    Not very smart according to you, but Watson graduated in 3 years. How many QBs have done that?

    Wow! Quite a few of these unintelligent types must not have gotten the "low wonderlic, bad career memo". They had the nerve to play well.

    Agreed. Also congratulations for not being one of those who see someone stating a fact they don't like so they say something dumb as a half ass response. Clearly that's the norm here.

    I must say though that it's hilarious pointing out a players wonderlic score and the fact that it's less than you want and that it's indicative that he's not a very smart person is "bigoted" in the eyes of the absolute least intelligent people out there.....but only if we're talking about Watson. I could have made the EXACT same comment about Derek Carr who also got a 20 on his wonderlic and the knuckle dragging morons would have had nothing to say about it.

    Way to out yourself.

    The only thing the Wonderlic has proven over the years is that it has zero indication of how successful a player will be in the NFL.

    Above article discredits the the Texans for not re-signing the Hopkins, but haven't we historically reached extension agreements like days before the regular season?

    I believe the Texans philosophy has been "show up to camp" and we'll negotiate.

    Couple of things: there are a lot of Bobby posts to complain about, that is not one of them, he said it was lower but then went on to hope for the best.. also, if this was your argument back, it didn't look positive for Waston who whas in the bottom 25% of everyone you listed and below Ryan Mallet.. I will say, I have really high hopes for him and I don't think the Wonderlic means much at all.

    I never suggested that it had anything to do with NFL success, I just said that his lower than desired score shows that he's a bit dumb. There's a ton of kind of dumb QB's that have long and successful careers. .

    There are several posts from last night that seem to have been deleted. That was exactly Mr. Scarface's take on the situation, he went full on D&D in here.

    LOL.....again. Someone who graduates from a school like Clemson in 3 years is not "dumb". Your bias is showing. Wonderlic is a test that is 50 question in 12 minutes. It is more about your standard test taking abilities than your intelligence. It is a the DUMBEST measure used for evaluation by the NFL.

    Come on kiddo, you won't get the benefit of the doubt this time given that you can't still be drunk. Try your best to act like an adult because you're just going to get your posts deleted again if you go back to the garbage from last night.
