He's really been hard on the subject. I think he should take a step back and ask himself if RG3 is actually worth knighting for.

nothing gets you more attention than bringing race into the discussion. Not shocking that Jones would do this.

I think that's just an incorrect racial perception issue. Black people are still hyper-attuned to the role of the black quarterback in the NFL. Even before the dog stuff Michael Vick was a constant source of debate because any white fans who criticized him were viewed with suspicion by black fans RE: the reason for their motives.

I'm sure there were people who took a lot of joy in RG3 being benched but... he hasn't played well since Shanny was covering for him and he's acted like a turd at times and his entourage throwing Shanny (and whoever else they could) under the bus was just a giant distraction argument that made him even less likable.

That POS should be fired. At least K.C. keeps then in ball games. And he is a first year starter, he is getting games under his belt, most first year starters are not winners, even Elway and Manning.

Wow another avenue where Jones brings up race, and to think, people on this board told me that he isn't racist not too long ago.

The troll wins again.

Bomani Jones stays employed because the racists clicked on his story and keep talking about him.

It's sad that you don't understand this. People like Bomani Jones and Jemele Hill are unemployed if nobody reads their articles to get pissed off or tunes into ESPN to hate-watch their shows.

Sounds like he has an awful opinion to me. I won't click on the article, because I refuse to support trolls.

Cousins sucks too.

Don't know or see the racial element, but I've long said that it makes no sense at all that Cousins starts over RG3. I've been saying that all season.

Right. Cousins sucks and he's no improvement over RG3. So, why even start Cousins when you've invested so much in RG3? This is why race comes up.

Sounds like you're talking about "moral" victories and there's no place for "moral" victories in the NFL. Either you're getting the job done or you're not. Cousins isn't getting the job done and has shown he's no better than RG3. So, why is Cousins still the starter?

RG3 isn't playing because of the Head Coach

Ask him why? Looks like he decided they were moving on, and will address the Qb situation at the 2016 NFL Draft
