I didn’t “pull the race card.” But I do think that old perceptions still linger, and I can’t say with certainty that I don’t fall into those traps occasionally. If I was a Bills fan, would I have been as patient with early 2nd year Josh Allen if he was black? I can’t say for sure. It’s not intentional IMO, but the perception that black QBs don’t read the field well (effective pocket passers) or are better as runners still infects a large portion of the population. For example, I’m not convinced Lamar or Kyler are all that good from the pocket, but I often wonder if it’s because they aren’t, or if old perceptions affect my opinions more than they should.
