Highest paid....Russell Wilson

Number one draft pick...Kyler Murray
Leading Heisman candidate....Jalen Hurts
That ability to escape the pocket, extend plays, plant that...run? pass?...seed, is where things are heading. No backer ever has to worry about Eli, Rivers, Brady, Dalton, running the football. That can't be said about those mentioned above.
Lamar Jackson is what we see at Arizona(faster than Jackson), Oklahoma, Ohio State, and all over college/HS football nowadays, that mobile QB, a guy who can scoot 30 yards, extend plays.
The first black QB's were Willie Thrower, Marlon "Magician" Briscoe, James Harris, "Jefferson Street" Joe Gillum. (can't really count Fritz Pollard) but none of them made any impact.
It started with Doug Williams, Warren Moon and Randall Cunningham, they proved that yes blacks can play NFL QB.
Today there are more black starting QB's than ever before.
Can't ignore....
DeShaun Watson
Kordell Steward
Daunte Culpepper
Jeff Blake
Rodney Peete
Vince Young
Colin Kaepernick
Lamar Jackson
Jacoby Bissett
Teddy Bridgewater
Tyrod Taylor
Andre Ware
Vince Evans
Akili Smith
Geno Smith [Reply]
A changeling has only 5 hit points, making it the lowest hp unit in the game. It can be killed by any unit in the game, including workers with a single hit. [Reply]

What is it you hope to accomplish by writing a post like this, Ubeja? It's not a simple statement pointing out a simple fact...because all your posts are like this!
It's like you WANT a negative reaction to what you write but can't handle it when people give you that negative reaction!
If white people pointed out every achievement a white person made in the manner you point out the achievements of black people...your feeling of superiority would soon yield to insecurity!
Take your race-baiting crap to another board... [Reply]

We are witnessing a dramatic change at the QB position right now and it is thread worthy.
We have at least a dozen of these kinds of threads out there talking about blacks/African Americans, I looked for that before saying anything about race. I saw it was excepted here, because it is. So what is the problem?
