Heard this morning that Tebow scored a 22 (Clausen was 23, McCoy was 25 and Bradford was around 30?). Eh, I don't know, I see the value. The questions aren't hard, it's more about how quickly do you process. At times the way it "appeared" that Tebow went through his progressions, these relative scores don't surprise me.

I just read this...I didn't know much about the test...

Tebow's low Wonderlic score doesn't necessarily spell doom for his NFL career, though. Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb only got 14 right, while Hall of Famers Dan Marino and Jim Kelly both scored 15.

don't get me wrong, it doesn't spell doom. a good and consistent system can make the decision making process a lot easier and therefore faster on the fly. But a good D coordinator can create enough confusion that it makes it difficult for anyone who isn't really quick on the processing. Tim's fallback has always been his legs. Can't read all the progressions before the rush get there? Just run baby. Gonna be harder at the next level for sure.

My current employer had me take the Wonderlic when I interviewed. I never did find out my score, but they hired me.
