ClaimJumper great write up about the starters, good detail mate!


As has been mentioned before, some players like Danny Woodhead are just as vital to waking the DWF masses, people like Danny are the ones that score TD's etc, because alot of average fans aren't going to pay attention to good offensive line play however good it is.

Cole Beasley at Dallas is another although not a starter on paper his play on third down will be crucial this year.

To me its crucial teams like the Jaguars and Chargers do well so Gerhart and Woodhead are given airtime and a chance to showcase their skills and hopefully turn a few heads and make even a few fans wake up.

Here's one solid gain, Alex Boone ended his holdout with the 49ers and should be starting for week one, giving the 49ers a sixth starter, though I wonder about how long Skuta will be one for them.

Nice write up! I can live with the offense, but the numbers on defense are pitiful. And nobody questions it; Diversity this, diversity that, but no one says a word about defense. Nobody seems to notice that there's not one white man on half the defensive units in the league...sad.

Just some things I would note:

- The Chargers do not implement a FB, so I'd consider Woodhead a starter.
- Pretty sure Brett Keisel will start at DE for the Steelers.
- Heath is likely to start at S for Dallas
- Conte is starting at S or the Bears
- Sorenson has started 3 preseason games for the Chiefs; should start a S
- Audie Cole will take over for Brinkley by week 2
- Miles Burris is going to start for Oakland; not sure how long he'll be allowed to keep the job though
- Margus Hunt is starting for the Bengals
- Jeff Tarpenian is starting at ILB for Houston.
- If Jim Leonhard doesn't start, he should get plenty of snaps for the Browns, as will Sendejo for the Vikes.
- and Jordan Tripp is probably going to start for the Dolphins

Guess we can take Welker off for the moment suspended for 4 games for breaching PED policy. I only hope that Wes didn't do anything deliberate, like to think of him as one of NFL's good guys. Amphetamines apparently, Wes!! :sad:

Everytime I think it can't possibly get any worse something like this happens. The media is going to have a "field day" with this one.

If there is any positive at all to take away from this its that he won't be rushed back onto the field after a concussion. Although this could be bull**** made up from TPTB, he's always reminded me of a coked up spider monkey out on the field. With the way he pops up from big hits and generally bounces around after making the catch, I'm hoping this is only a banned supplement but who knows.

With all the rapists, murderers, wife beater and overall plagues of society representing the NFL, there going to make poor Wes out as the worst of the worst.

First time offenses for drugs is only a warning, but PEDs are a 4 game suspension the first time.

If it was drugs hes gotten busted twice and is an even bigger moron.

When the Broncos play the Raiders there will be 4 white starters out of 44 players.

Now thats diversity!

Not quite, celticdb15. The day we tune in to an NFL game and 44/44 starters are black is when true diversity will be achieved. The NFL will no doubt get an A+ score for that one.

I predict we will see at least one, possibly more teams with 22 black starters within the next 5 years. And I also predict the DWFs will not notice anything about it, and if anyone dares bring it up in a forum somewhere, he will be chased off as a racist with replies such as "Hey, I see 22 humans" or "The best players play".

White people need to stop supporting these racist teams.

They should refuse to attend games, refuse to buy merchandise and cancel their cable services.

Not attending game? Check, Refuse to buy punk ass merchandise? Check. Cancel my cable? No. I love my 300 channels. The year that there are not a handful of White stars to pull for, is the time I will switch it off completely like the NBA during the regular season. Less of course if a team with 2 or more whites players significantly contribute to the championship team like Dallas did several years ago.

I do hope that Margus Hunt will be starting for the Bengals, but all the depth charts have Carlos Dunlop starting instead.

I was looking at the depth charts on cbssports, and it appears the Dolphins would rather go into week one without a SS than give Jordan Kovacs an opportunity to start.

Also, due to injuries, the 49ers will probably start Chris Borland at LB and Craig Dahl at safety.

I agree that white people should stop supporting Negro Football League teams with their hard-earned cash, but the vast majority of white people are so de-racinated that they do not even notice, critically, the race/color of the players. And any suggestion of white pride is met with cringing grimaces, embarrassment and "nazi" imagery. Whereas blacks and hispanics are encouraged to celebrate their race, culture and inclusive ways, whites are beaten down when they exhibit this.

Eagles have 8 on offense

The Eagles have 8 on offense. TE Zach Ertz.

Total white starters should remain pretty constant comapred to 2013 with roughly 174 white players projected to start in week 1 based on the most recent depth charts after the cuts to 53 man rosters. Skimmed through all the names pretty fast, so hopefully I didnt miss anyone...

A few interesting facts:

  • The Browns, Packers, and Patriots are the only 3 teams projected to have an all white O-Line
  • 13 teams are projected to start coal black defenses

According to my research, 3 teams, SEA, DET, and BAL have no white defensive players ON THE ENTIRE ROSTER. 7 more have only 1. 6 have only 2. That's half the teams in the NFL with 2 or less white defensive players on the ENTIRE ROSTER.

well how many White defenders on all rosters? If we have 30 starting but less than 2 on half the NFL rosters, that means a high ratio of White defenders are starters in the league. I guess no room for error, play on a pro bowl level (and most of the White starters do) or be cut, not even as many special teams demons. I have noticed that if a White player is merely average or slightly above average dwfs will want you cut right away. Scott Shanle "must have had dirt on Sean Payton" is what they kept saying. He was a solid linebacker. The pro bowl ones get enough crap as it is. Solid just doesnt cut it for White guys.

Thats absolutely staggering. The fans must be real drunk to think this league is seriously playing the best players. Imagine what guys like Sammy Baugh, or johnny Unitis would do to these coal black , and half retarded defenses!
