Ryan Fitzpatrick Scored a 48 on his Wonderlic Test

[sportscurmudgeon]

Stephen Hawking probably scored 50 on the Wonderlic - - if he ever took it. So what...

Look folks, the Wonderlic is a test that tries to measure - inaccurately to be sure - a person's innate learning capability. That is ONE part of being a good NFL QB/player. For a QB, it is probably very important. But it is not and will never be as important as the ability to throw a football accurately with velocity and/or the ability to move around when there is pressure from the defense.

A "stupid" QB would not be a good thing to have if you want to run any kind of offense that requires quick analysis of the defense and subsequent decision making.

A "smart" QB would not be a good thing if he cannot throw the football.

The challenge is to find one that can throw well AND is smarter than a cheese sandwich...
