And the majority of linemen are black.

Actually there's a pretty good mix of white and black linemen. Now, I can't say the same for runningbacks and receivers.

This is going to sound racist.... But here we go anyways. It's no secret black people are faster and typically more athletic than white people. Black quarterbacks in high school tend to rely heavily upon their legs because the coach is trying to utilize his athleticism, and running qbs are typically successful in high school. Same goes for college. But in the NFL, they dont work very well unless they can pass effectively, which most of them never had to be able to do.

I don't think that would have sounded as racist, if at all, as it would have if you had just left out the "This is going to sound racist" part.

Probably. But people on this site tend to be really political correct, so I figured I would throw that disclaimer in there.

Yeah, that's why the whole Tebow thing's getting interesting. It's hard to imagine him lasting in the NFL too long taking the hits from running as much as he does.

That's not why he isn't gonna last long. He won't last long because he can't hit water from a boat.

Like 80% of America is white, so if 80% of American football quarterbacks were white, it would make sense.

But only about half of the average football team is white.
