  • Tim Tebow and Blessings: No Longer BFF

    Apparently Tim Tebow is being punished in Job-like fashion.

    He is having a really sucky time at the Senior Bowl, fumbling snaps in front of NFL scouts and basically looking awful from under center, as opposed to the perpetual shotgun formation at Florida.

    NFL Scouts were unimpressed, with one scout indicating that Tebow looked like a third-stringer.

    Performing drills with fellow South team quarterbacks Zac Robinson of Oklahoma State and Jarrett Brown of West Virginia, Tebow fumbled the ball at least twice while taking snaps under center.
    Later in team drills, Tebow fell into his same old habits — holding onto the ball too long, locking onto receivers and throwing wobbly passes.
    The scouts noticed.
    "He looks like the third QB out there," one NFC South talent evaluator said.
    Please be mindful of Tim Tebow and keep him in your thoughts.

    How am I supposed to word it? "Oh Tim, who art in Florida, hallowed be thy name, please bless thyself?"

      A few other updates:

      South team -- Tebow is continuing to struggle under center. His timing and rhythm are off, even for a quarterback working with new receivers. He also seems to be having problems reading the defense, which combined with his elongated release makes him late on some throws. However, he is not hanging his head and is remaining positive and embracing the leadership role.
      Tebow and West Virginia QB Jarrett Brown are having similar problems with their footwork. Tebow looks heavy-footed right now and at times is seemingly in slow motion. He is thinking too much and not reacting, and he sailed a pass in the flat.
      We're here along with NFL scouts and coaches to take in practices, which are generating more buzz than we've seen in a long time. This year's group of seniors is very strong, especially along the defensive line, and QB Tim Tebow is the best thing to happen to the Senior Bowl in a long time.
      South Team: Bad Days
      Florida QB Tim Tebow -- We were anxious to see Tebow work under center and he ended up looking very awkward. He fumbled snaps, took false steps in his drops and had trouble setting his feet at the top of his drops. Tebow was out of rhythm as a result and hurried his throws, which in turn affected his accuracy. He simply couldn't put it all together on Day 1. Tebow is essentially relearning how to do everything and struggled today, though he did remain positive and continued to embrace a leadership role.
      Day 2:

      Depth in his drops and inconsistent accuracy still are problems for Tim Tebow as today's practice gets under way. He also appears to be pushing the ball rather than snapping it out of his hand.
      As the South team gets loose for practice, we're wondering how Florida State S Myron Rolle will respond after his body lagged behind his mind on Day 1. The rust was showing for Rolle, who spent the past year studying at Oxford. And the big buzz here in Mobile is that Tim Tebow has come down with strep throat, although he has said he will continue practicing.

        The title reads "Tim Tebow meets his worst career fears in Senior Bowl Debut."

        Yet, for some reason, I couldn't find the part where it talked about the ACL tears or his paralysis. If your worst career fears are a wobbly throw and a tough time handling a center snap, life isn't so bad.

          Perhaps Tebow should simply hope that there is an NFL team out there that wants its QB to lead the team in rushing yardage and rushing TDs.

              Wow. All I can say is well done, well done.

                  I heard that Blount got invited to help the North team beat the South and free the slaves, kind of like Glory.
