I more meant how is it the few whites that are db's tend to dominate the position? as in is there any genetic reason? or is it just they train harder?

In a nutshell, they have to be twice as good to get an opportunity, so the ones that do overcome the many obstacles they face tend to be really good.

Because they have to be really good just to be considered for the position in the first place, meanwhile it's common for mediocre blacks to "earn" a starting safety position because running fast in underwear and upside

Even in college football? Because whites dominated in tackles this 2024 college football season and It was more than just a few whites there, so I don't believe its just that, maybe its just better hand-eye coordination from whites that allow them to react faster?

Pretty much the same situation, it's difficult for talented Whites to get scholarships or playing time at the big college programs, so the ones that do play tend to be elite rather than the huge amount of Blacks who get scholarships and endless opportunities. And yes, I believe Whites have better hand-eye coordination, something we've been maintaining from the beginning of CF. Whites have a number of advantages and no disadvantages when it comes to athleticism other than not being able to run quite as fast in a straight line.

It is similar at other positions as well. If FairPlay were in order, rosters would be littered with elite whites and blacks and backups would be dominated by white players, given the small population % blacks account for. Essentially, we should be seeing an inverse of current roster racial makeups.

Agreed

That's close to the makeup of the NFL in the 1960s and into the 1970s. It was only later that the unwritten ironclad rules of the NFL fully took hold and were cemented in place by the mid-'80s. Since then it's hardly changed except for the slow increase of Blacks at the o-line positions and quarterback and more defenses becoming coal black along with an increase in White TEs.
 
Looks like we get the exciting whites in the SB. Geodartt will be good to watch on offense. If Gainwells injury keeps him out of the SB we might see some Shipley touches.
 
The Eagles will be a formidable opponent in the Super Bowl. They dominated the NFC in '22, started off again that way last year before falling apart the second half, then drafting well and signing Barkley and bouncing back in a big way this year.

DeJean and Blankenship being on the big stage can only help. The hype for Daniels if the Commanders had won would have set new world records so I'm happy with this result.

Edit: Shipley!!!
