    I had to quit about halfway through it. He had one pass where he avoids the rush, moves up into the pocket, and makes the most hideous side armed toss downfield that isn't in the same zip code of the receiver (I think?) he was throwing to. I'm glad I wasn't drinking anything at that moment. 

  • Well... the Wonderlic numbers are in and I was wrong...

    Is there a recount procedure?

    I've looked up and the average mark is 24 for QBs. Average for the most clever guys on the field, offensive linemen, is 26. 

    While other QBs' mark is good, Lamar Jackson's is very low. In the floor of the stats for Wonderlic, the janitors score an average of 14 points. Also that's a great mark for Allen.

    Oh, and SB winning quaterbacks of the last decades posted an average of 30.7. Here's the list:

    Eli Manning 39

    Aaron Rodgers 35

    Tom Brady 33

    Drew Brees 28

    Russell Wilson 28

    Joe Flacco 27

    Ben Roethlisberger 25

    and through it all, I keep my humility and grace. Did I mention that Carson Wentz had a 40?

    Although, I did go to the Reb Tevye school of dancing....

    But Wentz is a good QB.

    I think that Josh Allen has been related to the farm world only by the broad side of a barn. And his relationship has been almost unexistant 😉

  • nope. His family had a farm. Read up on him. They played different sports, and he also went and worked a lot on his family's farm.

    I"m sure they had barns.

  • Josh Allen had a game where his completion percentage matched his wonderlic score.

  • lol.

    that was Oregon, I guess. They, as a team, were bigly outmatched in talent.

    Here are what some of Allen’s peers had to say about him.

     

    Boise State linebacker Leighton Vander Esch, whose Broncos played against Allen twice: “I love Josh. I think he’s a great player. He’s super athletic, he’s a big dude, he can run. He’s good at evading pressure and getting out of situations in the pocket. He’s a hard dude to bring down, generally. You’ve gotta give it to him. He can sling the ball. He can put it pretty much wherever he wants it. You guys saw that. The dude’s impressive. He’s athletic.”

    Iowa cornerback Josh Jackson, who intercepted Wyoming in the 2017 season opener: “He’s a really good quarterback, really good strong arm. And I think he’ll be able to fit well with any team in the NFL.”

    Southern California quarterback Sam Darnold, who is training with Allen in San Clemente, California: “That’s awesome competing with Josh. We’ve become real good friends over the past couple months. Also Kyle Allen, who’s also training with us, has been amazing as well. It’s been really fun. Me and Josh have really enjoyed becoming closer. I’m not sure (how we compare). I think that’s up for you guys to decide, but me and Josh get along really well. It’s good to compete with each other but also hang out with each other and just get to know one another.”

    Florida defensive tackle Taven Bryan, who is from Casper: “It’s awesome, I’m really happy for the dude, he had a really great season. He’s got a heck of an arm, honestly. He throws well, a really pretty ball. I’m happy for him and wish him the best of luck.”

    Boise State receiver Cedrick Wilson, who caught a touchdown from Allen at the Reese’s Senior Bowl: “When I saw him throw it (in the 2016 Boise State-Wyoming game), I think he threw a comeback to the field, and I was like, ‘Oh, he’s got an arm.’ And then just knowing his background, knowing that he’s been working, it was good to see him out there playing. Obviously, they took the win. That was the sad part.”

    Nebraska quarterback Tanner Lee, who competed with Allen at the Senior Bowl and roomed with him at the Combine: “He’s really cool to get to know. He’s a really nice guy. So just through this whole process, you get to be friends with a lot of guys. He’s extremely talented. He’s got a cannon of an arm. So, he’s been really fun to work with and get to know.”

    Toledo quarterback Logan Woodside, who participated with Allen at the Manning Passing Academy: “He’s become a really good friend of mine. We kept in touch throughout the season, and I’m excited for him.”

    Central Michigan tight end Tyler Conklin, who played against Allen in the Potato Bowl and caught a touchdown from him at the Senior Bowl: “He’s a great dude. He’s going to have a great career. He’s a one-of-a-kind talent, obviously.”

    He probably should've practiced hitting the broad side of them, then. Would've came in handy

    nah. wooden barns are dent-free. Now, aluminum siding barns, sure, they dent. But not wooden barns.

    Maybe if you back your combine into it, you might leave a scratch....

    Now, if you had rosen, he's be afraid of the barn and any critters in it. And if he did hit the barn with a football,

    it would bounce back and give him a concussion and some banged up extremity. Then he would hate all barns, and

    whine and bitch about wanting Congress to ban barns....

    Not all barns... just military-grade barns in civilian hands.

    Aren't you the person who gets on his soapbox and whines about people sticking to talking about football, and to leave politics out of it?

    But obviously your childish hatred of Rosen has nothing to do with politics, as can be seen above.
