Tebow would rate a ten on a scale which Rothlessburger wouldn’t rate more than a four or five on, no comparison at all.

My only concern is that Tebow won’t be able to run effectively against NFL-quality defenses, he can get away with it against college defenses, but he will get punished in the NFL.

He’s a pretty accurate mid-range passer, he made some deadly accurate throws last night, but he needs to work on his long pass accuracy.

He might even be a Matt Jones-like conversion project, to maybe a tight end or receiver. If he bulked up, he could even play on the defensive side of the ball. Tebow is not just a QB, he’s a football player, period. He would have excelled in the old two-way days.

I could tell your a woman. Nough said. Nothing personal.

Tebow is a runner. They don’t last long against pro’s.
No I’m not a Rothlessburger backer.
just played some - no not pro

Rothlessburger would have a field day with those college defenses. He’s made the Pro-Bowl, won the Super Bowl, and this year he’s swept Baltimore, one of the best defenses in the league.

I respectfully strongly disagree. Tebow is the CLASSIC example of a great college player who has very little potential as a pro. His arm is not a pro arm and he's slow (for the pros). I love the guy, but uh-uh.

He'd have a better chance of making it as a linebacker than a QB.

And, I do have a small track record here. When my beloved Giants drafted Ron Dayne as their number one, I immediately called my Big Ten expert buddy Richie in Chicago. He loved Dayne, but I told him he's never going to outrun the NFL LBs.

I was right then, and I belive I am right here. Time will tell.
