Are You Smarter Than An NFL Quarterback? | PTFO

- A fierce debate - about no less than the meaning of intelligence itself - has broken out in the world of football scouting, as star quarterback C.J. Stroud puts together one of the best rookie QB seasons ever... after bombing the new Wonderlic test. But can this S2 Cognition exam actually predict how your brain impacts athletic performance? Pablo puts himself to the ultimate test of mental agility, with a little help from Alex Smith - and with a LOT of expletives.

Seems like S2 would be ideal for locating elite Madden players.
One of my favorite episodes of anything all year. Good job
This is phenomenal content. This needs to go viral great job Pablo
"So Many F-ing Balls!" -Pablo Torre
great job, informative and entertaining
Favorite episode so far. Funny & informative. Great effing job!
Another great episode. 🙏
came into the office just to wear the Blue Cardigan
"JOURNALISM!!". This is a superb example of it.. Papa Le Batard will be very proud.
Alex Smith super dreamy
Alex Smith is true class!
That one question where he picks optician, with minimal hesitation and a well thought reasoning explaining that it's about "work on people" vs. the argument of "credentials" which technically both arguments are valid, and realistically each answer choice could in someway be justified as correct. This particular example shows he has the ability to make quick rational decisions while also having a more empathetic point of view with his QB leadership mentality regardless if he actually got the answer correct or not. Intelligence sometimes go beyond just logical intelligence.
Testing has NOTHING to do with possible success. My combined SAT (based on 1600) was under 1000. I am amazingly successful at my career choices. People can do even with bad test scores.
I really enjoy the Doogie Howser inspired endings.
I think you have something special with this podcast. The editing and production is very good. Definitely dig the cartoonish cut scenes lol. But the content is also very good. The research and study on the topics make them very interesting when you start parse through them with the guests. Keep it going! 🔥 content!
Quickly processing information is not the same as intelligence yet Pablo keeps saying they are measurring intelligence. That like saying a reflex is a measure of intelligence . Its not!
How are you defining intelligence, Pablo? The study of intelligence includes varied theories. Test construction has a shaky history in terms of reliability, validity, social/cultural relevance, intersection with disability. Very interesting episode.
That's what I'm saying. He keeps saying intelligence over and over when this test clearly measures speed or reflexes. That's not even close to being intelligence. Two people coming up with the same answer but one doing it faster doesn't mean the test taker who does it faster is more intelligent. This is what pissed me off about the owner of the test. He explained this on a podcast but still let CJ take all this heat about his intelligence and people calling him dumb when the test doesn't even test for smarts at all.

These podcast episodes are tremendous. So unique. I loved this one. Keep em coming Pablo!
I've worked in the personality and cognitive assessment industry for about 17 years. I can say the Wonderlic assessment is a solid tool for measuring GMA (general mental aptitude). It seems most of the recent research findings suggest an organization is better off measuring the cognitive ability potential areas that are most highly related to the job for the which the person is being considered. It is also true access to top tier education in your formative years better prepares one for these types of tests. And let's keep in mind this is only one form of "potential." Some people leverage their potential and others throw it away. This was very cool shit. I'm confident I would be destroyed by the S2 test.
That S2 commercial sounded scary from the perspective of that they’re talking about people like Pokémon, like they’re not even real. I know that can lead into a deeper dive but just gave me the chills a bit hearing the advertisement
the most impressive thing this show has done is slowly make me like Cortes
I'm surprised that IQ tests weren't at least mentioned in the conversation (other than the reference to bell-shaped distribution)
Kenny Pickett led two game-winning drives in back to back weeks last year.
An optician, optometrist, and ophthalmologist all work around the eye though, a dentist is teeth and mouth.
Just shows the test is looking for another level of analysis.
It's not intelligence it's fast decision making two different things
Exactly. Pablo is wrong by even calling it a measure of intelligence.
We sure will find out
The founder is talking out of both sides of his mouth. As a statistician, statistic anomalies are viewed as that, statistical anomalies. Him saying he cares about the anomaly is bs. Only reason he cares is cause stroud is showing the reality of this tests inaccuracy. The other funny part is how on one hand he’s trying to say how he’s happy to see an anomaly when he sells based off the probably not improbable.
Why wasn’t Alex Smith in the description?
isn't it just smarter to pick Tony Romo's brain?
I think caring is the most important factor. Caring about reading defenses and not about tracking shapes might impact it just like reading comprehension about the history of drive-in theaters will vary from some topic you actually care about.
yes.
32:12 I call BS. Testing cannot measure ability on the field. He's protecting his business.
This dude came out hot and confident until questions came and now it’s about military and policing??? Then wtf are we even doing this test for. IT’S JUST FOOTBALL. This is a sales pitch gone wrong lol.
It’s incubating
Ten toes lol
I need to see them give pro gamers the S2
My answer was dentist because the others concern eyes.
Pablo tea lemon Honey and bourbon that will do the trick
The neuroscientist ceased being objective when he decided to sell to the NFL, in my opinion. The NFL doesn't buy nuance so he didnt sell it.

Wunderlick the racist test (most test on intelligence are)
...
😅😅😅😅
Either stop with the bleeps or stop cursing...just pick one, please, for our auditory sanity
I couldn't give a shit either way but I hope they keep them in because y'all keep bitchin 😂
Is your name on the show?
Their beep noise could chill out for sure.
Get over it
At 4 am, beeping and cursing go hand-in-hand at my house.
