But I enjoyed the read. He is good but does have problems. I think that the broncos or the other teams kept him he will be starting and be good.
His coaches made a bad choice. I like the article. I just don't agree with a few arguments. To say "he didn't make it in the NFL" is more of an opinion than a fact. He made it to the NFL. He was selected in the Draft. If you mean he was not successful, that would not be an accurate statement. He made it to the playoffs, and beat the Steelers. Many can argue he looked like crap in the process. And for the most part that is true. But its not about looking pretty. I've seen many QBs throw with all the right mechanics and still never see a playoff birth, or even a winning record.
Its about wins and loses, and leadership. And Tim put a check mark next to all those. He brought life back to a team that quit on them selves long before he got under center.
You put a QB under center that same year that does not have the physical attributes Tebow has, no way you make the playoffs. It was because of all of his unorthodox play that allowed him to make a difference.
And I would imagine he had many coaches, friends, fathers, uncles, pastors, etc. I'm sure he read the news and seen what the analyst were saying about him. I just think he decided he was going to do it his way regardless. And isn't that the job of NFL coaches.
To develop these young players with so much raw talent. Bill was never going to try and develop Tim. He brought him in as a possible back up.
Tebow was not going to get the back up role, and they were not going to pay to keep 3 QB. Doesn't mean Bill could not have developed him, there was just no reason to at that time.
I am not saying Tebow is starting material right now. But I would sure take him over just about any other backup in the league.
Good Article. He would be a good backup or used sparingly in like wildcat formations. But the nfl has a lot of quarterback talent. Lately when a starter goes down which is often the back up is more than capable and sometimes wins more games than the starter look at the Indianapolis Colts the Browns but still there is a need for an depth everywhere. The Dallas Cowboys desperately needed a reliable back that many other teams have. Personally I do not think the coaches along are solely to blame for his short stint in the NFL.
I think if he would have got in a system that was willing to put a quarterback coach with him as well Tebow putting his ego aside and put the work in he would still be in the league. Example of his prototype skill set in my personal opinion Big Ben. Thanks for the post very informative! An excellent general manager and coaching staff, player development, and excellent fans are some reasons for the Green Bay Packers' success.
I will detail five key reasons for the team's success. Hand size is important for a quarterback. Nearly every play has the quarterback handling the ball, and small hands mean less ball control. Quarterbacks such as Drew Brees and Russell Wilson have shown it's possible to have success at a height of 6'0" or shorter if you have huge hands.
I recap the careers of the top five quarterbacks of the NFL Draft and discuss what they are doing today. Find out why NFL teams allow punters to hold for field goals instead of quarterbacks or wide receivers.
You know it drives you crazy! A look at some offensive NFL records that will never be touched. What sets the EPL apart from other European leagues? Is it the money, the TV coverage, the players? Or could it simply be the quality of football played?
This article will set you thinking. Despite flashing in a handful of starts in his rookie season, he remained the backup quarterback in with a new head coach in place, John Fox. The Broncos started the season with a dismal record. Most of their problems were on the defensive side, and an experienced coach like Fox had little interest in trying to fix things with a young quarterback who could hardly complete passes in practice.
However, in the middle of Week 5, Fox succumbed to the public pressure and benched Orton in favor of the popular backup signal-caller.
Tebow rallied his team to make the game close in a losing effort, but he gave Fox no choice but to start his immensely popular quarterback for the rest of the way. Tebow led the Broncos to a string of miracle, come-from-behind victories that captivated the sports world.
He won games while completing as little as two passes. He scored under 10 points to win. He benefited from an almost inexplicable improvement of his defense and offensive line. Tebowmania stretched beyond the NFL universe and into pop culture around the globe. Tebow became an icon and a symbol of hope, whether it was justified or not. Tebow's biggest moment came in his playoff win against the Steelers , when he threw an yard touchdown pass to Demaryius Thomas in overtime.
If a "normal" quarterback had been behind center, the play would be forever remembered for Thomas' great catch-and-run. The Broncos' subsequent beating at the hands of the the Patriots the following week was largely forgiven by Bronco faithful. They were satisfied with the roller-coaster season Tebow had provided them. This was Tebow's world; they were just living in it.
For Tebow, this was the peak of his professional career. Yes, the Broncos managed to make the playoffs, but no team can sustain success over the long term with miracle comebacks, and Broncos president and Hall of Fame quarterback John Elway knew he needed to make a change. Elway eventually found his way out of Tebowmania by winning the Peyton Manning sweepstakes, and he shipped Tebow off to the New York Jets soon thereafter.
Wide receivers are diving for passes usually out of their reach. Running backs are making huge blocks to protect Tebow. They are going the extra mile for Tebow not because it is in their contracts but rather because they believe in who Tebow is and what he means to the team.
In 5 games Tebow has accomplished something it can sometimes take years to do: get players to believe in what you do and who you are. Every quarterback knows what to say during post-game interviews. They are taught from day one to, in defeat, always congratulate the other team and when victorious to always show respect to the opponent. Just because players know what to say doesn't mean they actually mean it. Tim Tebow, on the other hand, appears to be genuinely authentic in what he says and in what he does.
I genuinely believe what Tim Tebow says and I think most people feel that same way. As a fan that is something I truly respect. On a more important level for Tebow, I'm sure that helps establish and maintain a deep level of trust and respect with his Broncos teammates. The humility that Tebow integrates into the way he plays the game of football, is something that is hard to find in professional sports. In a league fueled by high profile contracts and marketing deals, Tebow leads with the "this isn't about me, it's about my team" approach.
While a majority of NFL quarterbacks say that, Tim Tebow lives it out not only on the field but also in his every day life. I would take an average quarterback who is confident enough to play the game not caring about what people say over a great quarterback who is always trying to prove somebody wrong, every day of the week.
Tim Tebow is right around the league average at 6 feet 3 inches. His weight of pounds is also not unbelievably large for a quarterback, but what makes that number stand out is the fact that he is pounds of pure muscle. The low-risk deal included no guaranteed money, so Tebow had to make the team to earn a dime. And that was always the uncertain part. Former and current NFL players criticized Meyer for giving Tebow a roster spot and pointed out a number of more deserving tight ends on the street.
Tebow flashed early during organized team activities and rarely dropped balls thrown his way. But once camp began and players donned full pads, Tebow faded. It quickly became clear that Tebow was less of a pass-catching option than Tyler Davis, a sixth-round selection in , and second-year pro Ben Ellefson.
