They are all career backup quarterbacks that white racists hoped would replace the black quarterbacks the Eagles have had for well over a decade.  

The best quarterback should get the job whether he is white or black.  But what we have seen in Philly is that there is a segment that prefers a white quarterback over a black NO MATTER HOW HORRIBLE THE WHITE QUARTERBACK IS!

LUCK VS.. RG3: RACIAL IMPLICATIONS



Robert Griffin III (RG3) wins the Heisman Trophy as the best athlete in college football, yet Andrew Luck is picked first in the draft!  Is this another case of the white quarterback being preferred over the Black QB?  

Listening to 97.5 FM in Philadelphia will reveal a strong bias towards Andrew Luck.  When someone makes the case that RG3 is better, the retort is something along the lines of "all the great quarterbacks like John Elway and Joe Montana were pocket quarterbacks."  What? So RG3 must be better than Elway and Montana in order to be better than Andrew Luck?? 

And what is this "pocket quarterback" vs. "running QB" controversy really about??  RG3 is a QB who clearly can do it all and cannot be labeled with the racial code word  "running QB."  "Running QB" is code for  "Inferior Black QB", with the implication that the prestigious position of QB really belongs to whites. 
 But RG3 is frequently called a "running QB" even though he looks to throw first and only runs when the play breaks down and he is able to turn a loss into a gain.  When a white QB runs it is called "extending the play" or "making a play with his legs."

One commentator on 97.5 said that he prefers Luck over RG3 because Cam Newton had a great rookie year and then did not have the same kind of year in his second season.  What??? What does Cam Newton's play have to with RG3 and Luck??  The answer: the commentator subconsciously lumps "Black QBs together.  If you've seen one "running/Black QB, you've seen them all" evidently.

Lets look at the statistics, shall we?
