Representing Data - NFL edition
Posted by Joel Witmer on July 21, 2008
The visual representation of data (or ideas) is a pet interest of mine, so here is an interesting image of average Wonderlic scores by football position.
The Wonderlic is a modified IQ test given to NFL players, where a 20 Wonderlic score roughly corresponds to a 100 IQ score.
Notice that the positions that are the most cognitively demanding are on the offensive line. So while the NFL adage that the closer one plays to the line the smarter one needs to be is true, the stereotype about the bruising, dumb jock takes a bit of a hit.
