If he didn't have such an inaccurate, weak arm, he would be 11/11 with 10 touchdowns and -3 interceptions.

Kizer 3rd! Ouch!!! Still think Mahomes has a bright future and is in a great situation. We got us a good one though!
Pretty fun video. O'Brien really thinks the world of Watson. Edit: impossibles already posted in bye thread
Is any head coach going to berrate his starting QB when he knows he is being mic'd up? Call me a cynic but parts of that sounded contrived.
I don't think OB held back in Hard Knocks, and I don't think he would have thought this was any different. The Texans still get to approve of whatever gets broadcasted.
Okay? further proof that he doesn't give a damn about the mic despite how it may be construed. He doesn't sign off on the broadcast, the Texans organization does.
It's more of a threshold thing. As long as you are above a certain score your brain is capable of understanding defenses. It's not exactly rocket science. Having a high wonderlic score means nothing.
It's similar to a player's performance in the D league. You can absolutely destroy the D league and it won't mean that you'll do well in the NBA, but if you absolutely suck in the D league.....well that's concerning.
As far as I know, there's been no correlation between wonderlic scores and throwing velocity and being a successful QB. It's good info to have for scouts I guess but they need to interpret it correctly
To me it was just a case of over-evaluation of a player. They had seen all that they needed to see and yet, somehow, not enough.
