If that doesn't ring some bells on a racial level, I don't know what to tell you. Oh, I didn’t know that one person summed up an entire fan base. I’m going to let this conversation sail off into the distance, but it is absolutely bull**** when applying to an entire fan base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just thought it was ironic that you were complaining about calls of racism when a few posts above you, someone appeared to go there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't remember who it was, but a well-known ES member called Malcomb (lol) Kelly a "thug" when he didn't attend voluntary workouts his rookie season. Turned out Kelly was doing charity work in Africa and had an excused absence. My point? I have a good memory lol...but seriously, the point was that it's easy to jump to stereotypes when there isn't enough info, especially on the interwebs which gives a false sense of importance to our opinions. I personally try to avoid doing it as I'm comfortable telling myself I don't know nearly enough to make declarative statements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also...what was b)? lol... Agreed but folks with the Ron rose colored glasses don’t see the waffling in his decision making and the overall lack luster team management as a problem. He has total control and this is all on him. We are rebuilding. No wait I mean we can win the division. I wanted us to be 2-2 yet I don’t use my timeouts to extend games and try to win. I want to protect my players yet I leave A rusty Alex Smith to the wolves whilst my starting, mobile QB is cleared to play. It egregious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do believe some of Rivera's comments were not smart ones to make...and he keeps making them lol. His decision making may still be good, though, but his explanations need a helluva lot of work. He should just Belichick the **** out of his answers from now on ("Yes"..."No"..."Maybe"). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skinsinparadise Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 27 minutes ago, Thinking Skins said: But the other thing is that many Black QBs don't get a second chance. You don't see the Chase Daniel type who can be on 5 teams not take a snap but be paid 5 million a year. Most of the Black QBs are there because they got drafted, got benched or signed a cheap deal to compete and won out. That's why i like that Haskins is so close to Cam Newton, Dak Prescott, Kyler Murray, Deshaun Watson, etc. Because hopefully they can help him through the way this crappy franchise has treated him. But this is going to get political if I reply. Just know, this **** ain't easy. We see what's happening. We hear the BS explanations, and can only shake our heads. And i know I'm talking pretty much to only those who already agree with me because others are dicing this up looking for a smart reply. But it is what it is. Using a race argument to put your argument on some artificial high horse is both wild and ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Llevron Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Yall are also playing this game like 6-10 cant win this division and we wont be playing the cowboys twice, the giants twice and the eagles one more time. We can be rebuilding, still try and win, and Haskins not be the guy. All of that is not only possible but is reasonable. If you have a coach that looks up at week 4 and the entire division is 1-3 and he doesnt think he can win it, then he shouldnt be the coach lol Yall are playing with real funny money right now. Its dumb to act like you know exactly whats happening and other people are blind when no one on this board legitimately knows anything. For all we know, Ron was begged by Snyder to give Haskins a legit shot. And he gave him one by not picking up a vet that would immediately start over him, and saw the kid didnt have what he wanted and went with Allen cause he could see the division sucked. And it would be totally on brand. Point is none of you know wtf you are talking about except for me stop arguing and LOVE EACH OTHER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not just about Herbert. Chargers are down 3 OL starters, starting RB and starting a rookie QB. Yet they are competitive in every game and you can argue could have won more games. But on here those are used as excuses for how the team and the QB perform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of rookie QB's start out hot. Defenses will figure out his strengths and weaknesses VERY soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't matter how they start. What matters is the sample size. Maybe Herbert has a chart that resembles a bear market. Growth is something that cannot be figured out in 4 games. You need a bigger sample size. If Haskins looks the same after playing 16 games in the same system, you draft another QB. There needs to be a system to judge a QB. Edit: Come to think of it, 16 games isn't enough. I think 32 would be better. So 2 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We look like a JV team out there being managed by Wringley Bro’s Barnum and Bailey. The team has regressed since last year which is hard to fathom coming from Gruden, Manusky, and the ole online coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
