You mean like Cam Newton who just quit because the game is not fun anymore because now he has to become a student of the game if he wants to go back to the SB?:-)
Young talented baseball throwers on the mound(notice I use the term "thrower" instead of term "pitcher" because that is what they are at this point) often times will have immediate success in the ML because the rest of the league has not competed against this "thrower" enough times to figure him out. However, over time IF the "thrower" refuses to learn how to "pitch"(staying ahead of the hitters) then the "thrower" starts to get "lit up"(hit) more and more because the "hitter" has figured him out due to the fact the "thrower" has not evolved into a "pitcher".
This same type of occurrence happens often in the NFL with athletes who have great athletic physical skills who play the QB position. They come onto the NFL scene never to be scouted or defended at the NFL level with their unique physical athleticism initially confusing DCs. IF this great athlete with physical QB skills does not become a student of the game he will get exposed in due time by lack of good decision making in his physical play or lack thereof regardless of whether they have been to a SB or not. Cam was just fortunate enough to be that talented physically on top of having a great defense and a very easy schedule his first few years not being seen enough to carry him to a SB. It wasn't until that SB Cam got exposed BIG TIME !! Cam had never faced a defense like Wade Phillips defense and Wade knew it because he realized Cam couldn't read a defense. Cam has never been the same since that SB. Cam has been "Deer in the headlights" since that game. This is what happens when you only depend on physical talent because physical talent alone will only take you so far.
A physically talented athlete who plays the QB position is FAR different than an athlete who has evolved into an actual QB. [Reply]

He can’t read a defense. This was proven over time in San Francisco. He was benched for Blaine Gabbert. [Reply]

Big difference. Ali was a 4 time HW champ.
CK a one time SB loser who quit because the NFL game demanded he become a student of the game if he wanted to be that SB champion. He decided it was just too hard for him. So he pouted and then started pointing the finger.:-) [Reply]
