It's like a paint by numbers thread.

Re: Ryan Fitzpatrick Scored a 48 on his Wonderlic Test
Stephen Hawking probably scored 50 on the Wonderlic - - if he ever took it. So what...
Look folks, the Wonderlic is a test that tries to measure - inaccurately to be sure - a person's innate learning capability. That is ONE part of being a good NFL QB/player. For a QB, it is probably very important. But it is not and will never be as important as the ability to throw a football accurately with velocity and/or the ability to move around when there is pressure from the defense. A "stupid" QB would not be a good thing to have if you want to run any kind of offense that requires quick analysis of the defense and subsequent decision making. A "smart" QB would not be a good thing if he cannot throw the football. The challenge is to find one that can throw well AND is smarter than a cheese sandwich...

Re: Ryan Fitzpatrick Scored a 48 on his Wonderlic Test
Here are some answers found in the Warpath Wonderlic Test:
"Vet Minimum" "Colt Brennan" "Marcus Mason" "Build through the draft" "Colt Brennan (again)" "I would trade Jason Campbell straight up for Chris Simms"

"Cushing, Cushing, Cushing" and my favorite. "I would trade Campbell and our first and third round picks for Cutler straight up." But if you circle answer D-Snyder's lap dog, you get an extra 10 points.

Re: Ryan Fitzpatrick Scored a 48 on his Wonderlic Test
I think you meant Cutler here, and yes that'd be an answer too. LOL.

Seriously though folks- to call all these guys who score high on the Wonderlic "smart" is, um, dumb. Google "Wonderlic" and you'll see how easy they are. I'm sure I'm not the only one around here who could have come close to a perfect score in the friggin 6th grade. Walters Football Site: Wonderlic Sample Test
