Racial Tension in Tennessee?

[moochman]

Interesting topic, thank you Rush Limbaugh! I can honestly say that in Detroit I have notice a 'color blindness' with Bloey Harrington. His passes are thrown behind all of his receivers without regard to race, creed, or play design.

To tell you the truth I was wondering something quite similar to what Ek is suggesting. I base this simply on the reaction of Mason after finally catching a TD pass on Monday evening. He looked real angry. It might not be racism but I was thinking maybe he's getting tired of Bennet getting all the glory?

Maybe he was getting tired of losing, seeing as they lost again on MNF.

Didn't they humiliate the Packers on MNF?

Your point is?

I think this was a joke, guys...

But the real reason, seriously speaking, is that second string QBs often have built knacks with the second team WRs, since they work together in practice. Don't quote me on this, but I believe Bennett worked with the 2nd team last year (or did McCariens) in practice and thus, Volek feels comfortable throwing the ball to Bennett. It's just that he's so used to seeing and passing to him as a safety valve in practice, that he'll naturally incline towards him in faster game situations, as well.

Another example is TJ Houshmandzadeh's emergence in Cincinnati, which has been consistent with Carson Palmer's coming out party. Carson worked with the 2nd team last year with Housh, while Kitna developed a battery with CJ and Warrick. As you may have noticed, as the year went on, Carson Palmer has gone to Chad more and more (along with TJ, still), as he gets more comfortable and confident with Johnson as his wide receiver.

Chris Chandler hates everyone. He'd much rather throw to someone on the other team.

Is that why no one gives the ball to Chris Fuamatu-Ma'afala?

I bet he misses Bill Schroeder though.


I rolled my eyes when I first read this post wondering why someone would even bother, but it took a turn for the funny so it gets the KG thumbs up.

maybe its that on certain teams, that player is better than the other player and thats why they go to them, or they just get open more.

Probably. Schroeder was so fast Harrington could throw behind him without hardly trying.

Let's hope Timmy Chang from Hawaii U. doesn't make the NFL. He'll be throwing to Dat Ngyuen and Kailee Wong all day!!!
