The Packers are stupid

From Ben Maller: The Packers are stupid. There's no other way to put it. They have the lowest average Wonderlic score of any of the 32 teams in the National Football League, according to the Wall Street Journal and the MILWAUKEE JOURNAL-SENTINEL.

The Wonderlic Personnel Test is a standardized 12-minute 50-question problem-solving exam used by the league to evaluate players. Thousands of other businesses use it to measure applicants.

The players on the Packers' roster have an average Wonderlic score of 19.1, according to the Journal. They were just edged by the Arizona Cardinals, who averaged 19.2 and have started the season just like the Packers, 0-3. The Journal said 19.1 is the typical score for "hospital orderlies."

The Packers have nine players on their roster who scored below 14 on the test. The best score is 50.
