Look, all the physical gifts in the world will not make up for the fact that NFL QBing's most important muscle is the 8" between a QBs ears.

Jacoby Brissett, IMO, is a perfect example of that. He had every physical skill in the world but I am convinced that his problem was that he made decisions just 0.1 of a second slow. However, when you add up all the tasks that are needed to deliver a perfect NFL strike, those tenths of a second added up to where he was consistently delivering the ball a half second late and in the NFL, that gives defenders time to adjust.

AR, again IMO, does not have the mental traits needed to be a top NFL QB. Perhaps he will prove me wrong if allowed to go to a team who has an expereinced starter and allowed to sit for a season or three (same as both Aaron Rodgers and Jordan Love) and then be able to come out and show us we were wrong and he was right.

But, I don't think that is going to happen. Right now, AR is bad at football.
