NONSENSE ("The 7 Worst QBs Set to Start in 2014")

I haven't been around much because there hasn't been any football news to talk about, but I stumbled across this and I had to complain about it somewhere!

How in tarnation can you make a list of the 7 worst quarterbacks for 2014 and manage to make it all white dudes? With LIES and political correctness!

EDIT: I'm just gonna post the article, so you don't have to give that article any additional clicks. Author is some guy named Matt Reevy.

See that guy up there? That’s Drew Brees, quarterback for the New Orleans Saints. He’s a great quarterback. Brees is the hand at the helm of one of the most potent offenses in the NFL, a distinction he shares with top tier peers like Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady, and Peyton Manning. A great quarterback can be the foundation for two decades of contention toward the NFL’s biggest prize — a Super Bowl Victory — and, for the completists, the four QBs have six Super Bowl rings between them (although three belong to Brady.)
This list is not about those guys. We’re also not including the competent quarterbacks like Colin Kaepernick or Russell Wilson, guys who have great games sometimes, forgettable matches on occasion, and are rarely, if ever, called bad. Matt Stafford gets a pass too by the sheer virtue of his rocket arm and his consistent ability to, uh, throw bombs to Megatron. Even when everyone knows that all he’s going to do is throw bombs to Megatron.
No, this list is about the players who occupy one of the worst kinds of athletic hell — the NFL starter who’s good enough to get to the league, but doesn’t seem to have it in him to make his way into the uppermost echelons of the highest level of professional football. Lest you make the mistake, though, of assuming these guys are scrubs, remember that they were good enough to be starters. That’s something that a whole host of armchair analysts can’t say. Disclosures done, lets pour out a cold glass of Haterade and get to it. The seven worst starting QBs in the NFL. All in depth info courtesy of OurLads.com

7. Matt Schaub, Oakland Raiders

Matt Schaub, pictured above (right) during his tenure with the Houston Texans, went through one of the most depressing regressions ever last season, but we’ll get to that in a second. Schaub, who was drafted in the third round with the 90th pick in 2004 by the Atlanta Falcons, spent three seasons in the ATL before heading to the Houston Texans where he was a game manager in the classic mold, being counted on to deliver accurate passes to Andre Johnson and handing it off to Arian Foster. Schaub also holds every passing record in Texans history, which is less impressive when you consider that the Texans were inducted into the NFL as an expansion team in 2002.
Anyway, Schaub competently guided the team to a 12-4 record and a playoff appearance in 2012, and spirits were high heading into the 2013 season. Spirits were still high early on when the Texans started with back-to-back wins. They proceeded to lose every single game after that, as Schaub put together one of the worst single season slides during his 10 games with the team last year. He signed with Oakland in the offseason, so we’ll see if this was a fluke or if the Monstars really did steal his mojo.
6. Carson Palmer, Arizona Cardinals

Unlike Schaub, sports fans can pinpoint exactly when Carson Palmer lost it — it was during the 2005 Wild Card game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Palmer, who had his career eulogized brilliantly in a 2013 piece by Bill Barnwell, never came back the same from that injury, and remains one of the great what if stories of the modern day NFL. Now he’s wasting away on a Cardinals squad that still doesn’t have a passable offensive line, and the world is worse for it.

5. Alex Smith, Kansas City

No one seems to know exactly how good Alex Smith is. After a series of largely forgettable seasons to kick off his tenure with the San Francisco 49ers, Smith was the starting QB for a full season with a Niners squad that went 13-3-0 before being supplanted by Colin Kaepernick and shipping off to Kansas City. While the Chiefs went 11-4 with Smith under center, the 30-year-old remains an enigma, as the Chiefs failed to make a significant mark on the postseason. There’s also the matter of Jamaal Charles, who came back from an injury shortened 2012 to deliver a knockout 2013 campaign. The reason he’s so high on this list? After eight seasons, no one knows if he’s any good. That’s fairly damning in and of itself, especially for a number one overall pick.
Update: this post originally stated that the Chiefs missed the playoffs in 2013. In actuality, they lost to the Indianapolis Colts. It has been corrected to reflect that change.
4. Josh McCown, Tampa Bay

Josh McCown lives in essentially the same space as Alex Smith, only with four more years worth of miles on his body and less to show for it. Over 11 seasons, Jay EmCee started more than half his team’s games exactly twice, helping the 2004 Cardinals to a 6-10 record and the 2007 Raiders reach a lofty 4-12. That’s not exactly the legacy that dreams are made of.
It’s got to be said, though, that there’s a lot more that goes into a team and its success than the play of its quarterback. McCown could be very capable of leading the Bucs to the 2015 Super Bowl, only to be handicapped by systemic problems that are vast and beyond his control. Somehow, we doubt it.

3. Chad Henne, Jacksonville Jaguars

The nicest thing you can say about Chad Henne is that at least he’s not Blaine Gabbert — who absolutely would’ve made the number one spot if he was still starting, but alas, he’s behind Kaep in the Bay Area this year. So, celebrate Jags fans, this is undoubtedly a capital G capital T Good Thing. The sobering reality, though, is that your team (who have needed a quarterback since, uh, forever?) are still stuck with Chad Henne, who spent four unessential years in Miami before shifting Florida locales in 2012, has only been at the helm of one personal winning season — ever — and that was just above it, going 7-6 over 13 games with the Dolphins back in 2009.
2. Matt Cassel, Minnesota Vikings

Similarly to Jacksonville, Minnesota fans (including Prince) have had to suffer through years of wasted Adrian Peterson watching a series of underperforming quarterbacks traipse in and out of their locker room to no avail. What separates Minny from Jacksonville, though, is that they’ve got Adrian Peterson and playoff aspirations, and while MJD was a great running back, he’s no All Day. In that regard, then, Cassel — who had his best years in New England and Kansas City going 10-5 with both teams — is an even worse eventuality than Henne, or anyone else listed here so far. The Vikings have said that Cassel, Christian Ponder, and newly drafted Teddy Bridgewater will battle for the starting spot, and that’s just depressing when we look at the phenomenon they’re squandering:

1. Ryan Fitzpatrick, Houston Texans

Ryan Fitzpatrick is, by all accounts, a pretty good guy. At least according to former teammate C.J. Spiller, but boy is he not so awesome at football. After seven seasons, FitzMagic has yet to be at the helm for a winning run, and the most famous things about him remain his alma mater (surely you’ve heard) and his $100 million dollar contract extension from Buffalo. That is not nifty. Not in the slightest.
Furthermore, he’s the starting quarterback for the Texans, which means that Houston’s assumption that last year was a hiccup (a hiccup that landed them an incredible defensive prospect, which is a scary thought) and their attempts to right the ship back to playoff land include having Ryan Fitzpatrick at the helm. Think about that for a minute — a team trying to reverse one of the most dramatic falloffs in league history is handing the keys of the offense to FitzMagic (explanation in the video below.) Ryan Fitzpatrick is the QB everyone falls for at least once during their fantasy football season, when the stars align and Mercury is in retrograde and he throws for 500 yards and 5 touchdowns in one game before spending the rest of the season trying to match that score in combined outings. Viva FitzMagic.

EJ Manuel, Mike Vick/Geno Smith are notably absent.. This list is garbage and the person who wrote this is garbage!

"EJ Manuel, Mike Vick/Geno Smith are notably absent..."

^

That's because the tutu-wearing ****** who wrote the article is going to include one or more of them in the "Top 7 NFL quarterbacks" list, which might have a 4 White, 3 Black ratio, but I wouldn't be a BIT surprised if it was 4 Black, 3 White, or even with just one token White guy.

It's the liberal code that ANY critical piece that involves bad behavior, or something negative has to be heavily or ALL White to be "acceptable."

For example, a piece on racial violence or rape will always, ALWAYS troll around for instances of White behavior in this regard, ignoring the MASSIVE case list of examples of minority behavior in these crimes.

Meanwhile, when talking about "top students" or "top athletes" the obvious superiority of White, Asiatic, and Indian students will be glossed over so some homo Black or Mexican AA retards can make the list instead.

And sports? Forget about it. Just look at any retard-O list on "top fifty heavyweight boxers" or top ANYTHING and you'll see token nods to obviously SUPERIOR White athletes who are ranked much lower than they should be, if they are included at all.

I contend that 5'11" 175 lb Jack Dempsey would have eaten Ali's soul for breakfast, and that Max Baer would have likely laid out a lot of the 1980s heavies like a rug.

Oh and also both Klitschkos would have destroyed anyone in the division, ever.

But that's another discussion.

People need to stop posting links from irrelevant blogs. It's mostly click bait.

 

[Extra Point]

This article is yet another example of anti-white racism. The inclusion of Alex Smith on the list and the reason for his inclusion show this.

The article points out that Smith went 13-0 and 11-4 the last two seasons but claims he belongs on a list of the worst quarterbacks because "no one knows if he's any good." Preposterous. Smith was included because he was white and for no other reason.

The last three seasons Smith's quarterback ratings were 90.7, 104.1 and 89.1. That's good. Last year he was instrumental in turning one of the worst teams in the league into a playoff team.

The claim that "no one knows if he's any good" is a ridiculous statement that was fabricated to denigrate a white man. The author is an anti-white racist with an anti-white agenda.

Geno Smith had a quarterback rating of 66.5 last year yet the author pretends that Alex Smith, with an 89.1 quarterback rating, is a worse player because "no one knows if he's any good." In reality he wants to include a white player and has to make up a sham reason for doing so.

Lurkers take note. Many members of the media have an agenda to denigrate white people as much as possible.

Did that *** watch josh freeman play last year? Also, Geno smith was one of the worst qbs I have ever seen play, not to mention the fact that he was treated with kid gloves by his negrophiliac coach.

Freeman is a free agent thankfully....

I think I've detected a formula for articles like this. Let's see if I can state it properly.

1)White guys make up the vast amount of customers, ie target audience of sportswriters.

2)White guys are slowly realizing that there is massive prejudice against them in the media.

3)There is absolutely no way for White guys to express their anger about this (outside of CF which is verboten). Due to PC restrictions enforced at all levels.

4) Any article that features a discussion of sports (especially the NFL) will feature a large amount of anti-White bias.

5) The anti-White bias pisses off the large White audience but because they cannot speak in racial terms they will respond to the articles with a lot of sputtering and criticism, but avoiding race.

6) The anti-White articles generate a lot of attention because of the latent anger of the White audience, thus those articles are the ones that get attention and response so the feedback loop to the writers is: write more anti-White articles, it gets all the attention and never becomes a racial issue because the audience is prohibited from going there. For the writers: win-win.

7) Push the anti-White envelope even further to see how far they can go until it bursts. Not a problem yet? Keep pushing.

Alex Smith's presence on that list is too high and stinky a pile of BS for even most DWFs. At any rate, any list of the worst quarterbacks without Geno Smiff as #1 is not worth reading. Smiff makes other quotablacks look good.

Ieroner, I appreciate that you posted this article.. It highlights some of the flimsy (so-called) 'journalism' in circulation.. And I also appreciate that you un-linked the article, so I don't contribute the authors' web traffic.

This dunce Reevy is entitled to his subjective opinion, but I gotta' defend Palmer. He had a 10 win season, over 4200 yards, and I think was the only QB to beat the Seahawks in Seattle this season (?) Honestly I think the Cards could've won any division in the NFC (except the one they're in.. which meant four games against the NFC's best) but.. Nothing indicates that Palmer was, or will be, in the basement of NFL passers.. Reevy claims the 10-win Palmer is 'wasting away'..
