your right, thats why most of the time people prove sprortsscience wrong. Like how they said Kaepernick's accuracy was 92%...yeah 92% chance of being intercepted 3 times in NFC championships..
(1) I did a 7 page report on why Tebow is a winner. Out of all the qbs in the league, minimum of 14 games, he had the lowest passing attempts (271). The next lowest was 413 attempts by rookie qb from Jacksonville. "Well he runs the ball." Cam Newton had more rushing attempts and rushing yards than Tebow, and attempted 517 passes. The Broncos just ran the ball and tried to keep the ball out of Tebow's hands, unless they needed a comeback, which everyone knows about "Tebow Time."
His deep ball has always been good. In college, he threw ducks, thow it always made it to his deep threats - Percy Harvin, Louis Murphy, and Riley Cooper. Any objective fan of the game will admit that. He has improved greatly in how he throws the ball, he even throw's spirals now! His weakness is his intermediate passing game. Even in his best comeback (vs Jets as a Bronco) he threw passes into the ground or made receivers dive for the ball. He does that routinely. He needs to get better at that
TEBOW! TEBOW! The jets should give him a legitimate chance. if he failes, then so be it. what he did in denver last year was incredible, and it would be a shame if he never becomes a starting quarterback in the nfl again.
He makes at least $1,942,500, holds numerous amount of records, has a Heisman trophy along with other prestigious awards, and 2 National Titles along with another BCS title. How do you compare to him?
To put it into perspective. If you are a gamer and play MW3 or COD do you play inverted or regular. Lets say you play regular and have for years. Well all of a sudden new team captain says you have to switch it up because that's how he rolls. Of course you can play inverted but it's just gonna take some time to adjust and get used to the swing of things.
(2) In one game Tebow only had 8 passing attempts. You can't leave your shooting guard on the bench for a whole game, then ask him to come out and knock down 5 3-Pointers in less than 2 minutes. He's going to not have a groove or be warmed up to perform to everyone's pleasure. Look at what he did against the Steelers when they let him air it out. 316 yards passing. I'm happy he's going to the Jets were Rex will use him and give him the tools to be successful, unlike at Denver.
Jay Cutler routinely holds the ball low, and has a huge elbow flare when he winds up to throw. Rivers' mechanics do not even need to be discussed. They both can gun it, therefore are excused.
Why the hate for Tebow? Isnt that basically what Russel and RG3 do? Yeah, theyre better at throwing, but Tebow did the read option as well. Give the guy a chance. Let him play a couple of seasons and then form an opinion.
For those who are still doubting Tim Tebow: You have to remember that Tebow has only been in the NFL for two seasons and of those two season he has only started in enough games to amount to a full season, so he basically just got out of his rookie season in his second year. Also, the lock out prevented anyone from having an offseason trainging camp, so once he actually gets one he should be golden. Also, it wouldn't hurt for them to build the team around him as well.
Being left handed has nothing to do with the throwing motion. Ken Stabler, Boomer Esiason and Steve young were all left-handed and they threw just as well, if not better than their right handed counterparts. Also, there's a few lefties. Matt Leinart, Vick, Tebow, Kellen Moore, and Pat White to name a few.
i don't think you can say that considering his W-L record he's one of the better qbs in the league i don't care if he puts up manning numbers or not if he wins why does it matter
Na I know its hard to change a habit in football! It was so hard for me to stop going for the head when i tackled guys because thats how i was taught I never learned LOL
Let's be perfectly fair here - what he did in college with his slower-release has NOTHING to do with how it will/does affect his NFL play. For a show based on science, I find it a little sad they make a blanket statement like that without acknowledging or exploring the variables.
@7RaPeKiNg7 Tebow had a string of luck against bad teams barely squeaking them out. That caught up the last five games where he went 1-4. Eerily similar to Orton. Vince Young already did this. He started off 8-0. It was impressive. He was supposed to be the next big thing. The problem is though, luck caught up with him and now he is riding the pine, something Tebow will soon be doing next year.
I am not so certain, there have been a number of scientists who were not believers until they found every area of science to be so orderly that they came to believe it could not have happened by chance and there has to be a Creator.
I dont think he sucks when he helps lead a poor team like the Denver Broncos to a playoff win over the " Steal Curtan". Remember, the Broncos were 1-4 when he took over. And it's sad that people would call him gay because he lives a well rounded Christan life as a servant of God. Just because he doesnt sag, call women un-kind names, do drugs, or get drunk with his buddies doesnt mean he is gay. It means he is a well rounded Godly man who trys to do the right thing.
isnt it taken as granted that QBs should make more passing records than rushing.... -_- it would be very abnormal if tom brady actually have more rushing record than passing
Some Christians believe science, but those who believe the earth is 6000 years old have clearly forfeited all logic and reason in making that decision.
Actually the Bible isn't against homosexuality, because Jesus never said that it's wrong to be gay. But he did say that a marriage is between a man and a woman, so the Bible is against gay marriage.
Vick ran a 40 time of 4.35 while RG3 ran a 4.41, he had one of the most impressive seasons of any quarterback in the nfl in 2010, right behind aaron rodgers. I like RG3 and think he will be great but Vick in my opinion is a better rusher, RG3 wont have very good receivers with Washington so i think vick will have a better season. he has only made one bad decision in my opinion and that was dog figting.
But on a lighter note he wont be a jet for long he wants to be on the field and starting which I can respect and he isnt getting those opprotunities in NY.
peyton couldn't meet the expectations at first. cam newton's 2012/13 season was bumpy. rg3 is an outstanding exception. still, tebow is not a good nfl quarterback.
Hmmmm, Redskins tightened up its recieving corps during the free agency. RG3 has a better football IQ as a rookie then Vick did. It's all going to boil down on Shanahan. If he revolves the offense and playbook around RG3's skills he'll be up there with Cam as far as rookie seasons go. But if Shanahan gives him a old playbook with personal likes and schemes he wants RG3 to fall in on, RG3 will need more time to learn.
All of the comments about religion are hilarious. Religion is personal, so do not take offense if someone else believes differently than you. It really shouldn't mean anything to you. I don't take offense when I see someone wearing a blue shirt, just because my favorite colour is green.
Honestly god just like to fuck with tim tebow. God: hey tim wanna be a QB? Tim: Uh duh god hook me up! God: Okay I'll send you to the jet God to Rex Ryan: Don't waste your time Tim can save you
Tebow was frigging amazing in Florida but sadly his success didn't transition well in the NFL :/ oh well Atleast he'll be remembered as a legend in the SEC :D
its a shame that noone wanted to work with him on his throwing motion. i thought when he went to the Pats, bill O'brian (OC) wouldve helped him. after all hes a QB coach. then they cut him, smh
shottahboyslim its harder to adapt to a different position, especially since he hasnt played the position. Switching to TE in the pros wouldve been disastrous. Does he have a long and slow release? YES! To assume that Tebow would never get it right is too soon to tell. Terry Bradshaw was no good for the longest time bc his football IQ was low. It took several horrible years before he caught on. Brett Favre was viewed that way too. An ambitious gun slinger with low IQ and even he got a ring. ROMO was a walk on, moved up to practice team, then 3rd string, 2nd and finally first. Tebow has a competitive nature unmatched by many. Its his determination to be better and the faith in himself which gives me confidence.
thats very true, but a receiving TE would have been his best bet , look at Denard Robinson and Ryan Tannehill they completely changed their positions and are doing pretty well
shottahboyslim Tannehill changed in college. Robinson has insane speed. Tebow can break tackles, but blocking assignments and running routes are far more difficult, the learning curve wwould've been greater than the others had to adjust to. Tebow just has to learn to throw more efficiently. If he switched, he'd have routes, concepts, blocking assignments, timing, catching; a much longer list for a coach to deal with. If they dont have the patience to deal with one problem (throwing motion), what kind of patience would they have for his new learning curve? Not much i say. It wouldve been the true end of Tebow
The reason that his throwing motion is weired because he is left handed there's not that many left handed NFL quart backs actually I this there's only micheal Vick and Tim tebow
Combined genealogies are used by Bible believers to determine the age of the earth, and 6,000 is a bit short, but it is thousands and not millions or billions of years.
his throwing motion is probably 20% less accurate than regular throwing motion, but his arm power is ridiculously strong
sportsscience may not consider pros n cons
your right, thats why most of the time people prove sprortsscience wrong. Like how they said Kaepernick's accuracy was 92%...yeah 92% chance of being intercepted 3 times in NFC championships..
this guy is just too nice

terry bradshaw, phillip rivers, jay cutler(footwork)
He makes at least $1,942,500, holds numerous amount of records, has a Heisman trophy along with other prestigious awards, and 2 National Titles along with another BCS title. How do you compare to him?
when we said like moving the ball down the field they should of show the run he did vs okland
To put it into perspective. If you are a gamer and play MW3 or COD do you play inverted or regular. Lets say you play regular and have for years. Well all of a sudden new team captain says you have to switch it up because that's how he rolls. Of course you can play inverted but it's just gonna take some time to adjust and get used to the swing of things.
good to see dewey from malcolm in the middle getting work
I saw Tebow throw it pretty far down the field. When he set all of those passing records in the playoffs, remember?
@deivlo no he went to flordia state
(2) In one game Tebow only had 8 passing attempts. You can't leave your shooting guard on the bench for a whole game, then ask him to come out and knock down 5 3-Pointers in less than 2 minutes.

right... and i guess 2nd round playoffs is something every team accomplishes
Why the hate for Tebow? Isnt that basically what Russel and RG3 do? Yeah, theyre better at throwing, but Tebow did the read option as well. Give the guy a chance. Let him play a couple of seasons and then form an opinion.

can someone tell me cause i always wanted to know... why did tebow not start for the jets cause his year with the broncos he was pretty good
they did a Sports Science study on a QB that has a passer completion rating of less than 50%? WTF!
delany63 agreed.
I'd like to see sports science for mma
RIGHT ON! 50% COMPLETIONS AND 100 YARDS RUSHING WILL DO IT.
This is cool
When I clicked I knew it wasn't gonna be about accuracy
Thats why the Jets have Tibow playing Running Back
Being left handed has nothing to do with the throwing motion. Ken Stabler, Boomer Esiason and Steve young were all left-handed and they threw just as well, if not better than their right handed counterparts. Also, there's a few lefties. Matt Leinart, Vick, Tebow, Kellen Moore, and Pat White to name a few.
They should have measured the heat is ass produces while sitting the bench
his ears are funneh
i don't think you can say that considering his W-L record he's one of the better qbs in the league i don't care if he puts up manning numbers or not if he wins why does it matter
maybe because tebow had less than 50% pass completion?
Na I know its hard to change a habit in football! It was so hard for me to stop going for the head when i tackled guys because thats how i was taught I never learned LOL
They also left out the fact that in college Tebow had a higher completion percentage than "The Great" Peyton Manning.
Let's be perfectly fair here - what he did in college with his slower-release has NOTHING to do with how it will/does affect his NFL play. For a show based on science, I find it a little sad they make a blanket statement like that without acknowledging or exploring the variables.
Wow hope I be faster with the release as a lefty
I do know why... and I love the man... I am reading his autobiography and it is incredible!
someone should pick him up
@7RaPeKiNg7 Tebow had a string of luck against bad teams barely squeaking them out. That caught up the last five games where he went 1-4. Eerily similar to Orton. Vince Young already did this. He started off 8-0. It was impressive. He was supposed to be the next big thing. The problem is though, luck caught up with him and now he is riding the pine, something Tebow will soon be doing next year.
It's been said that Tebow could throw 50 yards on one knee as a teenager.
YES. A MEDIA SHOW THAT DOESN'T UP TEBOW. I FOUND ONE!
I am not so certain, there have been a number of scientists who were not believers until they found every area of science to be so orderly that they came to believe it could not have happened by chance and there has to be a Creator.
Tim Tebow's throwing motion is a hell of a lot better than Byron Leftwich's cumbersome medieval catapult of an arm !
sports science can make John Madden standing up interesting
Why in the hell do people think tebow is bad?????
we don't plain and simple
but Tebow is known for running, that is why the video makes the point that he really passes more than he runs...
I dont think he sucks when he helps lead a poor team like the Denver Broncos to a playoff win over the " Steal Curtan". Remember, the Broncos were 1-4 when he took over. And it's sad that people would call him gay because he lives a well rounded Christan life as a servant of God. Just because he doesnt sag, call women un-kind names, do drugs, or get drunk with his buddies doesnt mean he is gay. It means he is a well rounded Godly man who trys to do the right thing.
respect him as a person, but as a QB...Tim Teblows.
WOW. a qb set more passing records than rushing records? unfathomable.
Exactly. How in the world do they explain the 3 billion+ year old fossils?
Tim Tebow on Sports Science. The title is kind of funny itself.
isnt it taken as granted that QBs should make more passing records than rushing....
-_- it would be very abnormal if tom brady actually have more rushing record than passing
.1 secound in Tebow time
Some Christians believe science, but those who believe the earth is 6000 years old have clearly forfeited all logic and reason in making that decision.
Russell and RG3 are both rookies, and Tebow needs a couple seasons?
Actually the Bible isn't against homosexuality, because Jesus never said that it's wrong to be gay. But he did say that a marriage is between a man and a woman, so the Bible is against gay marriage.
*know
This is the first time I've seen a left handed quarterback
Vick
Hefty lefty
not enough
Know*
Do u mean generally, or right now in football?
Vick ran a 40 time of 4.35 while RG3 ran a 4.41, he had one of the most impressive seasons of any quarterback in the nfl in 2010, right behind aaron rodgers. I like RG3 and think he will be great but Vick in my opinion is a better rusher, RG3 wont have very good receivers with Washington so i think vick will have a better season. he has only made one bad decision in my opinion and that was dog figting.
But on a lighter note he wont be a jet for long he wants to be on the field and starting which I can respect and he isnt getting those opprotunities in NY.
they might as well do one on me next
Where? Canada? Arena Football?
He went to UF (idk if that was sarcasm)
i blame god for making him throw .20 seconds slower than the average NFL QB
lol, great comparrison.
@peace21148 But he loves you :)
man science has never been so cool
peyton couldn't meet the expectations at first. cam newton's 2012/13 season was bumpy. rg3 is an outstanding exception. still, tebow is not a good nfl quarterback.
Matthew 5:11
know*...
vick has a faster release time, 40 time and a stronger arm
Tebow to the jets!!!!???
Hmmmm, Redskins tightened up its recieving corps during the free agency. RG3 has a better football IQ as a rookie then Vick did. It's all going to boil down on Shanahan. If he revolves the offense and playbook around RG3's skills he'll be up there with Cam as far as rookie seasons go. But if Shanahan gives him a old playbook with personal likes and schemes he wants RG3 to fall in on, RG3 will need more time to learn.
he playing fullback but the Jets should trade him to the jags
@CallistoCassiniCCEA
Indeed, I just hope w/e team picks him up they destroy the Broncos next year.
Tebow
All of the comments about religion are hilarious. Religion is personal, so do not take offense if someone else believes differently than you. It really shouldn't mean anything to you. I don't take offense when I see someone wearing a blue shirt, just because my favorite colour is green.
being left handed have nothing to do with weird throwing motions. =.=
Aaron Rodgers had a silly ass throwing motion in college and he change when he got pro!
Science is better than religion
Yep, even though he took the Broncos to the playoffs and even though we all know Sanchez is just a beast when it comes to winning games. hahahaha!
lol it has nothing to do with being left handed. the reason there is more right handed quarterbacks is because there are more right handed people.
@Ramin233 not in the playoffs
3:16
@AnytimeNick LOLWUT?
Honestly god just like to fuck with tim tebow.
God: hey tim wanna be a QB?
Tim: Uh duh god hook me up!
God: Okay I'll send you to the jet
God to Rex Ryan: Don't waste your time Tim can save you
um just because hes a christian doesnt mean he doesnt believe in science
atheist dont have a monopoly on science
@emanuel2011 wow nice
@joh74377 9-7 as a starter
It will go down don't worry, the trend is happening.
Tebow was frigging amazing in Florida but sadly his success didn't transition well in the NFL :/ oh well Atleast he'll be remembered as a legend in the SEC :D
its a shame that noone wanted to work with him on his throwing motion. i thought when he went to the Pats, bill O'brian (OC) wouldve helped him. after all hes a QB coach. then they cut him, smh
Evets Zerimar they cut him because he didnt want to make the switch to TE , he could never become an NFL QB

Orton seriously lost his start to this guy?
I think he's saying that because a large percent of science contradicts Christian beliefs..
Explain.
if you lack knowledge of the Bible and Christianity, please do not comment about it.
The reason that his throwing motion is weired because he is left handed there's not that many left handed NFL quart backs actually I this there's only micheal Vick and Tim tebow
Combined genealogies are used by Bible believers to determine the age of the earth, and 6,000 is a bit short, but it is thousands and not millions or billions of years.
Congratulations, you're officially in a very select group of people that do not know the spelling difference between "know" and "no"
Tebow wasnt even start for the gators it was that one guy
huh
Freshman he didnt start
