Why are there no white runningbacks in the NFL..?

White Running Back: Nick Goings

White football players just aren't fast enough... and the ones that are, aren't tough enough.

Just like black quarterbacks aren't smart enough to make quick decisions, at least not quick/smart decisions, which ends up resulting in piss poor NFL quarterbacks.

Example: Steve Mcnair during the superbowl. He felt pressured, and instead of throwing the ball into the endzone, he didn't process the info as fast as, let's say, a Kurt Warner, so he scrambled, and made a quick decision, by throwing the ball 5 yards short, forcing his WR to try making up for his mistake against one of the faster defenses that season. If roles had been reversed, Kurt Warner would have thrown the ball into the endzone. Perhaps it would have been dropped or picked, but Warner would have put his team into better position to tie that game. Why? Because what Warner lacks in athletism, he makes up for with football intelligence.

None of us actually want a black quarterback leading our team. It's not because we're racist, it's because black quarterbacks are some of the most ignorant athletes in sports. I repeat, black QUARTERBACKS. Am I saying black people are stupid in general? Not at all. I know many intelligent black people. I also know a few intelligent black athletes, just not intelligent enough to play the quarterback position.

That's life.

The last great white RB was Tiki Barber.

So much racism in this thread, it's ridiculous.

As for Donovan Mcnabb. Isn't he the poster child for dumbass black quarterbacks in clutch situations?

 

[Nukleopatra]

too add...i rather have a white quarterback over a black quarterback anyday

See? Honesty.

Rush Limbaugh was fired for his honesty.. But most of us probably found ourselves agreeing with the fat bastard. I've been a Rams fan all my life, and I mean I fucking loved that football team, but as soon as Tony Banks took over as starter, I refused to watch. I actually did not watch any NFL games until Tony Banks was off the Rams. I cannot tell you a single score, or superbowl winner from those seasons.

Now, I'm curious, does that make me racist?

If so, how can I be racist? I love Marshall Faulk. I love Torry Holt. I have african american friends. But, I do not, in any case, ever want an african american quarterback starting for my favorite team.

I don't buy that argument - look at the tanks of 70's and early 80's - Riggins (who, for all those who think white guys can't run fast in a straight line, had 4.4 speed at the beginning of his career), Bleier, Csonka etc. They were all very tough and durable. Heck, Rocky Bleier over came a serious leg wound suffered in Vietnam to become a NFL player.

I think the league was different back then. More white guys on defense. Even then, most of the RBs were black. Bleier wasn't a feature-back, Csonka shared carries with Kiick and Morris, and the entire middle portion of Riggins career he was sharing carries. I think after 1984 the league started to become more black, so that by the end of the 1980's almost all the elite defensive players were black. Just my take.

by posting mcnabb, i was meaning that the majority of the teams in the nfl would prefer to have mcnabb as their qb than their current one.

I never said NFL teams aren't interested in black quarterbacks, at least I don't think I did, because they are. I'm talking about NFL fans. Just look at Jason Campbell, Vince Young, Josh Freeman, Jamarcus Russell. One guy hasn't even played yet, but we all know he's going to fail miserably. Even Tampa fans didn't want the guy..... Why? Because he's black, and he's going to set the franchise back even longer. It's not because of his lack of arm, it's because he won't process info quick enough in the NFL, in pressure situations.

If Tampa had taken Stafford, it would have been a different story.

LOL @ you guys taking Nukle serious.

So you're saying this cat is just "bringing the lulz"?

Warren Moon was a awesome black QB, Id take him any day. Giants used to have Sean Bennett at HB who looked like the real deal but got hurt similar to Sehorn

Warren Moon finished his career barely over .500, with a 58% completion %, and a quarterback rating of like - 80. Warren Moon didn't even come close to cracking the .500 mark until his 4th season, I believe, where he still sucked. He didn't really impress me until his 7th season, which was followed up by an 11-5 record, which was great, but he barely finished with more TDs than interceptions.

He is a hall of famer, though.. But I mean, they had to throw some black guy in there at the QB position.... Why not Warren Moon?

lol I love Nuk.

lol at u white guys tryin to make a weak ignorant ass statement and try to back it up. i think doug williams, warren moon, mcnabb, yes steve mcnair, and randall cunninghamm. are better and faster thinkers than most qbs to play in the nfl. just cause ur white doesnt mean u process information and react any faster than a black guy. look at brett favre(nfl's interception record holder). do u kno how many shitty white qbs have come and gone through the nfl? if black qbs got as many opportunities as white qbs get im sure their would be a more even balance of both at the position in the nfl. and saying that ur not benig racist is bullshit. ur blatantly sayin that black qbs r dumb asses because their black so fuck u

Black QBs (and Tony Romo) are dumbasses because they try to "use their athleticisim" and "extend the play" rather than just fucking drop back and pass.

Doug Williams isn't a faster thinker than my dog. Randall Cunningham, Warren Moon, and Steve McNair are all in the same category, guys who had a couple good seasons with way too many average or below average seasons thrown in between. Donovan McNabb is about the best quarterback on that list if you take away injuries, but he's injury prone and he hasn't accomplished anything yet.

It's not racist. To say that what we're saying is racist is plain ignorance on your part. We're not saying all black people are dumb or slow thinkers, we are saying that the black quarterbacks who make it to the NFL are generally worse than the white quarterbacks because they don't have as high of a football IQ. Show me where I'm being racist. I'm not saying that there isn't a black QB who could come along and be the smartest and best QB in NFL history, I'm saying so far and right now, the black quarterbacks who have been/are in the NFL have been average or worse, and when you analyze everything (their arm stength, throwing accuracy, etc) they have all the physical abilities of a white quarterback, but they lack the football knowledge.

lol @ black quarterbacks don't get enough chances. Show me where the prodigy black quarterback kid doesn't get his chance. Please do. Donovan McNabb has had too many chances according to a lot of football fans. Tony Banks had chances he should have never got. Aaron Brooks got more chances than his garbage ass deserved. Black quarterbacks have gotten plenty of chances, they just generally suck.

I would also like to point out that in a statement where you call other people racist, you label everyone against your opinion as "you white guys". How do you know that everyone who opposes what you think is white? Maybe I'm black. Maybe Davie's black. Maybe Nuk is black. You racist son of a bitch!

 

[ThunderHorse]

Wow,

I guess this is one of those threads where I get to realize 3 or more people are fucking idiots in disguise.

what a disgusting piece of garbage to even begin debating about.

You can't be serious . You can't .

Lets look a a list of high profile black qbs

McNabb - Pick 2 - Nobody is picking a qb at pick 2 in the draft and not giving him a chance . Hell he even got extra chances at times in Philly

Vick - Pick 1 - Once again , nobody is going to pick a qb at one without giving him a bucketload of chances .He was even taken infont of LT , yes I mean the HOF runningback LT . (I know it sounds stupid now)

McNair - Pick 3 - Once again , nobody is taking a qb at 3 and not giving him every opportunity in the world to succeed .

Vince Young - Pick 3 - I am sure he is recent enough for you to remember .

JaMarcus Russell - Pick 1 - Well , the fact that they haven't lost the faith in him already speaks volumes .

Randall Cunningham - Pick 37 (I think) - The eagles already had a pro bowl quarterback in the team at this point , had intrest from various other teams in the draft . Was given a shot a succedding Jaws when he retired

Josh Freeman - Pick 17 - Drafted to be the Bucs next franchise qb

I could go on but I am sure you get my point by now . When a black qb has remarkble success in college he is drafted high if they think he can suit the pro game . If anything black qbs can be even more highly thought after because of their "raw talents" . They have as good of an arm as white qbs (even better sometimes) . While also having ability to make plays with their legs . Something alot of NFL teams go weak at the knees for .

As for the whole proccessing info thing , I don't really have a standpoint on that ..... but to say Black qbs don't get a chance while white ones do is laughble.
