The 2011 Tim Tebow Tracking Thread

[ZoneBlitz]

Maybe the first two, but i'm not so sure about Vick, only because Vick is more of a speedy broken play/scambler type of runner, while Tebow is a more powerful runner who does his work off of designed plays.

That's what makes Tebow unique, he's not what I would call a mobile QB, he's essentially a second HB lining up at QB. He's just...different. Denver is playing single wing, it's ridiculous.

I agree. Vick would have to be used more like the Oregon offense where his option to run takes him outside. He actually ran those plays briefly while with the Falcons.

The ole Sandsuky Single Wing

Tebow is not even like a halfback. He's basically Mike Alstott with a slightly better arm. But yeah Vick is not built for the pounding that this offense requires. He's built more like a WR at 6'2, 200. Newton would absolutely shred in this system though. I don't think there's any question that had he stayed at Florida and run that offense he'd have shattered Tebow's single season marks.

all I know is Tebow gets me 15-20 fantasy points in Yahoo and the guy I drafted (Josh Freeman who Ive dropped) is avg about 4 points

And all they is WINS is what matters and what are the Broncos 3-1 with Timmy in there. Maybe with a full offseason and some work he may turn into a better passing QB, who knows

Look at your name in the quoted comment...

Hypothetical - If Tebow gets hurt mid-game, what does Denver do? Surely they can't change a gameplan up unless they've been practicing it?

Go Tebow!

IMO, Denver's coach and management are doing everything in their power to embarrass Tebow ... and he keeps winning anyway. I feel bad for Tebow. He has no chance in Denver, because their leadership there simply doesn't believe in him. It may be a stretch to say this, but sometimes I wonder if Elway fears Tebow will become a bigger legend in Denver than Elway. Whatever IT is, Tebow has IT. OK, he's not a fundamentally sound passer, but he's a winner. Like Doug Flutie before him, teams shouldn't be so quick to fit a square peg into a round hole ... just let the winners do what they do.

Quinn would wow the opposing defense with his biceps, opening up running lanes for the backs.

Didn't watching the game but I looked at the play by play.. I think at one stage in the game with the Broncos up 10-0 they had called 24 rush plays and Tebow was 0/3 in pass attempts.. Seems the coaches are sticking to a game plan and it's winning them football games - can't see it lasting too long though.

IMO, they are using this playcalling strategy to embarass Tebow. What they didn't count on was it actually working.

Again, I am not saying Tebow is the prototypical perfect QB, but the kid is a winner. Stop trying to fit a square peg into a round hole.
