Back in the 1960s, they used to say in Corporate America: "Nobody ever got fired for buying IBM." In today's NFL, playing blacks is like buying IMB was back then.

Note that Bill Belichick of the Patriots doesn't go nuts and, say, start a white guy at cornerback (no NFL team has a had a starting non-black CB since 2003). But he regularly finds overlooked whites for stereotypically black skill positions like receiver and running back.
