Aren't we past the era of everyfamous black figure having to represent his entire race? Warren Moon has never liked being heralded as the greatest "black" QB.

I've never once thought a SINGLE thought a long the lines of:

"My goodness Vick is a thug. I'm going to assume that all Black quarterbacks are thugs now. I'm officially off the Armanti Edwards bandwagon now, I don't care if he's a WR now. He's black and Vick is the official spokesmen of Black QB's."

Its a plot by the white man to keep brothers down don't you know. Dammit I think we drop the ball on that last presidential election.

Maybe there aren't any good black QB's because being a smart little league, HS, or college (or whatever lower level of Football play) coach they put the good athletes outside or in the backfield. You put the slow white kid at QB. Really generalizing here but it is what it is.

Damn...I am black too and agree with every word of this article. I hope KT don't bash me and Jason Whitlock as a "cracker" lover or disowning my own race.

      Canes in six what years?    I'll be shocked if they win one game not to get swept lol if you think that I urge you to go watch the press conference that's a team that's mentally beaten and has no answers.

      Disagree that CB is a massive need.

      This sentiment is really starting to bother me. Because, you are right. We do have one of the most well run organizations in the league. And, a lot of fans seem to think that Rod is that entire organization. This line of thinking completely discredits all of the hard work that GMs, scouts and players have put in to make the team what it has become. Not to mention the impact that the ownership change has had on the team. You will never hear me singing the praises of a billionaire. But, the fact is, we went from a cap floor team to a cap ceiling team under TD. Have we dramatically improved from the dark old days since Rod took over? Absolutely. But, he wasn't the only one contributing to that rise. And if he leaves, the house of cards isn't going to magically crumble. At this point, we've seen enough players leave and flourish (or come here and wither) to know that isn't true. The organization isn't one man. But, one man is responsible for setting lineups, line combos, d pairings and drawing up set plays. And, to me, that is what lost us these 2 games in embarrassing fashion. I don't believe that Florida is just some unbeatable juggernaut running roughshot over the league. Last I checked they didn't go 82-0. If you believe this is a personnel issue, by all means, bame the players, the scouts and the GMs. Blame everybody but RBA. If there was one player or position group to blame, I would tend to agree with you. When an entire team collapses, it's not on the players. It's on the leadership and they are the ones who should be held accountable.
