[...] "He is actually getting better every day," offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur said on Wednesday. "He works extremely hard. He is getting comfortable in what we do. He is having more good plays than bad plays out here. He is doing a very good job."
[...] Now with the Eagles, and after spending two years working on his throwing motion, quarterbacks coach Ryan Day said he can see the hard work Tebow put in paying off.
"He is working hard out here just like everyone out. He has some good throws, some throws he wants to get back," Day said. "But he is working hard to change his throwing motion, and every day he is getting better."
[...] It is clear that he is the best athlete among the quarterbacks, and has tucked the ball down a few times during seven-on-seven and 11-on-11 drills. He has also displayed a strong arm. [...]

I wish him well and hope he succeeds with his current team.
I bet she has a great record in the red zone ;)
I was so glad he isn’t playing for the Patriots, the only NFL team I detest.
If Tim had played for them it would have caused me awful confusion.
I became a Broncos fan because of Tim the coach John Fox. Liked both and was really disappointed when Panthers fired Fox.
I can go for the Eagles. Always like their helmets.
He has the intangible something that every quarterback should have...the will to win...the ability to love the game and win the big ones. Look at Elway and Favre...they were not the best quarterbacks mechanics wise in their first year or two...same with Tebow. Once he gets some experience he's going to take some team to the Superbowl.
Tebow is there as the possible third string quarterback. The idiots on local sports radio spend hours going on about how Tebow HAS to be cut, even though the current 3rd string QB is a disaster.
Then they always go on that if you get down to your third QB the season is over anyway, so that’s another reason NOT to have Tebow.
It’s just group think Tebow hate. It seems to me Tebow can do little harm as the third stringer, and maybe a little good.
I think he’s an excellent leader, and as you say he’s a winner. If he were a QB in the 1960’s or 1970’s I think he would have been one of the best. But the modern game is different. Every NFL team wants to be made from the same cookie cutter and they all think they are going to win the Super Bowl every year.
For Tebow to have a chance the team would have to adapt to him as John Fox did in Denver and it worked. But as we saw after that, no other team is willing to do it, and Fox probably wouldn’t have done it if he had a choice. So Tebow has to adapt to have a chance. The odds are against him.
Oh,that’s not good.
The Panthers showed why they’re a bad team by grossly over paying.
And Jordan had a strike zone big enough for a Cadillac.
Tebow was terrible with the Pats in preseason. He was terrible passer at that time. He spent a couple of years working with Tom House. If he has corrected his mechanics and improved his accuracy to NFL standard he could excel in Kelly’s system.
He is a good hope he does well. IMO he could be the #2 behind Bradford, who is injury prone. If so he will get his shot.
In Tebow’s last active role at quarterback (Jets) his completion rate was 75 percent. But the Jets didn't want to play him. And they didn't.
You obviously never saw Mark Malone when he played for the Steelers. He was lucky for the ball to land in the same time zone as the intended receiver.
