Thrashen's done some great send-ups of the Seattle DWFs, generally agreed at CF to be the worst anywhere.

Sad to see the Lions get blown out. It came down to bad coaching, bad officiating and the inablility
of the Lions Receviers to catch passes. Unreal how many drops they had. I feel bad for Stafford.
As for Zenner, if he is smart he heads to New England or another team that will give him a better
chance to succeed. If he does stay, I hope they let him continue where he left off the last 3 games. It
is not the kids fault that they lost. He played good. Zenner is an upgrade over any other rb they have.

That drop on third down by Tate on the Lion's opening drive was classic Collinsworth. He blames the drop on "poor execution" with not a word about Tate dropping a very catchable pass.
As for all the drops in today's NFL, one theory I have is that back in my day kids used to just play catch with a football more than they do now. Out in the front yard, in the street, maybe a nearby park. Catching a football just became a more natural thing with all that practice.
Nowadays kids only catch footballs in organized settings like football practices. They don't get the benefit of all the reps previous generations gained in streets and front yards. That could be at least of one of the reasons (among others) for so many footballs bouncing off player's hands in today's NFL.

With AP now on the down slope of his career, MINN might be a good spot for him.

I'm still mad at MIN and what they did to Gerhart (drafting him in the 2nd round when they didn't need him or use him).....Plus, Zach Line was a beast and they let him lead block for Asiata and his 3 yards per carry......Comparing Asiata and Line's measurables and college stats makes you scratch your head......Uggghhh
Yeah, Zenner should not go home to Minnesota. Judging by how they've treated those White RBs in the past, they won't use him. Evidently there is too much collective white guilt in the Minnesota zeitgeist to feel comfortable using a White running back. The community up there gets a collective feeling of "we really shouldn't be doing this. Let's bring in a few thousand more Muslim migrants to Minneapolis to absolve us of our sin of having a white running back."

Is Zenner a FA? The Eagles could use him next year. Iwould love to see them get Zenner and Abbrederis...hell grab Janis as well. Does anyone have any info on Hartline? I am baffled as to how he is still unemployed at 29 and a great finish on an awful team last year.. Is there some other issue going on with him?
Zenner is under contract through next season.
The only issue with Hartline is that he has the wrong amount of melanin to continue to be an NFL wide receiver. It doesn't matter that he has had two 1,000 yard seasons and can obviously catch the football. Almost all teams in the league would rather have black receivers who can drop multiple passes in any one game and kill their teams' offensive possessions. Last nights' performance by Detroit's receivers being a case in point.
The DWFs will remember Paul Richardson's two one-handed catches last night a lot longer than they will remember all the critical drops in both games. Richardson struggles with the routine catches but since he made a couple nice plays he'll be hyped over the post-season as a potential rising star.
That's really all blacks have to do -- make some splash plays and all the inconsistency, drops and misplays are forgotten, whereas Whites have to always be on their game or else they're singled out for blame and shame. That's all it takes for the Crissies of the announcing world to gush on multiple occasions last night about Richardson, a second round bust who has 51 receptions in three seasons, "Did the Seahawks sign Odell Beckham?"

Yes Lew. As hard as it is to believe, that's what the coaches do. During my son's recruiting process from the high school combines to the college recruiting combines, I saw a lot of black WR's and RB's who literally had bricks for hands, but it didn't matter. They were coddled and the drops were overlooked. However, on a positive note, that may be why a handful of white WR's still break through the caste barrier, but it's still very difficult. Most of the WR's have to run in the 4.3/4.4 range to get a look and they better catch everything thrown to them!
Another poster, I believe, it was rocky blier said, it was head scratching comparing Zac Line's measureable's to Asiata's, (4.77 40). That's just it, A white RB or WR only gets a look if he really stands out. If a black RB runs a 4.6 a White RB has to run a 4.4 or less! For those who haven't seen me post this time and time again, At the high school level I saw black RB's get D-1 scholarships that rushed for 900 yards and ran 4.85, 40 times and 4.7 shuttle times and White RB's run for over 3,000 yards and run 4.5 40 and 4.1 shuttle and only get D-1 AA scholarships if they were lucky. I was also told by more than one D-1 college recruiter that they would not recruit a white RB!
The only other hope it seems right now for white players is to have some kind of coaching or family connection to a D-1 College or have a famous NFL player as their father. I've said it before and I'll say it again, the only reason we're getting to see McCaffrey do what he's doing is because of his Father. If someone here could do a search of the great white HS RB's in McCaffrey's HS class it would blow their mind! The class of 2014 was full of talented white HS RB's. Many of them had stats and measureables that were superior to McCaffrey's. McCaffrey's HS stats were good, but not mind boggling.

The Giants Janoris Jenkins already trash talking Jordy.......hopefully Jordy beats him like a rented mule today and shuts his black ass up.......
Miami "defense" playing at a pee wee level so far
Dolphins defenders obviously can't wait for the post-game party to begin. Saddest excuse for a defense I've seen in a playoff game, no guts, no pride, no shame. Alonso will undoubtedly be the center of the blame game as the sole paleface.

It reflects on their DC Joseph who is comically being considered as a HC. Ironically, Kiko the only non afleet on their defense is the only one showing any heart out there.

Dolphins showing some life. Moore is playing great and survived a vicious headshot earlier and is showing GREAT grit and ability in leading this comeback!!
**Spoke too soon, Steelers just sacked him and forced a fumble... Dolphins need to draft OL 1st rd. Utah's Bolles or Wisconsin's Ramzcyk.

Big Ben has only missed one pass so far and that was off the hands of another receiver with brick hands that ended up as a Dolphins interception.

I'm actually happy the Dolphins are getting their asses kicked. First off, all the idiots pining for Matt Moore over Tannehill (and don't get me wrong, Moore is a fine backup QB) will finally be brought down to earth. Tannehill is our QB, PERIOD. Secondly, this thrashing could result in some changes in player personnel. Remember, Adam Gase didn't put this team together. It was put together by Philbin and Jeff Ireland. The fact that Gase got something out of such mediocre players is pretty remarkable. I just hope that Gase isn't a caste whore like his predecessors (bringing in Kiko Alonso is a good start) and infuses the team with some more white talent (I have my doubts with Tannenbaum in charge though) We'll see how much power Gase really does wield in Miami.

I really dislike how there are so many Black offensive linemen. Granted, I'm sure Whites still comprise about 50% or more of total offensive line personnel, but it's grating to see that many Blacks because it's so painfully obvious that Blacks in general are not as good as Whites in playing on the line.
I've seen countless examples of White bouncers in bars throwing out obnoxious customers, many of whom are Black, fat, and appear like they're able to fight or use their weight to their advantage. But nope! Buff White dude throws his ass out, EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
Being a big, fat, Black "athlete" means a grand total of jack squat when it comes to competing. Just like absolute, straight line speed. White men are often just as big and fat, or straight-up fast, but Whites are better able to translate these things into actual ability.
Steelers kind of suck without Ben.

I always root for all teams to get whiter, but I think you nailed it when you mention Tannenbaum, I doubt he's capable of or even interested in change at this point in his Caste career.
Has Phil Simms uttered a single word of criticism about the Dolphins' embarrassingly bad defense? Simms and Collinsworth are great examples of the two basic tenets of Caste Broadcasting 101: Crissie constantly praises black athletes to ridiculous extremes, while Phyllis excels at minimizing or completely ignoring black incompetence and mistakes.

The Dolphins may lose but it won't be because of their white quarterback, Matt Moore. He's playing well.

Moore has made the mistake of throwing the ball into the hands of his black receivers causing them to drop the ball.
