click-bait there's almost literally nothing to talk about
if you go to the Ringer NFL front page there are 10 articles or podcasts devoted to Newton to the Pats.
https://www.theringer.com/nflAnd race is discussed because its a raging front page issue now and Boston unfortunately has a past with a few idiot racists.
So do other cities but those cities are less visible and less successful than the Boston teams in general,
So its a good target, its get attention, and it attracts trolls who have little else to talk about.
In any case, as to real substance, rather than Utleyesque value-free BS
Most observers think BB got a steal with his 1-yr signing of Newton.
and as posted here numerous times BB is probsably the NFL's best known value investor. He looks for depressed assets at below book value prices.
Sometimes he hits sometimes not.
I suspect if Newton's healthy he'll bust his ass to become the player he once was. As he's playing for next big contract.
But he'll still have the challenge of following the GOAT-never an easy task for anyone, black or white. .
And he's got to win over a veteran the locker-room that knows about winning with his ability and leadership
I was not not big on his theatrics, the Superman BS, and celebrating 1st downs, but if he plays hard he'll make a lot of friends in NE.
But if he backs away from a loose ball on the ground he'll catch heat, and righly so, and race will have nothing to do with it.
