This should be good.

Perhaps the CFL would be a better place to try to stage the comeback.

We’ll see.

He’ll have to do phenomenal to get his haters to quiet down.

I hope it’s true... at 27, time is passing.

Tebow had great leadership skills at Denver. But, he didn’t look good in several pre-season games with the Pats in 2013, and was unwilling to consider a special teams position instead of full time QB (not that I blame him).

The Headline begs to ask if Tim Tebow’s Partner was consulted on his “Fixing”....

Give Tebow credit for not giving up his dream. He has a gig and is receiving positive reviews for his work at ESPN/SEC Network. It would of been easy to enjoy his new career which itself is a great accomplishment.

This story is proof of what NFL watchers already know - there are not nearly enough competent/good QBs to go around.

Lots of guys who washed out spend a bunch of time with some coach and “relearn” how to play. Then if they get back in the league the first rush hits and they revert to form. In the world where you have 2.4 seconds to throw that ball instinct is a powerful, and retraining your instincts when you’re in your 20s is borderline impossible.

27 is getting pretty old to try and make a comeback.

In baseball Tim would have been kicked back down to the minors where his mechanics could be tweaked until he was ready to move back to the big leagues, if ever. I wish him success in getting back into the NFL.

Where have we heard that before?

Quarterback coach claims to have fixed Tim Tebow's throwing motion

The article is from 2013.

Maybe his throwing has been “fixed”, but I doubt they can fix his quarterback IQ. I watched every game Tebow played, and he was no better at reading defenses and reading off his receivers during his last game than his first one.
