A. I will no longer discuss racism as it is almost definitely against the board rules.

B. Wonderlic has absolutely nothing to do with intelligence.

RG3 was a prolific passing quarterback in college than ran sometimes, but of course because of how he looks, he is just the next Michael Vick and will have to learn to protect himself in the NFL.

If RG3 and Luck both stayed in the pocket, I still trust RG3 to make the play more than I trust Luck.

discussing racism isn't against board rules. i talk about racism across various boards like 5-8 times per week

people really aren't doing this. he's been shown more deference and respect for his passing than any other QB i can remember with mobility. analysts have gone out of their way to say he's a passer...who can run.

also, when comparing the stats alone of RG3 and Luck, remember Luck ran a pro-style attack while RG3 was running a wide-open spread passing attack. complexity of offense and ability to accumulate stats are vastly different

i still really like RG3 though

Then what is its purpose/what does it have to do it?

Andrew Luck's intelligence is stated by having a 3.5 in civil engineering from one of the most prestigious universities in the country. Also, did you see what Luck was throwing to the last few years compared to what Griffin was throwing to.

As stated before, the offenses both quarterbacks played in lends itself to many of the projections.

As for the racist allegation, look at Kiper's top 11 quarterbacks he has ever rated of:
John Elway
Andrew Luck
jim Kelly
Drew Bledsoe
Peyton Manning
Ryan Leaf
Vinny Testaverde
Andre Ware
Troy Aikman
Boomer Esiaison
Steve Young

Now how many of these quarterbacks had successful careers and which one didn't. When 8 of 10 were good to Hall of Fame level, where do you put Luck on that scale.

bro this has nothing to do with racism, the op might be i dont know, but he is definitely stupid.
to say a hair cut will make Blackmon do well.
he might have thrown that in to disguise his racism, but its still a pretty stupid statement on its face.
