RD3, Johnny Manziel, Dwayne Haskins, Cardale Jones, Colin Kaepernick, and other “athletic”, mobile QB’s haven’t panned out or are constantly getting injured to be long term NFL QB’s. These so called mobile QB’s will run first at the sign of trouble instead of making their read progressions. If this writer would take off his race colored glasses and actually study the NFL he would know that pocket passers last longer and are far more effective pro QB’s than their more athletic counterparts. Tom Brady, Drew Brees, Peyton Manning and Ben Roethlisberger were/are pocket passers who played into their forties!
I don’t think their failure rate is any different than the whites. My issue with any of them is when they get themselves into trouble for stupid stuff that sets the team back 4-5 years. Think Michael Vick, Steve McNair-not too smart. There’s also the Johnny Manzel’s and Ryan Leafs. Remember the Ohio State guy and the gambling? The racism thing might be the fear that a black given the reins to the organization will perform down to the level of what’s expected of him-on and off the field. Russell Wilson would be is an exception but like Obama he’s legally blonde. So what do you have? A while wuss writer giving his opinion of big dumb whitey. The answer is 3-5 years away so THEY can have fun with it.
Cardale Jones was a ‘mobile quarterback’?
