The stars are mostly stars because they have incredible genetics and enough brain to learn how to play football. You can’t teach someone to be Randy Moss or JJ Watt.

Some guys are brilliant and innovative and can get by (or even shine) while being less talented physically. Some of these are the types who would make good coaches. These are the vast minority of stars, though.

There are plenty of great minds that just never had the body to make it to the NFL, let alone become a superstar.

what do you mean the last quarter century only goes back to the late 90s?

oh fuck. it finally happened. I’m old.
