McNabb-"Black QBs get criticized more than White QBs"

[AtlCB]

I'll look into this and get back to you.

Can you check to see if Rex Grossman is black? I can't think of any QB who gets criticized as much as Grossman.

Dumb*** McNabb.

But this thread looks to be an interesting one. I will stay tuned.

You may wish to rethink that. I've got a got feeling your quarterback's gonna get thrown into this nonsense soon enough.

 

[Boyzmamacita]

Face it everybody, McNabb hasn't been the same since TO left him. That's the truth.

 

[Concord]

If you suck you suck...and you're going to get called on it by people...black or white.

God I'm so sick of this race card thing.

Congrats on last night. You guys looked pretty good on D and Campbell did enough to get the W for you.

Campbell still looks a little scary on some of the intermediate stuff, but if he continues to improve, he just might be able to take that team somewhere.

I do think the Eagles are definately on the downswing, but still a good win for you guys.

You better pray for no more injuries on the OL though.

Surprised this wasn't posted today-he said this in an interview with Bryant Gumbel.

McSoup should listen to last nights coverage...the excuses for his sorry play were non stop

Owens was the best wide receiver he has ever played with, but McNabb has gotten older and his recovery from injuries have also played a significant part in his decline.

You want to list some comparisons of unemployed black quarterbacks to that list?

well it's not that many black QB's in the league. I'm just pointing out the obvious, that's all. when you are black, expectations are HIGHER. When you are a white QB mobility is not a requirement only a bonus-lol Everyone knows that is the truth.

 

[Kilyin]

Yeah Campbell looked okay, except for missing Santana Moss on a long completion when there was nobody within 10 yards of him.

That's your opinion, not a fact. It's a pretty racist opinion, too.

 

[onetrickpony]

I think he mistook "black" for "crappy".

:laugh2:

As a member of the human race, so am I. Color don't mean a darn to me and it shouldn't to anyone. Those that it does, need an education.

Look, i'm a 76ers fan since i'm 7 and i've seen the way that city treats it's team's players. They boo'd Steve Carlton and Mike Schmidt. You ever see how they treat smokin Joe Fraiser? He's a GOD in Philly. Why? Cause he's a champion with heart. DM knows it's about choking and not race, but he choses to play that card anyway. I'll admit in some circles black QBs get a bad rap, but only guys that persevere and prove that rap wrong are worthy IMHO. Jackie Robinson didn't sit around crying about things.

Newsflash: If they're "unemployed", they're not IN the league.

I'm just pointing out the obvious, that's all. when you are black, expectations are HIGHER.

If you get to four NFC championship games, higher expectations will be placed on you. If you get to the Super Bowl, higher expectations will be placed on you. It's no different than what any other quarterback in McNabb's position would be faced with. Weak point in McNabb's case, which is what this thread is really about.

Are you Kartr?

Campbell doesn't have that type of ego.

Whether people are overly critical of him or not, he doesn't feed into it.

No that is not true it is about production it seems you’re the only with the stereo typing of QB's. Leftwich was not mobile and Jacksonville stuck with him for a good while before handing the job over to Garrard. Coaches are not going to put their job at risk over something as silly as color they are going to play guys who they feel will give them the best chance to win.

Nice goin' guy...

Irrelevant. One or two posters are trying to de-evolve the issue of ego to something it really isn't.

Thank you sir. He certainly makes some errant throws from time to time, but he is growing and making less mistakes than previously.

I really can't believe this is your honest opinion.

You don't think Eli Manning is held to a higher standard ?
Matt Leinart ?
Etc., I hope you are kidding.
