Are You Smart Enough To Be An NFL Quarterback? 

You get to write it down word for word what do you mean 🤣🤣

@@colekenley5894 Waiters will swear its the hardest. Just a bunch of sensitive people getting their feelings hurt for being yelled at.

That’s not gonna cut it

You gotta rip it too

@@Operator-Nova You wouldn’t remember shit

Yeah ok

Facts because Matt Ice is trash 🚮

Seems to work for most teams xD

Except Matt Ryan has no Julio now

​@@mrhinderance4279and now he's not looking so hot

@@DrFatesOrder bruh Matt Ryan was literally never good in the first place. He just had 2 badass receivers for the better half of his career that made him look good

Lol

This is hard, here’s why… it’s just hard guys I’m not gonna explain it fully but with this vague diluted example, boy I’m telling you it’s HARD! Basically what he did lmao.

Lmaooooo for real

Let's take a peek on this whiteboard, oop nah screw it, your tiny brain wouldn't cope.

@@JesseGMan7 he drew something on the whiteboard and when switches from a play example to talking about headset timers makes it seem like he explained something it was just cut for some reason

Literally gave you an example

Lol

Hahaha.. I was sitting here like, "man, of course we don't know that . You ain't give me time to learn it".

Exactly! There are a lot of dumbass NFL QB’s

Missing the point, this is directed to fans saying they would’ve done otherwise in a messed up play. And keep in mind their are 100+ plays in the playbook that have to be learn and adjustments in field of play, with 4 months to learn this. Cause what if the coordinator and HC left. Then you have to start over again smart ass.

Bro if my team is spending 400 mil on a qb k expect them to do good I don’t hav to be smart enough to do tho

Hey I'm a Pittsburgh Steeler fan good looking bro you're right he hits like a tank!!!

Exactly

Getting hit is the easy part. Not dying on impact now that's the game

Intelligence comes into play when actually making the throw in order to make the right read

Yes but you have to memorize and judge for yourself what the best line of action is depending on the defensive setup and movement all in real time and on a second's notice.

To this extent it is. They have to do all this within the play clock. Actually look at every successful nfl qb that throws the ball well consistently. They’re all very smart and articulate men. It’s not an easy Job. Concepts aren’t memorization you actually have to understand them to play the position. Look at Tua. At the surface he’s talented. Not bad at throwing the ball. But he’s got the lowest wonderlic (football knowledge test) score of any starting qb right now and it shows.

Kinda.

Ok so you remember the play call. Now break down what each position has to do on that play call just by memorizing it???

He’s a nfl qb coach

Nice try

You don't know who this is, do you?

@@thatoneguy9473 the point is ofc we not gonna know cause we aren't professionals who spend hours training for stuff like this

He was an actual NFL QB.

Bro that’s not the play that’s the cadence the play is in the huddle

Big difference between practice during the week and the 35 seconds in between each play in the NFL. Thats what he means.

@@_DropTheMike as a former college coach this is why you practice game senecios and do simulated games in practice. Once you know the plays and rep them enough by the end of every season we where well over 100 plays in our book with things to check into and out of depending on the defense looks we would get. This is also why game planning is important for the expected and unexpected.

@@nickhowser7262 yes and that's College imagine NFL Playbook

As you're sitting on RU-vid watching him talk about it basically saying they should know because they have practice? You're the kind of tool he's talking about who don't appreciate it

Then go be a NFL Quarterback if it seems that easy.

So thats where failed qb work at.

QB in the nfl is harder

Now I'm just remembering the Jane's dad in Breaking Bad. He shouldn't have had that beer.

Pilot landing and hope that air controller is off duty after the beer.

@@mr.twenty-ten6319 your joking right?

Fr. They have many years to learn how to call plays.

Lol it's like he's implying that the coaches are just making up brand new plays in the spot in the middle of the game

Right? My first thought exactly. They dont even give first year qb's the whole playbook. They work it in over 2 offseasons. So they have 2+ years to learn these plays. And its not even the number of plays, there is a system so most are redundant or repetitive. Not saying its not extremely difficult but given 2+ years to learn im positive everyone could. Specially if thats their only job. I mean med students learn far more complex concepts while working a full time job.

Fr. You don’t have all day during a game but you certainly have all day at practice and outside of it. These dudes entire lives are football at that level. I’d learn whatever they told me if I was getting millions to do it.

You idiots. He’s talking about the fans who don’t go to practice and learn these plays. So for you to sit on the couch and criticize what you would of done on a given play is just ridiculous. The fact people agree with comment is comical.

Yea because everyone just has 8-12 hours of free time a day

​@@corkythehippomanI mean it's literally their job so they absolutely do have 8-12 hours a day to focus on it.

@@jeremyb3991 no, 8 hours to sleep + 2-3 hour practice= 11 hours. + 12 hour training leaves an hour to eat, talk to family, etc. even just 19 hours leaves only 5 hours to travel home, hangout with family, and eat. That is not even close to enough time. Also most coaches now just assign a number to a play and that number is on a play sheet on the qbs wrist, so they don’t need the name memorized, juts routed, o line assignments and what is happening. Also just the first part of a play only tells you the formation and maybe the primary or slot recievers assignments, which could have a million different conversations after so this guy is exaggerating

@corkythehippoman6529 this guy has an 8 hour a day job. This guy doesn't get paid as much as these professionals to sit down and study for a few hours. And then some days they play. What do you you think adulthood is dude? There are people with 3 jobs, and you act like these players do less than them.

@@corkythehippoman Knock it the fk off. There are MFks that work 10-12 hours a day for 4-6 days and do all that other shit in between for $20+ an hour. Besides, do you know how long 8 hours is studying a playbook? That's why the top players always meet and go over the shit together, or the HOF QBs had meetings with their offense often, joe. 8 hours is long as fk.

Yep they say, play 36, its on there wrist

Not every qb wears the wristband. Usually only new coach/ new qb to a system they do that. Derek Carr doesnt wear one, russ didnt when he was in seattle, peyton never did. Russ been wearing one this season. And brady tbh i think has always worn a wristband. But id say more dont than do. That ive paid attention too and noticed.

@@henrycavillsrealmustache3553 Peyton definitely used a wristband on the colts. Tom Brady has used one his entire career. It baffles me why more QB’s don’t use a wristband, it’s just more efficient than calling out the entire play over the headset and gives the QB more time at the line to check coverages and set protections.

Well yea.. But not every play is on there and not all use the play sheet wristbands.. Not to mention play 36 (or any number) is just the basic design of the play with multiple variations

Nooo you can't do that! It takes thousands of hours in the film room in order to become a professional quarterback! Hahaha wrist coach goes 69 banana yellow go go girls 81 50!

You still need to have a good football IQ

You have no idea how many plays there are to be memorized. Plus, the QBs aren’t just sitting in a classroom studying for months. They still need to stay in shape, go to training camp and practices, work on their mechanics, etc.

@@randomstuff508 no you don't. The topic is calling out plays. Zero to do with football IQ. This is just memorizing and remembering the play associated with its name. It's not that hard.

@@tornado7205 they play once a week. Remembering plays isn't that hard.

@@blowc1612 lol right. And for the other 6 days they just sit back and do nothing right?

Me Am Smart!

It’s not just the understanding of terms, it’s the ability to remember them all in a short period of time, then to make sure all your guys know what’s happening, and then to actually perform it. Most people can’t do that

The disney-everyone-will-be-happy-and-win-in-the-end morale he wanted to push: “Being a quarterback is really, really hard work and so no fan should ever be mean and criticize any QB for any reason and every one in the stands should cheer on both teams all the time because we all deserve to be happy, happy, happy and humans are kind and spots are kind and people are truly kind on the inside so be nice to be, please!”

@@elrealamericanhero he didn't say don't be mean, he said next time you critique at least know wtf is going on, cause 90% of fans have no idea what a playbook even looks like lmao. I can name a thousand fans that never played a down and they are the most ignorant and say the dumbest shit, so I feel what he's saying.

@@Jonathan-A.C. thats called conversations though. We learn thousands of words, our brains are made to do that

Lmao

Lol

fake it til you make it

Also Favre, "What's a Nickel defense?"

@@krzykris came to say this but you beat me lol

Facts, I remember him saying he would forget the play walking up to the line and would just run around til he saw someone “open”

Farve is a once in a lifetime anomaly that we won’t see again a QB that started for 16 years with one franchise while throwing 300 INTs in the process won’t ever happen again

Yeah for real lol, if I was offered millions of dollars and given months if not years to memorize this i think I could do it lol

JUST READ OUT OF A BOOK AND HAVE KIDS FILL OUT A A,B,C,D QUIZ basic . make a split decision under pressure with risk of injury or letting your team down. memorization is just one step needed to become a quarterback.

@@piougar that isnt elite teaching.

@@Augfordpdoggie It's what you get from our schools programs. Perhaps elite teaching should be the standard. but it's not.

no

It's not just the words. ..lol. its what they mean. Each of those words is a Key assignment to the formation, blocking assignment, RB rout/block, reciever routs ect. As a reg. Pos. They only need to listen for their PART of the phrase....but QB has to know what it ALL means to be sure his guys are in right place and run the right play/routs ect.

@@chrispeoples3078 exactly and that's just one play out of at least 50

@@chrispeoples3078 even if there was thousand words to remember and know the meaning of, it’s still not that hard. Players get the entire offseason to learn the playbook. They watch film constantly, study plays, practice them etc. if you were getting paid even a Million/season (which is crazy low for an NFL QB) I’m sure you’d do just fine remembering plays.

@@robertlambert8801 it’s literally the easiest part of the job. The hard part is being born genetically and financially gifted enough to be able to waste your whole life playing a children’s game.

@@jiggzstarr wow… 50 whole plays? That’s gotta be so hard to remember. If only they had decades of practice and all the time and money in the world to learn them.

😭😭😭😭I swear people hilarious

Calm yourself down

Dwyane Wade hahaha what r u gonna say I’m wrong? Go watch tuas press conference where he admits to not knowing the plays that he ran/running plays he knew weren’t gonna work because he didn’t know how to audible. I don’t pull things out of thin air. Tua said these things himself.

@@plfo8315 you literally just proved this guys point in the video

CoolRayquazaGaming I’m aware.. I’m trying to show that Tua can’t do what he is describing.

Haha same!

That's completely different

I remember words to songs that Google doesn't know 😬🤔😂

Ya but as the qb you gotta know what each one of those words mean, cause each word can mean something different to every position on the field depending on the order, the formation ect. Then you gotta know what to do when the balls snapped

Yeah I’m sorry but “jet sweep to the right on 2” or “32 hb dive to the strong side” is definitely a lot easier to remember than this 😂

@@essayegg6990 I was talking about experience from years of training. For instance: you don’t walk into a dojo for the first time in your life and start training as a black belt. You start from the bottom my guy.

Patrick Henry football training is different man. You’re learning whatever your particular coach wants you to learn that year. Most players aren’t like Brady. These guys are human and usually don’t do everything they can to excel. Some players value the golf course and women over hard work but their talent still takes them to the nfl. Unfortunately there are no shortcuts to success in the league so that’s where most of these guys fall off.

@@plfo8315 I get what you’re saying but you’re missing the point I’m trying to make. Palmer is stating that it’s not easy being a quarterback in the NFL. Well it’s not easy being a doctor or a mathematician, or a physicist. If you tried your hand at any of these professions without years of studying then yea, it’s not easy. These guys, regardless of being on different teams or under different coaches, have dedicated most of their lives to the playbook. Who’ll do better in the nfl? An average guy who’s never seen an nfl playbook his whole life, or someone who’s been studying his ass off with the playbook for years?

@@patrickhenry9715 That doesn’t make it easy. Plenty of people play football from peewee to college and are still unable to play in the league. Same thing with becoming a doctor or any other really hard professions. People study and train their whole lives for a lot of things and are still unable to make it.

Stop 🧢 🧢 🧢 ing you think just because you were in a dangerous situation that means you can play a HIGHLY skilled position?! FKK outta here with that BS

Facts

What’s your spiral like? Probably still would be a trash qb

@@Jay-rg5mt I don’t need a tight spiral I would be a mobile QB like Vick or Lamar so that makes up for any lack of throwing abilities

@@cam4001 you’d be the first nfl qb who can’t throw then I guess.

It gets more complicated at the next level boss

So you got the part of the playcall where is called a 2nd play just in case they need to switch right?

@@gabeortizz7006 ik that’s why I said I’ve got nothing on these guys, I’m just saying that when it’s your full time job it’s very doable

A lot of weekly adjustments usually is why it gets so wordy. Base plays but then they have to add stuff to it to adjust for whatever they think defense will bring.

@@gabeortizz7006 you know from personal experience don’t ya now? Boss.

And now you work at McDonald’s

Lol carson

It's Jordan but close enough

It cuts 15 seconds until play click runs out and coaches won’t have the play ready immediately

This is a ridiculously stupid comment.

1000%. When I say the qb is shit and can't read the game im not comparing him to Joe blow down the street, im comparing him to other professional NFL players.

he did make it to the nfl so

Yeah and how did it work out for him??

@@DubbzRHandle they never make it because there are only so many spots, not because it's incredibly hard. That's bullshit.

@@DubbzRHandle facts

Go ahead, wont get you anywhere tho. 0 benefit or upside

Lmao

It’s hundreds and hundreds in dozens and dozens of combinations , you ever heard of a PLAYBOOK? It’s an entire book not 10 words buddy along with audibles and the jobs of the other 10 starters , where the line blocks , 4 different routes , where they’ll be , when they’ll be there , who’s covering them , if you have any stunts or fakes , where your running back is going , where you’re pressure is coming from wether that’s a great lineback or d end on the left or a great nose tackle up the middle , you’ve gotta read what zones the defense are in , if they’re blitzing or not or if they’re playing man , what down and how many yards you need , the time you have left , prevent penalties, avoid getting hit or sacked , calculate how far and fast you need to throw the ball at what trajectory and without missing , ALL of that and much more in less than 4 seconds at the speed of light practically and that just for one play and you may run 30 or 40 different ones in a game easily, you’re a chump for this comment lmao most of those guys work harder in a week than you or I do in a month their workouts would put the average guy in a trip to the hospital and that time after work that you get to relax and spend watching Netflix and drinking beer they have to spend studying playbooks and watching film doing physical therapy and meal plans , they have to meet with trainers all hours of the day some players even have their trainers live with them ... I can go on but if you don’t get the point by now then you can’t be helped

If being a quarterback is easy why don't you do it?

used to

Exactly, this guy could of made a video on this but he did it the wrong way, these qb’s spend countless hours trying to learn these things

Ran to the sideline and talked to each other, or had another player run the play into the huddle. The plays were WAY less complicated though.

What's wrong with title?

@@Billabongbabalog nothing is. This guy is just salty that his couch quarterbacking is actually stupid and that is iq is no higher than that of his mothers, which at her peak was around 40.

*An NFL* you only use an when the next letter is a vowel. The correct version is *a NFL

@@montaga3194 That’s not how it works. Use of “an” and “a” is not based off anything actually logical, it’s literally decided based on which one sounds better. If you actually speak out, “an NFL” and, “a NFL”. The latter sounds much worse. The correct version is “an NFL”. To prove it, there are tons of words that start with a vowel that still use “a”, for example, university, you would say, “a university” because “an university” doesn’t sound right.

lol “34 Power” where the fullback leads the 3 back to the 4 hole is a little bit easier than an nfl play

@@chris77jay77 so they have to memorize a handful more of interchangeable words. Anyone that isn't disabled can do this. Sure someone with higher iq will do better, this is the case with any position, but let's not pretend that that only a few minds in the world are qualified.

@@OnlyInaWorldsoCold I didn't say only a few minds were qualified. You, however, did say that 12 year olds do this every summer.

@@chris77jay77 I'm obvs being hyperbolic and yes I agree, everyone is entitled to an opinion. However his title is something like, are you smart enough to be a quarterback. My argument is, every person that isn't disabled is.
