Did the eagles just get another favorable call?
Absolutely! Runs like that from. 200 lbs back should give most guys pause… it SHOULD bode well for Shipley, for example.Hard to understate how big plays like that can slowly erode the Caste mindset and improve the psyche of young white athletes. When I was growing up, there were no CMCs. The idea of a white man being a runner was limited to power fullbacks. Have to wonder how many smaller guys switched positions or simply gave up the dream because of it. Having someone you can look up to look like that is huge.
Yes. Been noticing all game that they're getting great support from the officials.Did the eagles just get another favorable call?
They sure did!Did the eagles just get another favorable call?
Gotta be saving Brock until the second half. Waiting for his grip strength to return.
I don't think it'll happen overnight by any means, but sometimes it just takes a few guys to start changing the perception. Look at what Patriots like Welker and Edelman did to basically invent the "shifty white slot WR" archetype - guys like Cole Beasley and Hunter Renfrow may not have gotten a shot otherwise.Good point. Plays like that on a big stage will have a huge positive impact. Not necessarily on the system itself but on the young athletes watching. That's never a bad thing.

Wow, pretty ticky tacky calls for a playoff game where they usually let the players play.
That's what I've been thinking. Or alternate him with Deebo Samuel. . .Please just run the wildcat with CMC. He can throw better probably.
