‘After my time around Tebow and House last year, I went to the NFL Combine, where the reaction from coaches and personnel people to claims of a Tebow transformation was a collective shrug.

‘”The problem isn’t really his arm,” said one veteran NFL defensive coach about Tebow. “It’s that he’s not wired to process what he’s seeing once the ball is snapped, and if you don’t have that, you simply can’t be a quarterback in this league.”

How much, if at all, Tebow can remedy that aspect of his game remains to be seen. Chip Kelly, who knows more about mobile QBs than any coach in the NFL and may be the most creative guy in the sport, thinks it’s worth a shot to see what happens. It’ll be interesting to see what Kelly may do with him.’

He's unpopular because he's a Christian. He's HATED because he's a pro-life icon.

If it weren't for him, Denver would've gotten Andrew Luck. People forget that.

Interesting stuff.
I always enjoy seeing the scientific aspects of sports.

My SIL who is a PGA licensed teaching pro was showing me some of the video cams and software he uses for golf instruction.

This is probably quite similar.

Totally random fact. Remembered by hardly anyone.

When Henry Aaron hit home run number 715 in April 1974, Tom House was in the bullpen and caught the ball.

Carry on.

I’m no Iggles or Floriduh fan, but I would like for a physically & mentally improved Tebow to make the team, step in as the starting QB at some point during the season, take them to the SB, and shut up for good the Christian-despising, leftist media @-holes and Gator-hater fans.

Sports radio guy in Philly described Tebow’s throwing motion as “He throws like a small child trying to hurl a can of paint.”
