MackSeven3, you do realize that Dak’s mother is white right?

As I said, there are several factors in the differences in records for both teams. The Redskins defense, like that of Pittsburgh (ranked 27th in ypg), is a bend-but-don’t-break defense that will naturally give up more yards. Dallas takes a different tact defensively, giving up fewer yards. I would rather take Dallas’…

People can both be bigots and also be willing to hire people for the sake of winning football games. This was the norm in the NFL since Paul Brown picked up Marion Motley. The teams that passed on Warren Moon because he was a black guy playing quarterback still drafted black guys to play the offensive and defensive…

Prediction: This child will grow up to get blowjobs from Bills fans in exchange for Tyrod Taylor jerseys, piss on little children at stadium urinals, and use the F-word as noun, verb, and adjective.

Racism isn’t always about malice. Human nature is tribal, with a preference for those who look like us over the proverbial other. So I’m not ascribing racism as malicious intent. I do think, however, that it becomes easier for people to support those who look like them than those who don’t. That even applies to…

Jones is a lunatic. But his lunacy is not the only reason. Or even the most-important.

Dallas had the same offensive line last year. Yet none of the three replacement quarterbacks for Romo could manage more than one win. Sure, offensive lines matter. But so does the quality of quarterback play behind that line. Getting rid of that pass quickly matters. Making smart decisions in seeing the field matters.…

All stats are imperfect because humans are impefect. But when put together, they provide a fuller picture. This year, when you combine the quarterback rating with the wins record for each team, you learn a few things. One of them: That one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL this year is one Dak Prescott, a rookie…

Stats are never the best when they disagree with you. That’s the nature of human beings when confronted with data that is counter-intuitive.

Tom Brady gets to hand off to LeGarrette Blount, who washed out with the Steelers and hasn’t had a 1,000-yard season since his rookie year with Tampa Bay. Kirk Cousins hands off to a motley crew of running backs that includes the fumble-prone Matt Jones. Matthew Stafford hands off to Theo Riddick (not a 1,000-yard…

Let’s turn your question on its head: Why should the starting quarterback for the team, a younger guy who will be able to start for a decade, especially with new talent also playing well, lose his job?

Race is a primary reason,though not the only one. The other issues weren’t a focus of my concern because at the end of the day, the other issues fall apart for a team when you are 1) 6-1 and winning the division, and 2) the quarterback is playing well. San Francisco proved that a few years back when Kaepernick took…

Andy Dalton has been sacked 25 times, second-most in the NFL behind Andrew Luck. Still has a 98 passer rating and fewer interceptions than Luck. Matt Ryan has been sacked 20 times, fifth-highest after Luck and Dalton. Passer rating of 115.8, the second-highest in the league after Tom Brady.

1. The Cowboys always do well against the Redskins at Fedex. The ‘boys already used up that card in Week 2.

As someone who has been a fan since Riggins ruled the backfield (and has watched games at both RFK and Fedex), the answer is yes. People, being people, make mistakes with names all the time.

Based on stats, which do matter, Prescott would also replace Luck. Luck only has a 96.2 passer rating, and is a less-efficient passer than Prescott at this point.

I’m straight-edge, and thanks to health issues, not a drinker, either. The stats tell the story. Prescott has thrown fewer INTs than Manning (by a six-fold), has been more-efficient as a passer, and has done more to put his team in positions to win. A smart coach goes with the guy who gives his team the best chance of…

That’s fine and your choice. But I would argue that race does play a part in the hemming and hawing about Prescott’s future as a starter.

I don’t. At all. Last year, after Tony Romo went down, the Cowboys went through three quarterbacks who couldn’t succeed RG III as Kurt Cousin’s backup, and wouldn’t be allowed to be quarterback for the Cleveland Browns in the worst circumstances.

Briles can burn in hell for all I care. That still wouldn’t atone for all of his inaction and failure as a human being and Child of God.
