Tim Tebow meets his worst career fears in Senior Bowl debut

By Matt Hinton

On top of the technical issues NFL scouts have with Tim Tebow as a prospective pro quarterback, there's also the standard next-level complaint about "the system" -- specifically, among other things, that Tebow spent the entirety of his college career at Florida taking snaps from the shotgun, never from under center, even in short-yardage situations. That seemingly minor qualm opens up an entirely new avenue of doubts about his ability to adjust to basic mechanics like footwork and turning his back to the defense, fundamentals most quarterbacks have converted to second nature long before they show up for NFL auditions (or, in most cases, before they ever set foot in an actual college game)...

Just thought I'd throw this bit of info in the mix since there is a lot of QB draft talk going on. And yes, I realize he hasn't been mentioned as a potential pick by the Skins but you never know.

It should be noted that, according to PFT, Tebow currently has strep throat, which could be impacting his play.

No surprises here

Yeah Tebow is looking piss poor under center. If he doesn't show major improvement then he might see a Colt Brennan like fall.

[Fred Jones]

No surprises here

Agree, nothing new.

[JaimeDeCurry]

This makes me happy.

Colt can't play TE.

Strep throat can make you sick as a dog too. I had it prob 4-5 years ago and it's the sickest I remember being since I was a little kid.

Not that I expected Tebow to be lighting it up or anything anyway.

[bird_1972]

I'm a little disappointed.

He was such a good college player and even though his mechanics need a ton of work (and it looks like they are unlikely to get fixed anytime soon), I would've liked to see him do well.

He's got stellar leadership qualities that are so hard to find in most QBs.

I don't expect much from him as a QB, looks like he might be a little better than Eric Crouch.

For those of you speaking ill of Tebow, I have but one question:

Why do you mock Jesus Christ?

[Santana_89]

What a shocker

[frommd]

Tim Tebow once had an awkward practice, just to see what it felt like.

[nebster21]

Reminds me of what everyone said about Vince Young.

[SkinsMaster88]

Colt can't play TE.

Yeah, and Tebow doesn't want to play TE either. I heard he won't even do any of the TE drills at the Senior Bowl/Combine to prove he can be a successful QB only.

I don't think it's gonna work. But all it takes is one team to take a chance on him. He's the perfect example of a great college player that can't transition to the NFL game.
