4/1 – Arrington Plays the Race Card Again

Lavar Arrington said today on the Lavar Arrington Show with Chad Dukes on 106.7 The Fan that he agrees with former NFL QB Warren Moon that “A lot of the criticism Cam Newton is receiving is unfortunate and racially based.”  Moon was interviewed about Newton and seems to feel the need to defend the analysis of Newton that Pro Football Weekly draft analyst Nolan Nawrocki wrote about in a recent assessment of Newton. Evidence of a racial bias seems far-fetched given Nawrocki’s past player assessments.  Consider the case of Carolina Panther quarterback Jimmy Clausen last season. Scouts had very similar things to say about the former Notre Dame passer’s personality, calling him “scripted and disingenuous in interviews”, according to Nawrocki.
