No, that's just your opinion.

Geez, talk about screwing over the little guy.

You know what's weird? You going out of your way to defend every QB compared to Allen. It's almost like you have an agenda you can't let go of.

That’s BS. You can play that stupid rationale thought with most anyone.

Josh has nothing to do or tied to anything in 2017.

I remember that!

Reading between the lines, I would interpret that as a "No" but will support his players who do.

I don't think that will solve things either. You could perhaps do both, but if you remove the anthem just to have a personal time of reflection, that won't go over well either.

I agree as well. Some people are rock solid in how they perceive the anthem. Some show solidarity, some show there are issues that need attention, some take a piss and get beer. All valid points. My thought is...if the NFL were to remove the anthem, flag unfurling, etc as some posters have suggested, does this now become the NFL is trying to silence voices by removing the anthem? If so, then the debate rages on.

Certainly not disputing you on that as that is who I am. I think a point some posters are trying to make is that there are those who believe in both, that you can agree and support efforts against racial discrimination, police brutality, and racism in general, but also support the ideal of National Pride. It's not cookie cutter one way or the other.

Do you practice the same? Do you listen to those who might actually agree with race issues but also have a strong affirmation for for the military and their beliefs? Do you know that the military stands at attention and salutes the flag as it is risen in the morning and lowered in the evening. That service members stop what they are doing (even driving) and render respect? While that means nothing to you, to others that means a lot. It’s not just my grandaddy served BS.

Right!

Who's "Their"

I agree

I don't know, hence the reason I wished they asked. When he runs with the ball, it seems to come out relatively easy when hit as compared to when he's hit in the pocket. Could be how he runs with the ball, but defenders definitely know this is a weakness.

If not mistaken, he's also the one who said Lamar and Josh would be the best QBs out of the 2018 class. He's looking good on that too.

One thing I wish one of the reporters would have asked is "what's with all the fumbles in 2019 and what is he doing to correct it?

It was a silly play no doubt. But if it connected, the narrative would be a little bit different. And if it were Mahomes, it would be out-of-this world! That said, an example of Allen trying to do too much.

Or it could be your Drew Brees moment for commenting on something without having full context perhaps. I'm not bashing you, I'm just saying we all make mistakes and say things without thinking fully through it sometimes. No one here is immune from that.

Was this your Drew Brees moment?

That's what it will come down to won't it? Now players who stand will be viewed as silent and complicit (even if they support their teammates).

Really...College?

I think we are safe to edit the title of this thread!

My personal definition is conjecture (assumption, inference, supposition) matches closely with your perception. I don't see Allen toning back stiff arming and trying to show-up defenders if he has to, nor did I ever suspect defenders headhunting Allen based on what you call "racist tweets".
