At this point they need to start drafting Mexicans into the NFL as QB's because they are 100% win rate for 2014

Newton sux rg3 sux geno sux vick sux kapernick sux manuel sux. So i guess just ignore the fact that they suck cuz its racist??? Really who gives a shitt. Anyone who cries racism in my eyes is the real racist. Maybe its a coincidence they all suck but lets not ignore the elephant in the room

Simply going by stats, Wilson has an 89.9 rating, 18th in the league, between Brian Hoyer (17th) and Ryan Tannehill (19th)

Wins is the key stat for a QB.  If a QB can hand the ball to Lynch repeteadly and get 7+ yards, he'd be a fool to throw the ball.

Eh, Russell Wilson is the whitest black dude I've ever seen. I wouldn't count him as a black qb.

The same reason why teams don't draft white RBs, different races excel at different things, that's why asias don't play football they are to smart to get their brains smashed in,

How come no one drafts black kickers or black tight ends or black centers and long snappers? Why do they mainly draft black wrs?

It's not a bad question by vandal. the likelihood of a pure black quarterback excelling at the qb position in the nfl is very low. I think it was about to go the other way until the nfl implemented all the rule changes, now to not have a drop back traditional pocket passer is almost idiotic. The rule changes dictate that a running quarterback is a liability, you can hardly touch the qb in the pocket, and you can't manhandle the wr's, so why on earth would you want a mobile qb right now??


     As gruden stated last night the chances that cam, rg3, russel wilson, kapernick etc. are playing into their 30s looks very unlikely. They are all putting their bodies in danger on a week to week basis, it only takes one bad hit when you're running around to end your career or severely derail it. Again, the current rules of flag football in the pocket basically mean that you have to be idiotic to not want a pocket passer right now.

?  I could've sworn Marshawn referred to his QB as "Blickety" not once but twice in the post game, local station, of course.  It's all good, being that M'Shawn said it...right?
