Texas Eagle Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 6 minutes ago, Swoop said: Wait, someone clarify: Mike has criticized Hurts, so he's obviously racist and hates black men. Mike has also said he wanted Justin Jefferson in the draft, forever ago. So he's only racist sometimes? Or you're grasping at straws? Racism only applies to the QB position to these clowns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, someone has to address the elephant in the room. If you don't think some people view black QBs through a lens, then you're in denial. I always love the argument of "Hey, if you identify elements of racial bias in our society, you're making racism worse. The only way to stop racism is to not talk about it!" What a cop-out. 48 minutes ago, Texas Eagle said: Racism only applies to the QB position to these clowns It does seem that people are uniquely unforgiving of black QBs over any other position. I mean, there's a rich history of this. Look at how they talked about Doug Williams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An MVP start ... If there was a vote today, who do you think gets it....maybe he gets 1 or 2.... But pretty sure it's unanimous to Jackson with Allen being second. You guys crown pretty hard for September and versus people who pick early often.... I gave the kid credit..hell even said he may end up being talked about top 8 QB end of the season, but you guys are really really going overboard at this moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swoop Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 I wanted Justin Jefferson, as an LSU fan. I think if you were to search "Jalen Reagor sucks" you'd probably find me saying it the most. Guess I'm racist. Guess Howie is too, for shipping him out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, we haven’t cheered our brains out for Randall, McNabb, or Vick. Garcia caught ish for being kinda ghey and "fiery”. Kolb was run out of town cause hesucked. Bradford too. I criticized Hurts on his play, but you and your ilk constantly resort to cries of racism. That’s the biggest reason I lash out, because it’s so annoying to have point out time and time again.

That’s the biggest reason I lash out, because it’s so annoying to have point out time and time again. Ironically, I have said that Hurts is probably a middle QB, that has limited passing skills/field vision and he's probably a playoff, one and done QB at best. I have also repeatedly said that I hope he proves me wrong and hope he becomes the best QB in franchise history. I didnt have him as a possible MVP vote getter week 3, so clearly that makes me racist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of the 3, Hurts is the only one still undefeated. It's an interesting question, but Hurts is certainly getting the attention. When it comes time to vote, they will have a much larger sample to go off of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EaglesRocker97 Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Well, guys, I'm completely open to an alternative interpretation of why everyone treated Opie like an infallible saint and repeatedly excused his shortcomings well into his precipitous decline but were ready to sell Hurts down river from the outset, nitpicked his games, and refused to give him credit where credit was due. So far, though, no one has even come close to providing a valid explanation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swoop Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 I also criticized Wentz, called him a choker and argued with a few people (Double the most on the old boards) about it repeatedly. So...times yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did get hurt in the very next game in 1991, but it was in the pocket. McNabb was close but he had the ankle in 2003 and missed 6 games. BTW, the last game before the Eagles drafted Hurts, they had to play Josh McCown in a playoff game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the old boards having a full on war about Wentz vs Foles. Talking about their weaknesses and shortfalls. Both white. Both had haters.
