This is one of the primary reasons John Elway does not understand Tim Tebow.
I think Elway’s comments about Tebow were negatively exaggerated by the press.
AFAIK, when asked if he thought Tebow was the long term answer to the Bronco QB problem, Elway answered that in order for that to be, Tebow needs to improve his passing accuracy.
That makes sense to me, as no QB is going to last in the NFL
carrying the ball 15 times-a-game with a 45% pass completion average. Even Tebow’s most rabid fans cannot argue that Tebow is better than a mediocre passer. (by NFL standards)
I’ve been a Bronco fan since ‘63 and am pulling for
Tebow’s success as much as anyone.
