Bomani Jones baselessly accuses 'White folks' of favoring Josh Allen, while he favors Black quarterbacks

Though it's not even late August, former ESPN host Bomani Jones is already angered by Josh Allen and the White folks.

On his podcast this week, Jones previewed the NFL season by accusing White people of having a bias toward Allen that people of color do not share.

"America's number one rooting project, the Buffalo Bills ... they got him a new stadium. Boy, White folks is so ready for the eventual Josh Allen coronation. And it's not all the White folks, but it's White folks. We ain't got it."

ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH. TAKE THE DON'T @ ME PODCAST ON THE ROAD. DOWNLOAD NOW!

Is that so?

His guest, The Ringer writer Diante Lee, nodded along, saying, "It's enough of them [White folks]."

Damn those White folks.

If you were wondering which story, scandal, podcast, or statement Jones and Lee are referring to, you are not alone. I wondered the same thing. Unfortunately, neither specified what proof they have of this supposed racial bias.

OutKick asked both Jones and Lee to explain. Neither has responded as of publication. We will update this story if either does.

But don't expect it.

Bomani Jones has been on this talking point for a while. He has long accused nameless media figures of giving Josh Allen a pass and rooting for him because he is White.

Jones is one of the leading participants in the media-manufactured race war between Allen and Lamar Jackson. As expected, he sides with Jackson. Just last week, he complained that anonymous people — who else? — are putting more pressure on Jackson than Allen this season.

His argument: The Bills kept Allen and gave him a new head coach, so he has no more excuses.

The problem: The Ravens also kept Jackson and gave him a new coach.

Why the double standard? While racially motivated, Jones may not have known that the Ravens fired John Harbaugh and hired Jesse Minter. He often doesn't appear to know the details about the sports he covers, beyond the skin colors of the subjects involved.

Last season, he said Stafford must win a Super Bowl to make the Hall of Fame.

"He's the new Josh Allen," Jones said about Stafford. "He's the least scrutinized No. 1 pick in the history of No. 1 overall picks. If the Rams don't win the Super Bowl, shut this Hall of Fame thing up."

Jones was seemingly unaware that Stafford had already won a Super Bowl just a few years earlier.

He later backtracked, saying Stafford needed to win a second Super Bowl to earn a spot in the Hall of Fame. This argument didn't make much sense either, considering only 13 quarterbacks have won more than one Super Bowl, yet 36 have been enshrined, many of whom have lesser resumes than Stafford.

But the facts didn't matter. Stafford played the Bears that week, and Jones needed to find a way to discredit Stafford and elevate Caleb Williams.

Likewise, he is now arguing that Kyler Murray is a better quarterback than Sam Darnold, who just won a Super Bowl last season.

Are you starting to see a trend?

Bomani is also not a believer in Drake Maye, Fernando Mendoza or Ju
