I'm all for people being able to say what they wish, and I'm all for people being able to react as they see fit. They do. Everything anyone does carries repercutions. But not from us. We view their world. He will have to answer to the QBs he trashed.....and guess what? I'm sure that is what he wants. And yes. I would do nothing. Why? They mean nothing to me and I have a family to support. Trust me. From years of experience of deciding if we had to fight of diffuse a situation, it's a balancing act. But it's also something we deal with on smaller scales as well. Jalen is a loud mouth yes. But WHY do WE care? News flash. Life isn't easy or fair.

He took shots at a few qbs, but said postive things about the majority of qbs he discussed. What did I say wasn’t true? He took a shot at a lot of qbs and specifically said Matt Ryan was overrated.

The_Dude Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 No, it’s not the same. KB ripped a former teammate. That’s wrong. Also, Cam Newton may be a HoFer. KB will never sniff Canton. So I gave the comments lots of side eye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just tried to find a clip....but it's like it never happened on the internet now..... Someone else please remember that?

I'm all for people being able to say what they wish, and I'm all for people being able to react as they see fit. Yes. I would. And have. It's called being an adult. Words don't have any repercussions to mature individuals with balanced emotions. The term sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me was not just something we were told. It was the honest truth Let them talk loudly, but overcome them with your character. If we all reacted to what people say in such an emotionally unstable world this place be a lot more dangerous and ridiculous; downright unstable. There is too God damn much talking going on in this world today that the last thing we need is some virtue signalling individual to decide they are entitled to respond because "words hurt," as they say. Grow the !@#$ up if words hurt, because one day those words won't be as hard as the cold reality of this world when you're left to figure it out on your own.

That's garbage. He had both good and bad things to say about white QB's. 9 hours ago, LaDexter said: He race baited the whole Mayfield/Watson issue, implying that the NFL was racist for picking Mayfield #1 while Watson fell out of the top 10 .... (where did Gino Torretta go?) Jalen Ramsey is attacking ONLY WHITE QBs. He needs to be IDed as a bigot for doing so... He said good things about a lot of White QB's too. How do you explain that?

I think Ramsey is a moron but it is pretty clear that race didn't play a big part of his thinking in his comments. For instance, he said that Kirk Cousins and Drew Brees were good QB's. He had less than stellar things to say about Dak Prescott, basically calling him mediocre. So I'm confused why people are claiming this. Sure, he said good things about Tyrod and Wilson, but his comments on them are exactly in line with the national perception. Most people outside of Buffalo think Taylor is underrated (and they are wrong). Most people think Russell Wilson is a good QB. So I don't see a lot of racial bias in his statements. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won a heisman and national championship in the best college conference. Went 15-1 and to the SB, while winning MVP (with KB). If Allen comes close to that, I’d stain my ? and be very, very happy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like Cam. A lot. But his career arc is like Matt Ryan. Wilson too. Guys that I would take in a heart beat, but shouldn't go to Canton. We need a Brees, or Rodgers dare I say.... Brady guy. And they will be enshrined. Please don't take this as a slight against Cam. I have ALWAYS been a Cam fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have ALWAYS been a Cam fan. But honestly based on Allen’s college career, it seems like his ceiling might be a Joe Flacco type. Obviously things can change but guys like Newton and Ryan are probsbly in the top 5% of qbs. I would love to see Allen reach this level but based on evidence so far, it seems really unlikely.
