EDIT: some people expressing my same thoughts are in the other thread. In short, please end this discussion
Is there no Gators or NFL forum where your opinion might be welcomed?

Always glad to help.
Some shallow, fair weather fans that think he is God. How unsurprising.

Well he did post this in the sports forum...;)
We already have a running QB that cannot pass downfield. If anybody evaluated Tebow honestly, they would see he has many shortcomings. Watch the game vs. Tennessee. As an NFL quarterback, he was terrible.
True. My apologies.
I have heard this debate ad nauseum. Not his fault.

Correct, he honestly looked afraid to pass downfield, as the Vols defense was quite strong and had good chances of picking it off.
What Tennessee on Saturday is what every NFL team would do but with better athletes. There are defensive ends in the NFL that are just as good an athlete as Tebow is.

I hear ya, there's a few posts and threads I would like to never have to see again as well....

For a franchise QB that is playing right now, I'd honestly look away from Timmy. Colt McCoy from Texas, Sam Bradford at OU, Jevan Snead at Ole Miss are just a few that are better "true" QBs. Tebow would be better as a RB or something of the sort.
Why would the Jags want a QB who against Tennessee ran the same play 75% of the times...the option run or run up the middle in the same exact set everytime. They ran that play ALL THE TIME. That will NEVER work in the NFL
I believe that after the Senior Bowl, the NFL Combine and UF Pro Day that Tebow will not be a first round pick. I think he could slide quite a bit. There will probably be at least a half dozen QBs that get drafted before him.
You won't being seeing the Tebow that we've all known the past 2 years. The Gators do not want him running every time he can, which in the NFL will get you injured. They're training him for the NFL at the same time as well as protecting their golden egg as best they can.
If they are training him to be an NFL QB, they aren't doing a very good job. That play in the first quarter where he went helmet-to-helmet with Eric Berry was dumb. NFL careers are ended (see Trent Green) because of plays like that.

Excellent point
Look at what Timmy is pimping.
Who wouldn't want that on the team?

The qb was not calling the plays...

He doesn't, but it is his decision what to do if the play starts to fall apart.
He may seem like a nice person and do a lot of charity and such, but IMO, he seems to carry himself with this god-like aura. He just seems like such a douche, thinking he is indestructable and can't be stopped. Well, I got news for you big boy, try what you did with E. Berry this past weekend, and you'll be on the IR list in a hot second.
QuoteWell, I got news for you big boy, try what you did with E. Berry this past weekend, and you'll be on the IR list in a hot second.
Why? Eric Berry is a 2 time All-American and arguably one of the best defensive players in college football - He will almost certainly be drafted higher than Tebow & subsequently be an immediate impact player in the NFL next season - won't Tebow still be able to lower his shoulder just like Saturday?
While I'm not completely sold on Tebow being Divine or even becoming a star in the NFL, I do feel like a late round experiment could be worth the risk - even if he's relegated to the practice squad. I for one am convinced the move WOULD increase ticket sales - absolutely no doubt about it. The Jags have FAILED overall in the first round for the last decade. If he's available down the board, I don't see how the franchise could pass - another team won't - it isn't like he'll go undrafted. Say goodbye to another wave of ticket holders if another franchise picks him up (they will) & he becomes a key contributor - both to the team & the community. If we were willing to accept the Matt Jones experiment, isn't Tebow that much easier? Like it or not, I do think the Jags will be pigeonholed into finding a way to get him on the roster.

I can find no valid arguement to make against such clear and obvoius fact.
Welp. Sign 'im up.
She could also increase ticket sales, btw.
.... she's already increased a few other things .....

So the idea is to draft 1st round long shot "experiment's" because the old GM didn't have much luck in the his first round selections? :-/
Desperate times........... :-\

Anyone check out this group on Facebook? It appears to be run by a student at UNF who got a bunch of people at UNF to join up as members. The premise being that everyone in this group is going to buy season tickets if Tebow is drafted? I'm sure Wayne Weaver is buying that.
111 members, yep Wayne should jump onto that bandwagon, only 15,000 more to go.

The irony is everyone complains how the Jags offense is all slants and 5-yard dump passes, with only occasional shots downfield. Isn't that the majority of UF's offense, plus the option and over-matched opponents for half the season?
The Gator game vs. Tennessee was like watching a Jaguar/Titan game.

Not their fault nobody is at Florida's level. Their schedule is predominately determined by SEC pairings, so beyond their control. I guess we could play Texas for the season opener, but I doubt they would agree to that.
tebow will not be a great nfl quarterback. draft him as a linebacker!
Tim Tebow - Matt Jones 2.0

Then who schedules Charleston Southern, Troy, and FIU?
Don't get me wrong; I'm aware everyone does it. It's just as wrong for other top-tier teams to schedule weak opponents.
I agree, mainly because it wasted 4 spaces for good games when I was in undergrad. Apparently the visiting lesser teams get paid plenty, other common excuses, etc....... That is one area where college football falls short.
