My only question to you is do you not think there are questions about white qbs entering the draft as well about their inability to read defenses?
Sure. Does that rear its head as often as it does when the prospect is black? How many white collegiate QBs have you seen draft analysis saying they should consider playing another position? In my recollection, I have Scott Frost from Nebraska and another kid from Ga Tech who somebody made into a TE for a short time before he blew his knee out and was never the same (can’t remember his name). This was said about Hurts when he was coming out and Lamar. Two of the top 10 QBs in the NFL today and when they were coming out some teams and experts didn’t even consider them QBs. Oh shit…another white kid position switch came to mind….Tebow. That’s still 3 names over what the last 20-25 years?

Yea that lamar thing was wild about him switching positions. My beef with you is for the black qbs currently in the league, do we really hear they can't read a defense when they throw interceptions? Because i for damn sure dont

But you have to remember, slavery. Say that one word and you can be as stupid and racist as you want. You have to realize the world he lives in, it’s in some people’s interest to fan the flames.

It was the corner stone of all the Dak criticism last season and this off season. Check your X account and type in Dak Prescott and then zone in on stuff from 10/22- 9/23. It was presented a lot when it comes to his “inability to make good decisions based on what he’s seeing from the defense.” Meanwhile, like 4 or 5 of dudes picks actually came on tipped balls that should have been caught by an open receiver.

Just a little off topic.

If this was baseball that comment would have been high and outside of the strike zone.

LOL.

Since we are on the topic of INTs....quite a few of Carr's career INT's have been tipped.

That only happens because of an elite pass rush that is taught to attack the QBs throwing arm on the rush. Listen, I get it. The team you root for is a black hole of misery and failure. In order to cope, you need to diminish good teams in order to feel better about it.
I don't think you get it at all. I wouldn't call 6-3 a black hole of misery and failure in the toughest division without their starting QB for 4 of the games. But you do you.

Just offering the facts to you....Eagles had a really nice season last year but, yes, had an easy path to the SB. How many QBs did they force out of games with that pass rush?

GTFO of here. They aren’t even top two in their division let alone top of the heap in the AFC or the whole league. You’re delusional. “People talked” = one or two guys you can cite in a media that is inundated with click bait driven hot takes. Last night Perk called Maxey the best guard in the East. That’s not even close to being true. But someone said it. It doesn’t have value. You’re delusional if you ever thought this Cleveland team would contend for anything.
I mean, you said "no one" which by your own admission is false.

But it was guys I like on ESPN. were they right? Who knows...but hard to have dismissed when they were 6-3 and at time 1/2 game behind Bmore and had just beaten them in their house....4-1 with the guy still expected to be the QB (and no Chubb most of those games).

You want to dismiss them at full strength it's cool. It's what you do. Still upset my bet with God knocked out the Phillies?

Unfortunately for you, it’s not extra to characterize the Browns as a black hole of misery and failure.
Overall since the return (and even before)? Yep. But a regime that is 31-27 and currently 6-3 without their QB for 4 of the games?

Yep heard about this LOL
I trust the coaches and FO but seems like McCoy might be a better fit in this offense. But I guess hopefully we never see whoever it is because DTR is at least OK (which is all they need).

I think I'd prefer old, white Eddie Murphy at QB.

DTR was an unmitigated disaster against Baltimore and still had a better qbr than Walkers career rate.

Joe Flacco is well past prime but he's still better than PJ Walker.

Maybe it’s time to bail out when you can’t have this discussion without calling me stupid and racist. Kind of funny that the guy accusing others of race baiting is the guy calling other people racist.

I know what's going to happen

DTR balls out and gets cleveland into the playoffs. on the Thursday night before the game he gets hit by a bus. Browns lose 37 to 10 as PJ Walker throws 5 picks
