Peyton is widely discussed as one of the smartest QBs to have played - easily better than his brother at reading a D, making adjustments, etc. Are you really arguing that Eli is the better mind at QB?
I know what the Wonderlic is. I also know it's a joke.
Scouts are largely a joke too. Just look at first round picks to know.
Do you honestly believe that owners hire and pay scouts a handsome amount of money because they are a joke and don't succeed more than fail at their job ?......And the wonderlic is an absolute part of their evaluation of every football player coming out of college....If you have a beast like AP, then who cares if he can write his name or not, you know he's gonna play the game well, it doesn't account for as much in a case like that, but when they are so dumb that they go out and get arrested for shooting themselves in the leg in a public setting, it matters very much....
I understand your opinion of it ,just as mine for the HOF and Pro Bowl, but that doesn't take away the effectiveness of the process....It does matter to the ones involved.

“What’s in the past is in the past,” Smith said during a Friday appearance in Charlotte, via Joseph Person of the Charlotte Observer. “At the end of the day, you go to the kitchen, you get a washcloth, you pick up the spilled milk and you move on. That’s what I’m doing. I’m moving on.”
He’s moving on, without hard feelings. Or so he says.

i think Pacman wins a unanimous decision, but i'm pulling for Bradley. this undercard sucks something awful though.
You nailed it, I thought he would have to knock him out to win, but not so....Good fight though.

Kind of a joke of a question and answer.. Davis never played for any NFL team. Was he even on a practice squad?
As a second complaint, the Wonderlic is a joke in itself. Its absurdly stupid has little to do with intelligence and Even less to do with football ability. As has been widely noted recently... According to the test, Peyton is an average qb at best and his brother Eli is one of the smartest/best.
The average wonderlic score for football player's is deemed to be 20......PM got a 28 which is above average, Eli got a 39 , and he is way smarter than PM, he's got 2 Lombardi's with 1 team and that is already out of reach for Peyton.....No the score is not a definite analysis of a player's physical capability, but a QB has to be very smart to play that position where as a RB just needs some brawn and instincts....The scouts pay attention to every bit of info they can get to evaluate a player for the NFL....

Who wins ????
I'm going with the Pac man by tko.

@jamisonhensley: Not so fast. The Ravens would be extremely interested in Ha Ha Clinton-Dix because he's the clear-cut No. 1 safety in the draft. There's just no guarantee that he lasts to the Ravens at No. 17. In fact, the odds are against him slipping that far. The latest buzz has the St. Louis Rams taking Clinton-Dix at No. 13. If the Rams pass on him, I don't see him getting past safety-needy teams like the Chicago Bears (No. 14) and the Dallas Cowboys (No. 16). This is why so many draft experts are predicting the Ravens will take Northern Illinois' Jimmie Ward in the second round.

The answer is Darren Davis with a whopping 4.
And the highest score was Pat Mcinally with a perfect 50.
link 5 best, 5 worst...

I guess one of the friends is getting paid to take the fall
Could be, but I don't think he has enough money to make it worth going to jail for.....

He may not get a suspension since the case was dismissed for lack of evidence.....
-
Wow, you knew I meant you. I didn't see that coming.
Mods, prepare for whiney complaints about me to be sent to you. Sorry, someone must have told him I was probably making fun of him.
Ooh! I wonder if I will get any fight invitations!
For what ?.....Showing that you have no life and nothing ever substantial to say.....Just keep hiding behind your PC little man and noone will ever know that you are really 14 yrs old, 98lbs with arms the size of broom sticks, and a major coward.....
I think I hear Fat Albert calling you, Weird Harold.....Go on now, you PC badman....snicker !!!!

Oh player. I thought it said poster at first. Player I don't know.
I see the pizza delivery guy dropped your girl at the beach today..

Didn't Marcus Vick get a 2?
No he actually got an 11.....Woohoo , lol

I want to see Curtis hit Manning with one of his forearms, I could see it now Manning would get up and beg to an official, and Mike would have closelined him again.
You mean like this !!
-
Play this at CY or something. It was fine at Aberdeen too. This is a waste.
For real !!.....They owe us anyway, from crashing our home opener last yr.....That's a dumb idea Webby, I see flop written all over it...

I know you're thinking VY, but no.........
VY got a 6 on the Wonderlic test first time and improved to a whopping 11 with a second try.
But there is someone dumber than him, "Who is it" ?

Guilty or not, I'm talking about the stupidity of putting himself in that position and risking a career on a wild nite with the boys....Juvenile !!!!
-
Guys look good in the preseason but fizzle against better talent.... Omar Brown is another one
I thought he got cut because of the suspension....As soon as it was over, he was gone....Now he can't even get on a roster as depth...
Amazing how quick these guys can lose it....
-
I remember the reports of him showing great promise at safety and I know he was suspended for a drug violation, but he has worked out for the Bengals, Bears and the Skins, and no takers at all...
The Skins opted for a guy that has never played in an NFL game over CT....
He must really be bad....
-
You would think these stupid players would get wise and not put themselves in these predicaments....But obviously college was just a door to the sports world to them and they skipped the common sense course....I don't feel sorry for big headed , mouthy , overpaid idiots like him at all.....
It's part of the anti moral way of life.....

Honestly the biggest surprise was the victim.... was a women
Oh No You Di'nt....ROTFL
Who is the dumbest football player ?
in NFL General

How bad do you think teams would be if they had to pick these college kids without the info the scouts gather for them and searching for players that not only are talented and smart but that fit whatever scheme your football team runs ?
I don't think they discard any info they can gather, on and off the field......You've seen players look unstoppable in one game and then helpless against a different scheme D or O....They have to find the whole player, and that's all part of the process....
