    I seriously can't help but to think,

    "So a black guy, a white guy, and a polynesian walk into the Tennessee Titans locker room..."

    hopefully the joke will end at some point.

    sensitive types need not click spoiler

    the polynesian guy asked "Did I hit him?" and the white guy said "No, but you got close enough so I could hit him with the gas can."

    How many great NFL QBs have ever been considered intelligent beyond Manning and a few others? Does Brady seem intelligent?

    We're talking about reading defenses, right? Learning a playbook? Being intelligent helps but we're not talking about splitting the atom here.

    I think if Young would have dedicated himself, he'd still be an NFL QB somewhere. Dude didn't care enough or felt it didn't matter.

    Locker's issues had nothing to do with whether or not he could read a defense. This is a guy who played under four different OCs so learned new plays and terminology almost every season.

    VY had the emotional maturity of a teenage boy. Still stuck in High School mentally.

    I disagree with the idea intelligence is what ended Young and Locker's careers. It was injuries and poor performances that sent them both packing. Youngs last 2 years in TN were hamstring after hamstring, then the meltdown. Locker's was kind of the same but with a multitude of injuries over 3 years.. Dan Marino was a dumb jock, but could make every throw, so it's not all about being book smart, see Terry Bradshaw and Eli Manning as well.

    What makes Mariota better than our last two 1st round QBs is accuracy, pocket awareness, and durability. Him being bright is a plus but not the determining factor...
