PossibleCabbage Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Well, there's very little correlation between "scoring high on the wonderlic" and "being good at football" for any position, and there's basically nothing about "is this guy a dumbass" you couldn't figure out from talking to him for 5 minutes. Plus, it's not like we don't send scouts to schools that couldn't find out "this kid thinks 2+2=-3, without requiring a field of order 7."

That's fine for a yes/no qualitative answer. "He's a dumbass !" The Wonderlic tries to assess "how big of a dumbass is he ?" giving employers a quantitative result And now these pro leagues use the AIQ test instead - which was designed for athletes. https://athleticintel.com/the-aiq/ "The Athletic Intelligence Quotient (AIQ) is a mental analytics tool currently being used by MLB teams (including World Series winners), NFL teams (including Super Bowl winners), NBA teams, NHL teams, MLS teams, Division 1 teams (including FBS Bowl Winners and a no. 1 ranked basketball team), Olympic training facilities, and training academies. The AIQ measures the intellectual abilities most used in attaining, enhancing, and applying athletic skills. Just as a stopwatch measures speed, the AIQ provides valuable information about an athlete’s performance-specific intellectual abilities. The AIQ identifies an athlete’s mental strengths and weaknesses, helps coaches train athletes to reach the highest level of performance, and aids management and player personnel in scouting and roster decisions." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s an idiot, gullible enough to be played by Brady and whoever else he’s dumb enough to listen to. I hope the Buc’s season comes crashing down in spectacular hell-fire. And none of this absolves Brown for the steaming pile he is also. That entire franchise is built on a foundation of fookery! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leader Posted January 6, 2022 Author Share Posted January 6, 2022 Adam Schefter - Last week, Antonio Brown and his agent requested that the remaining $2 million in incentives in his contract for this season be guaranteed. The team declined to guarantee those incentives. Antonio Brown did not tell anyone on the Bucs’ medical staff about his ankle bothering him on gameday before the game against the Jets or during it, per Bucs’ GM Jason Licht.

Leader Posted January 6, 2022 Author Share Posted January 6, 2022 QB's and the media having all sorts of chatter...... Mary Kay Cabot - Baker Mayfield must resolve his differences with Kevin Stefanski in case they need to co-exist next season. Even if Mayfield does mend the fences, he might not be back if the Browns decide to upgrade, which seems likely at this point. But he and Stefanski can’t run it back unless they hash things out and find a path forward. Baker Mayfield - You and many other Cleveland local media continue to be drama stirring reporters with no sources or facts. Don’t put words in my mouth so you can put food on your table. I’m not your puppet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he said they're "close" to being a good defense. /// Close....and yet so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
