I think the point is that anything is possible, but to make a claim you need evidence. And any claim submitted without evidence should be dismissed without evidence.
Add to that, tony actually made a good point that the exact same thing happened with Foles and he’s white, so... it kinda shows that although it is possible, it’s highly unlikely.

I'm pretty sure that I gave reasons that players wouldn't ruin their careers to sabotage their QB...
But here are some questions for you so see if we share the same reality:
1. Is Nick Foles black?
2. Were only black players tanking? If so, which ones can you point to whose initials aren't AJ?
3. What high effort plays have you seen from the Eagles since Wentz was benched?
Or how about “If both QBs are failing, then I am part of the problem. That means I need to put forth more effort, more film study, rehab to get on the field, whatever it takes to help Hurts succeed. Otherwise my job may be in jeopardy.” That could lead to the perception of teammates seemingly trying harder.
None of us know because we obviously aren’t privy to any information. Likely, a little bit of everything we’ve discussed going on in that locker room.
Stand your ground, have a tough hide, roam wild and free, have a strong spirit, let the chips fall where they may.
IF
BY RUDYARD KIPLING
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies,
Or being hated, don’t give way to hating,
And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise:
If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;
If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build ’em up with worn-out tools:
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: ‘Hold on!’
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings—nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!
