I dislike his meltdowns, I dislike his refusal to tackle, I dislike his me-first attitude that includes freelancing and not running the coverages that were called, screaming at coaches on the sidelines, etc., etc. I think people put too much emphasis on his INTs without realizing how much the other things negatively affect a team defense. I don't find kneeling during the special song an issue. I'm sure the magic sky cloth can freedom just fine regardless. And I don't think a bunch of white guys should be weighing in on light skinned/dark skinned issues. It's nunya, and we don't know shit about it. |

Yes, black kids who struggled in 'da hood can sometimes have resentment for black kids who had life easy. I'd imagine Mahomes' upbringing, his "oreo" genes, and the vast amount of praise heaped onto him can harbor a lot of resentment among certain personalities. And while yes, Wilson's fall out with the Seahawks was cited due to preferential treatment, those feelings of animosity likely stem from, or are aided by, the fact that Russel wasn't "black enough". Most QB's do in fact receive preferential treatment, and that's something these guys aren't unfamiliar with. So what's different with Russel? So you take not "black enough" Oreo Russel Wilson (remember, there WERE early reports that of teammates claiming Wilson wasn't black enough, which express exactly what Whitewhale is saying) and then coddle him? Now he's REALLY not "one of us". Yeah, those two things feed off each other and further push the resentment Seattle's locker had. |

White guys playing the race card... fascinating.
Maybe Seattle defenders don't like Russell Wilson, because they had a legendary defense that crushed opponents, won the postseason, and all praise went onto a guy who consistently put the ball in the other team's hands, then talked about Godwater and got an insane contract while the Legion of Boom was systematically disbanded to pay for it. But yeah, I'm sure it's racially motivated. |

And it started, iirc, with Percy Harvin. Not the defense. |

Great quarterbacks should be unicorns. You should feel slightly awkward and out of place talking to them. You WANT them to be a breed apart - no pun intended. |

But I do believe that if Russell Wilson were an absolute killer on offense, this wouldn't be a problem. If he put up 35 points and let the defense play with a lead, there wouldn't be the resentment (or at least, not as much). But I think you make great points. |

JFC who cares... the obsession that some on this board still have with Alex Smith and Marcus Peters is pathetic.
Marcus Peters' only remaining relevance with this franchise is the fact that Veach did a terrible job in replacing him. |
