Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted March 15, 2019 4 hours ago, TimmySmith said: Tebow's career is based on 2/3 of one season. 1700 passing yards, 660 rushing. 12 ints, 6 picks. Winning 7 out of 11. He won a home playoff game. Seems like his skills were sufficient to be a productive NFL QB. Your own favorite QB, and the offense for your own favorite team is not predicated on getting the ball downfield. He averaged 123 ypg passing during that season in 11 starts. Do you want a QB who will give you 123 ypg? Don’t even talk about Brady not getting the ball downfield. Tebow was not even a 50% completion guy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s the worst average on the team and in the International League. His 53 strikeouts are also tops on the team and account for 41 percent of his at-bats. He is still on pace to have the worst Triple-A numbers of more than 1,700 players at that level since 2006 when Fangraphs began collecting data. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Id like to see him go into coaching rather than TV. He is kind of a bore. And TV people are just talking heads anyway. His character would be more useful elsewhere.

Wasn't much of a QB on the pro level but an all-time great in college and an all-time great human being. Eagles gave him a shot one year in preseason, but he just didn't have the accuracy needed. He was a good runner, but more of a plodder as a runner. Didn't have the speed needed to be a run first QB like Lamar Jackson. Lamar isn't all that accurate either, but demanded a ton of attention because of his legs. Tebow didn't pose that threat. But still love the guy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
