it's of no solace to me that Red was better than Troy at algebra and biology 30 years ago, because none of it has translated to winning football games.
athletes are held to a lower standard compared to the general student population. was he genuinely smart or just "smart for an athlete"? and no honest person who has met Red and Belichick (a modern day genius and innovator) would come away with the impression that Red was sharper. that's just...
Why? Because he went to Princeton? And why is he consistently out-coached by rivals who never went to the Ivy league? Is there a Cowboy fan alive who wouldn't take Jimmy, who matriculated at poor old Arkanasas, over Red?
Very few kids right out of college are ready to play at the pro level vs. grown ass men, but the future has to start sometime. And Goff or Wentz would create more excitement and put more butts in the seats than a journeyman like Brian Hoyer.
they won't. with Manziel about to depart and no veteran QB in the wings, they need a pro-ready QB who can come in and play right away. that ain't Wentz.
