The 2011 Tim Tebow Tracking Thread

[Bear Pand]

First off it is a competition based only on performance, that's why Brady Quinn looks like he will be the 2nd string QB. All this BS buzz about Adam Weber being a better player than Tebow is ridiculous. All it is is crappy reporters trying to stir the pot more. For god's sake the Broncos haven't even officially named a second string QB. When the season is all said and done, all three (Orton Quinn Tebow) QB's will have taken snap in games and Weber will be on the practice squad.

Who gets more touches, Tim Tebow or Brad Smith?

I read an article on CNNSI.com today that said there's a chance Tebow might be released outright because they can't find a trade partner. Unreal.

Brad Smith, he is more of a "slash" player. Tebow's primary position in the NFL (at this point) is QB. I don't see him being used as a WR or TE, more like a "wildcat" and short yardage/red zone QB. That being said I think Tebow will score more TD's than Brad Smith this season!

 

[FlawLeSs]

he would end up on a team in florida quicker than the release papers would hit the desk

why? do the dolphins, bucs or jags need male cheerleaders?

:runaway:OMG QB's GETTING SHUFFLED AROUND IN THE PRESEASON SO THEY CAN GET REPS WITH THE 2ND TEAM. AHHHH IT'S NEVER BEEN DONE OR HEARD OF BEFORE! ANARCHY

:runaway:

 

that was all sarcasm in case u didnt catch it

 

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

The Jaguars had no interest in him when he was coming out.

I think a smart team (Patriots, Ravens, teams like that) could find good use for Tebow as a Jim Jensen type player.

"Let's be very clear about this," ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter told 850KOA in a radio interview, "the Denver Broncos are keeping Tim Tebow." As many Bronco fans know, Schefter is the ultimate insider when it comes to the NFL, so you can take his word for it.

^yea, b/c they have too much money invested in him, and no teams are willing to play ball... No team is going to trade for a third stringer who will be getting $8 million this year...

I really think the Broncos never were trying to trade him, it was just the National media trying to blow the 3rd preseason game out of proportion.

John Fox on the Yahoo article... Check out the link to the short vid, Fox sounds pretty confident no one making personnel decisions in the Broncos front office feels the way Mike Silver reported.

When asked about the anonymous source cited in Mike Silver's Yahoo! article, John Fox opined that maybe it was the chef.

"We hold Tim in high regard. I think he's got a bright future in this game. He's playing the hardest position I know in the NFL and maybe all of sports and he is progressing fine. He'll get more opportunities in games as we go.....Tim's doing just fine."

Boomer Esiason opens a can of Hateraid on Tebow today:

"[Tebow] can't play. He can't throw. I'm not here to insult him. [This is always the telltale sign that insults are imminent. -- CC] The reality is he was a great college football player, maybe the greatest college football player of his time. But he's not an NFL quarterback right now. Just because he's God-fearing, and a great person off the field, and was a winner with the team that had the best athletes in college football, doesn't mean his game is going to translate to the NFL.

What Josh McDaniels saw in him God only knows. Maybe God does know — because the rest of us don't."

Joe Montana Defends Timmy T on the Dan Patrick show!

Montana commented on the controversy around Tim Tebow. He thinks that the team shouldn’t worry about changing his throwing style.

“If you change the thing that has made the guy, you take away from his ability to play the game,” Montana said. “If you can throw it accurately and on time, I don’t care what your delivery looks like.”

Montana and Dan talked about the fact that Tebow has more expectations because he was a first-round pick. Montana said that he might have had a longer leash because he was a third-rounder. Montana said it took a year for him to learn what the offense was supposed to do. And Montana said that defenses are even more complex now.

If the Dolphins were smart and wanted to sell out games that didn't involve the Jets, Patsies or Giants, they would grab Tebow in a heartbeat. For a 3rd string QB on a 2nd rate team, it's amazing how A)he gets so much hate, B)his jersey STILL outsells everyone else's (btw, that's NFL wide), and C)people line up to see him.

I know...he's totally lol worthy.

 

[Philly Diehard]

The Dolphins might be selling out seats if they'd snag him, but they wouldn't be winning games with him.. He's not the answer if they were smart as you'd say they would be to potentially be trading a high draft pick for him.

But he sucks at pro football. No smart team would acquire him.

According to ESPN The Zone 93.1 FM the Broncos have placed QB Tim Tebow on the trade block.

The Broncos recently named Kyle Orton their starter this season and demoted Tebow to 3rd string in the depth chart behind Brady Quinn.

Some members of the Broncos organization even gone to say to Mike Silver of Yahoo! Sports that Tim Tebow is the fourth-best QB in training camp behind Adam Weber who is "flat out better".

Tebow was the Broncos first round pick in the 2010 draft by former head coach Josh McDaniels who is now the OC for the Rams.

LOL, Welcome to yesterday AM...Wow I didn't know it took more than 24 hours to get news to the east coast!

In case you missed it this is what a real credible NFL insider has to say:

"Let's be very clear about this," ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter told 850KOA in a radio interview, "the Denver Broncos are keeping Tim Tebow." As many Bronco fans know, Schefter is the ultimate insider when it comes to the NFL, so you can take his word for it.

Also here's the head coach John Fox with his thoughts:

"Kyle has had 19 passes, Brady's had 30 and Tim's had nine," Fox said. "So in fairness to Tim, we need to get that total up whether that's this week or next week."

Fox has brushed off the rounds of criticism levied at Tebow in recent days. In particular, he mocked the anonymous quote in a Yahoo! Sports report that said a "highly knowledgeable member of the organization" believed Tebow would be the fourth-string QB in an honest competition.

"It could have been the chef," Fox said of the unnamed source. "He sees the players every day."
