I guess he can keep AB company then?

I don't read too much into these scores, mostly because players like Jim Kelly and Dan Marino scored even worse than Rivers.

lol.

they give the test to everyone IIRC but the only results people care about are the ones from QBs, MLBs, Safetys etc. ya know, positions that require high football intelligence.

however I don't care about the results at all. most project Keith Rivers to be their OLB anyway, including us.

In Marino's defense, Dan was high as a kite when he took it.

Are you intentionally trying to stir the pot and turn this thread to something it isn't?

I'm glad you decided to edit.

When COACHES start taking the test, I'll start paying attention.
