On ESPN radio just now, Freddie Coleman chose as his top 5 black quarterbacks

 

1) Doug Williams

2) Steve McNair

3) James Harris

4) Michael Vick

5) Marlin Briscoe

 

Harris played quarterback for the Bills. Briscoe was a wide receiver with the Bills, but he did attempt 3 passes.

 

I'm surprised he didn't have Russell Wilson or Randall Cunningham in his top 5.

Why create or emphasize  that divide? They are all QB’s, and some are better than others.

There has to be some criteria that the OP missed.  There are too many better QBs than Harris and Briscoe.  3 of them have already been mentioned and there are several playing now better than those 2.  My guess is they are the top 5 who were told before the draft to change positions if they wanted to play in the NFL, although I don't think Vick was ever told that.

Doug Williams ?? LOL

 

Warren Moon was better than all those guys.

Lol what is this crap? Whatever a Freddie Coleman is, I'm pretty sure he wont have a job tomorrow if he did this list on ESPN's dime as noted. I'm as anti PC culture as anyone, but a qb is a qb. I dont see race factoring into my judgment of how good or bad a qubby is.

He's black himself, so he'll be fine.............I like him.  He goes from like 9-1 or so on espn radio.  

 

I actually find it to be an interesting topic.  But, Warren Moon is in the HOF and none of those guys are.  Brisco played like a few games at QB..............Something is amiss with that list.

I really think this is divisive.  Why say 1st black this or female that. I never understood the reason to emphasize it.
