're just going to miserably look at this team and maybe miss out on some solid green shoots that are finally beginning to poke through into the sunlight.
