Isn’t Mahomes only half-black?
“I watched a game yesterday where at no point did I ever count more than 3 white guys on the field.”
and that’s counting the refs.
Actually that might be changing with more and more Euros playing in the NBA.
Tiger Woods used to get pissed off because the media would call him an African American golfer. He was only 1/4 Black.
Based on his work off the greens with the ladies you can guess what quarter of Tiger was black.
steaming load of BS. Thats all you see now. In fact, I’m shocked when I see a white QB
Perhaps it the fact black qbs in college tend to have a certain mobile style that doesnt always transition well to the NFL
He was night putting, you know, putting at night.
RG III is the Cautionary Tale. Looked great that first year, getting the Redskins to the playoffs, then he got hurt, and that was all she wrote.
Per John Mellencamp, their just performing for the man.
The underlying premise here is that they are great quarterbacks simply because they are born black or were assigned the black race when they were born.
I expect to see a story on too many white players in the NBA.
Can we run the same analysis based on actual talent?
Yet so called conservatives can’t get enough of the woke NFL.
The best part about this article?? Its from the SFGate. San Francisco- the same city that drafted Trey Lance, a black QB that’s turned into one of the biggest busts in draft history.
When the opposite is true. There’s a craze for the ‘athletic QB’, one which blacks are a better fit. The problem is that QB’s really don’t need to be that athletic, it’s more of a mental position. Therefore, their representation should be more closely aligned with the IQ distribution of the general population.
How many black QB’s have a SB ring? Cam Newton didn’t. You have Mahomes and Russell Wilson (both half black?)....against; Brady, Manning x2, Stafford, Aaron Rogers, Carson Wentz, Drew Brees, Bret Favre, Joe Flacco, Steve Young, etc. etc. even while there were plenty of starting black QB’s in the league.
I’d argue there’s more than enough data to conclude that, unlike many other positions, the QB position gains very little with ‘athleticism’...it just, partly, makes up for an intellectual deficiency but can’t win it all. The best teams don’t need it.
CJ Stroud was not much better, except for one game against Georgia, then did horribly in all the QB IQ tests administered before the draft, and he was taken second.
BTW- the best running back in the league right now is a white guy. When will they write an article that white RB’s have been discriminated against?
Tom Brady was a skinny kid and was selected with pick No. 199 in the sixth round of the 2000 NFL Draft....go figure.
Even Trent Dilfer won a Super Bowl. Think about that.
And how many of them not named Mahomes is any good and worth their contract? Lamar Jackson (yuk - not worth that contract)? Desean Watson (ugh - not worth his contract)? Russell Wilson - (really not worth the contract or the cache of picks Denver gave up for him) Justin Fields (putrid)? Kyler Murray (again not worth the contract, headache and lack of professionalism)? I'll leave out the rookies (and 1st year starters) and wait and see after a couple years. Hurts might be, but he sucked this week after getting his big contract. Gino Smith - one year does not a QB make.
