Whitlock: People Are Afraid to Criticize Tomlin Cause He's Black

[BFritz21]

Jason Whitlock, who happens to be black, says that people are afraid to criticize Mike Tomlin because he's black.

He claims that Tomlin's coddled and is treated differently because he's black and that he and his coaches are out-of-control. He notes how Bill Belichick would be shredded for doing the exact things that Tomlin does.

He mentions how his team and coaches are out-of-control and that they're all clueless, but the media is afraid to come down on him because he's black.

I think that him being black plays a large part in it, but I also think that him coaching for the Steelers, who are a winning franchise and above scrutiny, also plays a part in it because people are afraid to condemn the empire.

I think that even some Steelers fans might hate him and his antics, but because he's black, they're afraid to speak-out.
