QB should be just another position. A serious team doesn't need the world's greatest athlete at QB and the world's greatest athlete at QB won't save a non-serious team; the recent history of the Washington Deadskins demonstrates that.

What you do want for QB any more is somebody tall enough to throw over linemen, smart, tough, and rugged with a good arm. Tebow has all of that.

What has happened is that the NFL has “interpreted” the rules lately to make passing more important. I don’t understand the underlying plan there, but that’s how the game is being played. Of course star qbs seem to get most of the nice advertising gigs too which may be another part of it.

If Tebow had a good arm, he wouldn’t have been out of football since 2012. I hope he spent the past 2 years working on his mechanics.
