Neat article at the NFP on QB processing speed.

I believe Tarvarris Jackson has a very slow processing speed. _________________ "It's the same old Jay," Woodson told ESPN afterward. "We just need to be in position. Jay will throw us the ball." |

Nice, I just started reading Blink yesterday, and this touches on how we make unconscious snap decisions when situations require. When conscious preparation enters the unconscious snap decision-making, that's when a QB will excel. I guess how well this adaptation takes place dictates how good the QB will be.
Maybe the combine will someday test for adaptation speed. _________________

That is where my thinking was going too.
A great deal of the position really comes down to decision making, and if there is a black and white (or even a better) way of determining/testing that ability- why not. _________________
