Some dude ripping Vick a new one for fun


Recommended Posts

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.

    • I think we have some revisionist around it here because of all the drama around Tepper's involvement. If you pull up any scouting report from the time you'll see the same take. WalterFootball's report sums up the media's thoughts on him well: "Young has everything the NFL is looking for in a quarterback except in terms of weight and height." He was the consensus top QB of his draft and the only real question mark they had about him was whether his body could hold up in the NFL. The infamous Steph Curry comparison the Panthers latched onto came from Albert Breer. The excuses I've heard for him are more anecdotal. Bryce Young's development is the only bullet point most NFL fans have on the Panthers right now. That and the coaching turnover. If you're not actually watching our games it's easy to believe this is just a dysfunctional organization that doesn't know how to unleash this talented Heisman winner.  I've seen media and fans alike run with that narrative way more than criticizing Young outright. Whenever we win there's flocks who use it as proof that the Panthers just need to be patient.  
    • So maybe 1-3 vs playoff teams, going by standings as of today. I guess that is an improvement.  We are just about improved enough to be in purgatory draft wise. It really isn’t so bad in the 1st unless you really want that top QB or maybe edge guy because there are usually plenty of good players at the top but it hurts you some as get deeper in the draft.
