Is White is the new Black?


Awesomeness!!

Recommended Posts

While "arguing" with KT the other day he brought up the "fact" that we had never given a black QB a shot (Rodney Pete wasn't black I guess) Of course, his favorite NFL team is racist.......but they're are still his favorite NFL team lol. Anyway,I reminded him that there are more black coaches than QBs, and if I was a black nationalist, I would be more concerned with that, since Coaches have more power over the team than QBs. Then I asked him why the Panthers had never taken a shot at a white RB? No answer of course.

Anyway it made me think of all of the white RBs and WRs in the league this year, like Peyton Hillis, John Kuhn (oh the irony) Danny Woohead, everybody that plays for the Colts etc. Is this just a new fad, or is it a trend thats here to stay? If so, white is the new black!

Black quarterbacks, Hispanic quarterbacks, White runningbacks/receivers/cornerbacks, Asian anything...

Can't say I care about anything other than how well they play their position.

Heck, there was a time when more than half the kickers were from Bulgaria or somewhere.

Paint 'em all up like the aliens in Avatar and then no one will know who's what.

    • It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly. 
    • If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
    • He had heart surgery a while back he looks Fraile I hope he is okay
