A few NFL topics.

Why do people think Russell is the next Warren Moon, or the black Peyton Manning. What similarities does he have to these 2 great QBs? NONE...well except race when compared to Moon. Russell has bad work ethic, he struggles in accuracy and reading zone coverage. He's huge, a staggering 6'6" 263 lbs. Defensive players are going to chop at the boy's knees! He's not the brightest star in the sky and he doesn't have the "great"(I can't say this with a straight face) Randy Moss to throw too. His WR core looks weaker than my Eagles core! His offensive line is going to have him on his back more than Madonna at the VMAs. Here's to the next (black) Ryan Leaf!

Brady Quinn is probably the most NFL ready QB from the draft, playing for Charlie Weis (who was under the tutelage of Bill belichik who, need I remind you has 3 rings with the Pats and I believe 1 with the Giants.) People think he can't win the big game, when in fact, look at his defense. He's no Peyton Manning, he can't carry a team on his own and make up for his defense's lackluster performance. He can only carry that team so far. The Browns got a HUGE steal at #22 with him. Not only do I think he has the POTENTIAL (capp'd for all you people who will burn me for this) Hall of Famer, he has a franchise tackle in Joe Thomas with whom he can grow with, and a superb WR in Braylon Edwards. Barring Edwards doesn't crack some skulls up in hurr!

Last, but not least, the stupidity award goes too...Jacksonville Jaguars! Who released Pro Bowl safety Donovan Darius today. Not only was he their #1 pick 10 years ago, he has played more games than any defensive player in jaguar history, and pretty steady and consistently. Accumulating 614 total tackles, 2 sacks, 14 INTs and 35 pass deflections. He was a well rounded player who could stop the run and cover the pass. Apparently, 3rd year pro Gerald Sensabaugh, will stpe in for the starting spot. All I can say is, WTF m8!

I dont think anyone said that Russel is the next Moon and certainly he is not the next Manning black or white. THey just said he had a big arm.

Re-read. I said who I have spoken to. Plus these sports 'experts' are so high on him I think they want to have his baby.

Sure he will struggle as he is a rookie and doesnt have a lot of talent around him. Neither team has a very good receiving corps. But I wouldnt say he's inaccurate he had a 67.8% completion percentage last year good for 6th in Div 1, Quinn was 29th at 61.9%.

Mark my words, Brady Quinn is going to be a bust in the NFL. It is all hype when it comes to him.

Black Peyton Manning? Black Ryan Leaf? Why the hell is going on here? After all these years, can we at least not just evaluate and discuss quarterbacks on a level playing field without "black" as though it were some type of derogatory, inferior adjective tagged to the player's name? Why can't this guy be compared to a WHITE!! quarterback? Why is every BLACK!! quarterback compared to Warren Moon? That first paragraph reeks of prejudice. Why? The guy has not even taken one snap in the NFL and is already dubbed the next (black) Ryan Leaf? Based on what? This reminds me of the same commentary garbage in the 80s about BLACK!! quarterbacks! and BLACK!! headcoaches!! Smarten up and realize it is 2007.

I don't think he's going to be the next warren moon...but i do see him as the next culpepper (not the failure one, but the pre-2000 daunte)...and probably more talented...he's a big bodied QB who can run (not terribly fast, but strong) and has a gun a la McNabb or Manning. Nothing to do with color, just his size and strength...his closest QB type is probably culpepper and if he proves to be more of a passer, mcnizzle...however, I think he's a little bigger

Thanks for adding some actual intelligent insight here. You see? Ju just proved that it IS POSSIBLE to discuss and compare quarterbacks without mentioning BLACK!!

Sorry, I live in the north and have no racism in me. nice try with the insults. Keep it up though I enjoy them. I only wrote what I keep hearing. So do me a favor. Think before you post. Anything i write usually is what I hear and I add tidbits. And yes, I said Boy. Is there a problem or are you looking for a reason to be a fucktard?

Think before I post? Are you kidding me? You throw around "black" this and "black" that and then bash my comment? You write like a goddamn KKK redneck from Alabama.

KNow the meaning of assume? And I don't mean the literal meaning from www.dictionary.com

I added the "black peyton manning" as a reference I keep hearing by everyone. The last black, if you notice, is in() and was meant as a joke. Don't get your panties in a bunch, I hear racism all day from black people dcalling me a crack or daigo. I don't do it. Keep trying tyrone

And I can give thumbs down as well! Look!

"Here's to the (black) Ryan Leaf" is directly from YOU and YOU alone. Yeah, big joke, har-har-har. Heard that one at the last Klan rally, huh? Poor little white kid being teased by black people is a pathetic excuse for bigotry. Give me break.

Lol you make me laugh at your stupidit. I assume you're black and took offense. Thanks for laughing at the joke. I found it funny as well.

Do tell me how those Klan rallies go. You seem to be the knowledgable one in this about the Klan. keep trying kid. You only make a bigger fool of yourself.

And on topic, since dipshit can't stay on it. I personally think Quinn will do better because he's smarter and more NFL ready. Russell is overhyped, if they got him some WRs, I may reconsidering him heading for bustville.

Oh and so I can appease th single-mindedness of Tyrone the moron, Quinn will do better cause he;'s white (sarcasm for any other idiot). :)

Oh make no mistake about Mr. Twisted Spawn of David Duke, I am VERY much on topic about your garbage concerning BLACK quarterbacks in the NFL. You've written off a kid that hasn't even attended training camp because of a "bad work ethic" (jesus fucking christ - he was drafted high, wasn't he or DO YOU KNOW that much more than NFL scouts?), too big (there is brilliant insight), and isn't "bright". Based on what? The Wunderlich? NFL scouting? Or a redneck prejudice AGAINST BLACK!! quarterbacks in favor of Brady Do Nothing Quinn? Fuck you. Kid? I'm in my 30s you prick. And you state NOTHING based on fact. This is the same BULLSHIT rhetoric spewed in the 70s and 80s. The more times change, the more things stay the same for some folk - especially out in moonshine country.

And WHITE!! Brady Quinn will have a worthless career in the NFL. He should send his resume over to Leaf as his assistant to coaching those quarterbacks.

They both suck. And their skin color or uniform color is irrelevant. They could play in a f*ckin' tutu for all I care.

Skin color should be a non-issue Kelsdad but this opinion piece is seemingly based on nothing more than a BLACK quarterback apparently inferior to a WHITE quarterback on a premise built upon nothing but STEREOTYPES. And as an African American, I am NOT supposed to take offense?

You're a typical oversensitive prick who still lives 200 years in the past. I'm done arguing with you moron. I feel my IQ drop eveytime I read a statement you post.
