Matt Rhule giving off incredible Chip Kelly after 2014 vibes. Very excited to bet the Panthers under in 2022.

No, it provides minorities a chance to be interviewed, as we saw with Sirianni, get your foot in the door and anything can happen.

Without the rule, people not in the inner circle wouldn't even get the chance to impress, they'd just be ignored.

In another generation, when the "football guys" who come out of the old guard with their implicit racist assumptions (black QBs can't make it in the NFL, etc.) are dead and buried, this will be a moot point.

Projection much?

We have a combine designed to put players on a level playing-field. We also have historical playing stats to compare players.

It's significantly harder to do this with coaches, managers, etc.

Because they are entirely different skill sets

i dont care how many reps at 225 a coach can do…or arm length…

winning is all that matters. And people will imitate and poach those that win

That’s it really how likenesses and likeness value works… Leo DiCaprio is paid in room and board and travel when he makes a movie but i doubt he’d be thrilled if he didn’t get a piece of the studio take on his blockbusters. 

Those are the superstars, to be fair the 3rd string ______ isn’t playing in the NFL but is getting a free education.

Meh. We hear that same song and dance from him or his mom every year. The first year he was so hurt he couldnt pull his pants down to go pee but he played through it. Last year was a calf. Now this. But he somehow is almost always healthy enough to not show up on the injury report with these things. 

And he’s managed to suck through it all, imagine that?

 To be fair, I hadn't spent much time in here this past week. Not much to talk about.   The draft is too far away.

No, the rule wastes everyone's time including the person being interviewed. They want the best candidate, they don't care what color he/she is. To say  otherwise in today's NFL is ridiculous.

The rule itself is racist quite honestly.

The "best candidate" is highly subjective, and it's well known that your network determines your job opportunities, in and out of football. People hire those who they know and/or feel comfortable with, so if the people hiring are white, with a network of white football guys with whom they've socialized for decades, they're going to hire out of that group.

There are numerous studies showing that if a "black name" is on a resume, even though the resume is identical to that submitted with a white name, that applicant is far less likely to be interviewed for a job. Implicit racism is still widespread, especially when combined with "signals" that also denote class.

So combine the "good ole boy" networks with implicit racism, and minority candidates have large hurdles to overcome.

Not the worst!

Better question is why are other posters keeping tabs on suspended posters and reasons for those suspensions?

Seems like some highschool drama BS.

Yeah, just logged in to my ESPN+ ( for this first time since I can remember, what a worthless subscription, only have it because of the Hulu/Disney+ bundle ) and saw that.  I figured his career would have put him ahead of Jimmy G and McCorkle.

If it happens, that'd be one for 2022 draft and one for 2023 IIRC?

I know she ain't the best looking gal out there, but calling her a 3 is pretty harsh.
