Because his arm sucks.


Disecting NFL defense's at the line of scrimmage is extremely difficult, let alone knowing all the checks, line calls, audibles, etc.

He won't be able to hack it. I can tell you right now.

Like football IQ? Because Winston has it. They don't need you to be an honor student. It's why Fitzpatrick will never be Brett Favre.


The reason why Ryan fricking Fitzpatrick starts in the NFL is because of his intelligence and football IQ.

If he had any assemblance of a strong arm or even escapability, he would be an all-pro.

This may be tangential to the point, but why pick Brett Favre as your model of football IQ? The guy was a dumbass in a lot of ways. He won the Super Bowl because he had two pro bowl receivers to throw to and a defense led by one of the greatest linemen of all time.

You obviously don't watch him play. he does that exceptionally well for a college quarterback. That is perhaps his biggest strength.

Agreed. JW has av extremely high football IQ. It's often sited by scouts in their evaluations.

Plus he is one of those guys who seems to love the game

Brett wasn't the sharpest knife in the drawer, but the dude knew how to play the game.

Count me in that camp, too. JW "gets" the game of football. And from all reports, he is the same way with baseball. The guy has a 1.08 ERA in 33 innings pitched.

Makes me wonder if he can't pull off the two-sport thing. But as others have said, JW's character issues may get in his way.

People thought Larry Bird was a total dumbass because of his speech.

Don't judge the guy by his cadence and syntax - judge him by his play.

He has a lot of positive attributes, but there are some serious negative that came along with them. For example, he holds the NFL record in interceptions (by a lot).

I'm calling Brett Favre a dumbass because he did a lot of dumbass things on the football field. I think you're just looking to argue with somebody.

No.

I don't care to argue.

And maybe you can leave the conversation.

But it's not a secret on this board, the SEC Rant, etc...

Everytime Winston is talked about on TD...it's his speech and he's stupid.

That there have been hundreds of posts about Winston being a dumbass because of the way he speaks.

There's been a lot of racial mockery...and you know that (given your post count) on this site.

OK well I was referring to Favre, not Winston. Time to relax, buddy.
