I remember when rushing touchdowns didn't count for Cam Newton but guess who they count for now? I remember when Jalen Hurts got all that flack for QB sneaks and tush pushes but guess who's praised for that now? I remember when Lamar Jackson was (still is) called a running backs after winning a unanimous MVP but guess who's running is praised? Everyday I'm reminded the whiteness will always be the standard for so many people, it's a primarily black/non white sport and that's still the case. They want what black quarterbacks have shown they can do but they don't want a black quarterback doing it.
Even the way that quarterbacks are seen in the team hierarchy is a remnant from the time where every single quarterback in the NFL was white and the only thing that a black player could be is a skilled position player or play on defense. That's why they said that black men didn't have the intelligence or capabilities or leadership skills to be quarterbacks. So many black boys were barred from playing quarterback for this reason and just because there's more now doesn't mean they're insulated from racism. Check on any social media and see how quick white NFL fans or non fans, I don't really care, are to call these quarterbacks all kinds of racial slurs and people want us to be okay with that? There is criticism and then there's just overt racism. I welcome criticism and discourse concerning the play level of all black quarterbacks but I don't let that obscure the dog whistles that sometimes lay in this discourse. So sure, talk about Lamar's struggles in the playoffs etc, the whole fanbase does and we root for him to do better and be better in those situations but don't say that the only reason he's good at playing action in games is because when he pulls the ball 'his skin is so dark that it obscures the football'. This is something a real play by playing announcer for the 49ers said and I'll never forget that. Ever. If you can't see how that's a crazy fucking thing to say then I don't know.
This whole MVP debate has brought out such an ugly side of so many people and I'm not even surprised. How can I be? Whatever the case, I'll continue rooting for every black quarterback (except Deshaun Watson) to do well in this league because so many people live to see them fail.

I've finally watched all of Nightmare Time and noticed something interesting in Yellow Jacket, or rather the lack of something.
Max Jagerman
Because you know that kid who bullies Hannah at the start, Brad Callahan? He has a throwaway line that reveals he's the quarterback. Which means Max isn't. Steph is there, though, which also means it's not a new class. So where the hell is Max??
