    Just imagine if Jay Cutler or Eli Manning was black....h*ll even Tony Romo before the 2014 season.

    ? are you talking about b Romo, had ill timed mistakes. he was never trash stop it. Struggling/trash and overextended opportunity are not one in the same

    The Cowboys recent struggles should stop all the "romo" sucks debate, the question is can he win playoff games. As a giants fan I can honestly say Romo is a top 10 QB, maybe near Top 5. Dude can read defenses n has crazy pocket awareness.

    I would have liked to see Geno with the Jets this year. .

    Geno ain't got it bro. Poor pocket awareness and accuracy issues are a toxic combo. Whoever said that ? about high school n colleges relying on the running ability of QB'S n stunting their growth is on point. I actually had that convo w my boy the other day. Non running QB'S are forced to learn how to study defenses, anticipation and pocket awareness which are vital skills to have BEFORE you get to the nfl, that way they can improve them instead of learning them on top of all the other ? they need to learn like playbooks, terminology and life as an adult on his own with a bunch of money n fame in some cases.

    Someone please name me an elite black throwing quarterback that didnt have to rely
    on the run alot..........

    That gets into part of the problem too. A lot of Black QBs never have their game developed. High school and college coaches are happy to rely on their running ability because it works so well on those levels. By the time the QB gets to the NFL, he's so behind the class as far as throwing mechanics and reading defenses that it's hard for them to survive. That was the problem with Vick and his contemporaries. The newer QBs like Cam and Russell that are better, but you still have Capernick who falls into that pattern.

    A lot of truth here. By the way.



    What's the deal on this guy? I see this commercial a lot.

    this ? is true

    but RG3 isn't a really good example

    stats without context are misleading, especially when u have a poor management team like the Redskins

    they made so many mistakes with RG3 that it was more about his health and lack of development, than just pure benching in favor of Cousins
