“I understand how people arrive at the conclusion that this feels like both collusion and racism when the Atlanta Falcons say, ‘no interest’…you don’t want to piss off Desmond Ridder.” - Dan reacts to the latest Lamar Jackson news. 📺 youtube.com/live/yecYID7o7…
@LeBatardShow Don’t put the Atlanta Falcons in this… technically Ridder is Black so it can’t be about skin color in this case… we in Atlanta want a defense that can play for 4 quarters… we not worried about scoring 30 points a game cuz we were too busy giving up 35 points a game…
@Jamieh711 @LeBatardShow Also, just because Cleveland gave Deshaun crazy money, doesn’t mean every team is going to do the same. I love Lamar, but can he stay healthy, probly in an Arthur Smith offense. This race narrative is fabricated, there was not a better buzz over the Falcons than when we had Vick!
@Jamieh711 @LeBatardShow Dont know why, but I got a good laugh at "technically"
@Jamieh711 @LeBatardShow Smith wants to run the brick and have a defense that can get to the quarterback. Ridder is the man for now
@Jamieh711 @LeBatardShow Not to mention ATL’s GM is also black. IMO Fontenot has made some great moves so far! As great as LJ is, he nor ANY player is worth selling the farm for. I’d rather see a gradual rebuild over a couple of years and then they have long term sustained success! Rise Up!
