It’s Time to Stop Asking Quarterback Prospects About Transitioning to the NFL Game

By now you’ve read all about how the NFL will never be the same as the Rams beat the Chiefs 54–51 in Monday night’s thriller in Los Angeles. Indeed, the college game has finally made its way to the NFL after a decade’s worth of stubbornness by The Professional Men Who Know All.

But Monday night signaled something else to me. The revolution is here, and that means it’s time to stop asking stupid questions that no longer matter in the pre-draft process to these quarterbacks.

For example, every year in Indianapolis we scribes ask the quarterbacks coming into the NFL from college spread offenses about how difficult the transition will be to playing under center.
