Football Vic Fangio goes full retard - Page 4

Good job saying the absolute worst thing a HC in the NFL can say on a day like this. Optics here are horrific. Broncos PR is already feeling the heat :-)

Vic Fangio: "We're a league of meritocracy. You get what you earn I don't see racism at all in the NFL. I don't see discrimination in the NFL."

Saying this, especially today, is really really REALLY ****ing stupid. The players won’t be forgetting this either.

There should be a roony rule for players..we’ll call it the Wes Welker rule. Wonder how that would go over..

There’s never an awful time to try to encourage the reduction of the constantly growing victim mentality.

This guy is getting lit up for this but I agree with him. The best players play, the best coaches coach. Get over it

It's possible that Eric B is a bad interview.

Again, not true 100% of the time. It's color blind. Thats some serious progress. The best players don't always play.

The NFL is no different from your standard office environment. The boss has their favorites. Employees viewed as "team" players play above others based on contract, money or relationship to the boss or the team/company. People move on because they feel/have been mistreated, underpaid etc.

The American military since it was forced to racially integrate has embraced the concept of meritocracy. It is the closest to a meritocracy that's ever existed and its not a true meritocracy.

So what's the endgame for the NFL? How many black coaches and black upper management members are required? Is there a target number?

Bieniemy leads an offense to historical records and a Super Bowl. One of the best resumes an emerging OC can have.

Nope gotta hire this 37 year old QB coach who failed as OC before after 1 year and had to go back to college. But he gave Sean McVay handjobs in LA!

Great hire Bengals. Look where that got you
[Reply]

Why do people assume Bienemy wanted the jobs he interviewed for or that he didn’t decide he wanted another year of learning under Reid?
