Texans - Bengals is on tonight. Not much to excited about - hopefully Vigil, Erickson, Eifert and Dalton have big games for the Bengals and the black quarterback fails for Houston.

Excuses are already being created for the black quarterback. Why wasn't Savage afforded that same arguement last week? Their offensive line was terrible. Their GM put that o-line together and O'Brien signed off on it yet Savage is the one who got pulled after a half. Give me a break. I hope Houston completely implodes this year. They have truly done a 180 and O'brien was someone I thought saw through alot of the BS has just become another run of the mill caste disciple.

From weenieworld:

Texans declared RG Jeff Allen, TE Ryan Griffin, TE Stephen Anderson, RB Alfred Blue, WR Will Fuller and WR Bruce Ellington inactive for Week 2 against the Bengals.

The Texans are stunningly injury ravaged for Deshaun Watson's first career NFL start. He'll go with an anonymous group at tight end, and be missing two starting offensive linemen. He's being set up to fail.

He's being set up to fail by the incompetence of the AA GM. Same story in Cleveland with Sashi Brown.

Wouldn't it be great if JJ Watt got tired of the losing franchise that is Houston and found a way to get traded to Green Bay? Bring him home to Wisconsin. I guess he isn't up for free agency anytime soon.

The fact that Savage got one stinking half of play behind an average Oline still irks me to no end. black quarterback to the rescue? Not!!
Caste system operation to the hilt.

There are two things interesting about what rotoworld said. Their bizarre use of the word "stunningly" is one thing. Also the comment that Watson is being "set up to fail."

This implies that there is an intentional plan for Watson to fail, presumably because of "racism." As if the Texans, run by a black GM, would want to make their number 1 pick fail. It's ridiculous.

Here's a potential bright spot, as Tyler Boyd was drafted in the third round last year:

Bengals WR Tyler Boyd is a healthy scratch for Week 2 against the Texans. The Bengals' official website expects John Ross, Brandon LaFell and Alex Erickson to rotate in the slot in Boyd's absence. The Cincinnati Enquirer's Paul Dehner opined on Twitter that "you have to wonder what is going on behind the scenes with Tyler Boyd and this coaching staff." Indeed. Boyd caught one pass on four targets/42 snaps in Week 1. Also inactive for the Bengals are RG Trey Hopkins, DE Michael Johnson (concussion), TE C.J. Uzomah, CB KeiVarae Russell, OG Alex Redmond and WR Josh Malone.

Nick Vigil had a tremendous game last week, his first as a starter - 10 tackles, 6 unassisted, an interception and one pass defended. Hopefully he'll shine again tonight on national television.

Just turned this game on to see Eifert and Erickson with back to back long receptions.

What did you racist cucks think of Deshaun Watson rushing for that 49 yard TD? Hahahahaha. Stop making white men look weak with your constant bitching and moaning about how we're treated in the NFL. Erickson is a perfect example of the caste system not being real.

Lol I'm not McCaffreyDude. I follow this site for entertaiment and all the wacky conspiracies you guys come up with about this caste system you've made up. Why can't you guys accept blacks are generally more athletic than whites? I'm a white dude saying this, it's not a big deal tbh. We dominate the best position in football which is QB, we got the Watt brothers, Bosa, Kuechly, best TEs, linemen, McCaffrey, Kupp, Harrison etc. You guys need to accept black people dominate skill positions cause of genetics.

Open your eyes son......There's a lot of truth to it....The quote where Bowden laughed about the possibility of recruiting a white running back is real with lots of coaches/recruiters....There have been multiple recruiters say they'd be laughed at/fired if they recruit a white running back....Jim Brown may be the best rb in history, but they're not all Jim Brown......Guys with Erikson's credentials would have been on everyone's radar.....Chris Hogan didn't get an offer.....Why was Kupp not in D1???....The kid from SDSU.....?????.....It's not hate from my perspective, it's awareness......

Blacks have dominated skill positions, I agree CC.....But if there are 4-500D1 running backs and only 25 are white, hmmmmm......I agree, Adrian Peterson, Walter Payton, Jim Brown are awesome, as many others are......But the NCAA hardly gave Gerhart a shot, Zenner was awesome and couldn't get a big time school to recruit him......A lot of guys are overlooked or moved to another position......Zach Line was a beast in college, but he couldn't get a shot running the ball in he NFL.....I look at this site as a place to root for white guys to succeed (without hating)......My analogy is like rooting for Roots to get an Oscar for blacks in the '70's.....They just wanted people like them to win in an underdog situation.......

There might be some people skeptical of a white man playing a skill position but ask yourself, is it completely irrational? I agree Kupp shouldn't have dropped out of the 2nd round but they always come up with that competition excuse, it's somewhat valid. Chris Hogan played more Lacrosse than football in college. As for white running backs, how many white guys have the tools to be a RB? Be completely honest, that's all I'm asking. I can think of four off the top of my head - McCaffrey, Burkhead, Woodhead, and Kyle Juszczyk. If you know of more tell me.

All I'm saying is you guys gotta be real with yourselves. You wanna talk about a caste system how about we talk about genetics? That's far more important to why the NFL looks the way it does than some coach saying "hmm, this white boy may not have what it takes to play receiver."

The 4 you mentioned off the top of your head (I'd have Zenner in there, KJ is a fullback) have gotten opportunities......Chris Hogan only played lacrosse because no one gave him a D1 scholarship....Zane Dudek from near Pittsburgh broke so many records and had all of the measurables but could not get big schools to recruit him.....Could he run for PSU??..He may not be Saquon, but the 2nd and 3rd string guy on the team aren't Saquon.....Stanford has Bryce Love, who is phenomenal, but their backups are not......I'm saying if there are 4-500 backs in D1 football there could easily be 3-4 times the amount of white running backs on a roster and given a chance......Scouts and coaches get wood over how guys look in their shorts.....But some have ridiculous athleticism but no hand/eye coordination....Welker did open doors.....Belichek may be he only coach to have given Edelman a shot.....Pittsburgh would have cut him, I guarantee.....There are tons of Edelman's out there....But they don't pass the eye test for lots of guys.....Announcers laugh sometimes how they saw guys like these in the elevator and thought they were a ball boy or school cheerleader or just some random fan......Not an elite athlete.......

Here's a conspiracy theory for you. Only one team in the copycat NFL uses white guys to carry the load on offense. That same team is the winning-est team of the century and the current league champions. All those other "superior" athletic teams should get them some white guys and maybe they too could be a champion. Imagine if other teams went out and got white guys that are passed over all the time like the Patriots did. What would the league look like then?

I'd let the troll stick around for our amusement, but his level of ignorance is way too high (this was his second appearance). He's a hard-core DWF who's never once thought to question anything he sees on TV or what the corporate media tells him to think.

Back to the game, Erickson is having a great game. 4 catches for 62 yards, a two-yard run, 77 yards on two kick-returns, and 48 yards on 3 punt returns. 189 total yards on his 10 touches.

Would be awesome if Erickson replaces Tyler Boyd as the third WR from here on out, he looked like a weapon out there on a team with a lifeless offense.

The headline at the top of NFL.com at this moment says "Deshaun dazzles in debut". For Pete's sake, he threw 24 times and averaged less than 5 yds per pass! He almost had a few balls intercepted in the beginning. And the headline not only lies saying he "dazzels" but they affectionately call him by his first name, in his first freaking start no less, ala Michael Jordan.

You cannot make this stuff up. Truly Orwellian to the max. Will even trolls wake up to the agenda?! Lol!
