Fox said he saw improvement and Tebow will start for at least one more game:

Fox saw improvement because there was improvement

Anyone go back and look at the tape instead of just throwing hands up at the final score saying we sucked and so did Tebow

What about the drops

What about the fng 3rd and 3 when Tebow threw a bullet to royal who ran exactly 1.5yds on his route and the ball was a perfect strike and had royal run 3 yds on the damn route it would have been a 1st down

We need to take those fng 7 step drop plays out of the fng play book and burn them

We don't have a oline capable of blocking for that time, nor do we have a QB who can master his drops yet, so get them out of the play book cause they don't work with our personnel we have on the offense right now

You have to keep who was played in perspective. Tebow may have looked worse, but he played against a vastly superior defense. I'm not defending him, just offering an explanation.

I would take Elway's word over Fox's, Elway is a quarterback (at least)...Fox is the dumbass coach that kept a quarterback in the starting lineup after having a record game in turnovers!

it's a subjective question North. It's like rating a movie. it's possible that through Elway's eyes, there was no improvement and that through Fox's eyes, there was. You can Believe them both. . Now was there improvement or wasn't there? Apparently it depends on who you ask

What does it say to the rest of your guys in your locker room if you lower the expectations for one player? It says that if they can't perform, you will lower your expectations. It's a very dangerous road to be on when you are in the middle of a rebuild with a bunch of young players.

Are coaches usually honest or deceptive?

Not to mention, I think Elway was asked early enough that he was not as on his toes and thus honest...whereas Fox will pull the politically correct bullshit.

No we don't. We don't need to lower our expectations because our QB can't perform at this level.

Adjusting your game to cater to your talent (or lack thereof) is not lowering expectations. The alternative is to keep trying stuff that clearly isn't working no matter who's under center.

It's easy to forget that we were 1-4 with an 'experienced passer' before Tebow took over.

Well, yes and no. I dont think Elway micro manages. However, Fox has only had 3 winning seasons out 9 (this will be 10) and he has a tendency to force the square peg into the round hole when it comes to his QB of choice. Now, im all for Tebow playing it out because they need to be sure that he cant do it. But, Elway did play the position and played it very well so i think i would have to agree with Lan that i would take what he said a bit more serious than what i would from Fox.

Ok, that's fine. That's not what I said though. I didn't say believe Fox over Elway, I simply said unless Elway decides to directly meddle, his opinion is only slightly more relevant than ours.

Fox has already decided Tebow will start. Despite Elway's misgivings.

No, of course not. However, you have to look at the position itself. Carolina is bad yet at the QB position they are WORLDS better than they were a year ago.

10-31-2011, 03:16 PM
It's okay for Elway to say he saw no improvement because he is not the HC.

It's also okay for the HC to say he saw improvement "publicly" because you can't show a lack of confidence in your young QB publicly or that QB is going to lose even more confidence because his HC publicly put him down.

Tebow to start this week and the next 8 weeks after is the right move. What good would it do to go back to Orton or even Quinn? How much credibility would Fox have in that locker room if he played musical chairs at QB and we still lost? THis season and team is not good. These next 9 games need to have all rookies and 1st and 2nd year players on the field at all times. Cut your loses on the vets and truely re-build.

Give the playbook to Quinn...he is not doing anything, knows the playbook and could probably call a few plays. Shoot, let Tebow call his own plays in the huddle. I gaurantee the plays will look a lot like that first drive when we moved straight down the field and had a TD...err....FG..thanks Decker.

True, but they were never as bad as the Broncos. In other words, they never should have been as bad as they were, they don't have quite the caliber of Garbage that Denver has. A few tweaks for them was just what they needed to start back on track. We have had nothing but tweaks for the past 4 years and I'm not sure if spinning in circles like we are really allows you to move forward.

All I can say is if we burn through yet another coordinator or coach or QB next year, my head is just going to explode. You can't keep changing everything every year and expect any kind of consistency. It doesn't work that way.

You do realize that Carolina was worse than us last year right? And they have a very soft division like ours? They may have Smith and a defender here and there but so do we (or did with Lloyd) and Bailey. Outside of that they have a lot of new parts on the coaching staff, etc. The difference is they have a QB who can actually pass from the pocket. I dont know why people keep saying they are that much better than us last year, they won only one game. :lol:

That's a chicken/egg argument. If we were 5-2, I doubt the talk would be about how bad Tebow sucks.

Speaking of 5-2 teams, the Lions went down this road. Seems to be working out for them now...

The problem we have, is that we keep 'rebuilding' instead of letting a rebuild proceed.

I know Orton is done, Quinn didnt inspire me at all in preaseason, well a little but I had enough of Orton last year.

If I recall, there were alot of argumnets on this board saying people would be ALOT more patient if this switch was made.

Guess patience is easy to type.

Tebow is RAW, very, and honestly I dont think he is/will be ready anytime soon. But we need to just ride this pile of steaming dung to the dump and hope this draft is better.

I think Tebow stinks and probably won't pan out, that said, I agree, we have to ride it out.

We can't afford to play Quinn with a 3rd going to Cleveland if he does anything while starting. Can't go back to Orton as it's a step back. We're stuck with what we have.

That was exactly my thought going forward... Why would we bench Tebow at this point? Can't possibly go to Quinn and give up a 3rd rounder to Cleveland. There will be revolt if Orton is back in there...

I think it's safe to say that Tebow is a good shot to start for the rest of this season. Hopefully that dipshit McCoy will put him in an offense that will give him a chance to not totally suck. Dropping him back 40 times like he's Dan Marino isn't going to do us any good.

Well, we could go back to Orton, or even play Weber. Personally, I don't think either is a good move. While it's a long shot that Tebow will improve enough to warrant going into next season with him as the starter, there is no downside in letting it play out and knowing for sure.

I refuse to count Tebow out just yet. Fox and the front office have made it clear to Tebow that his career as a quarterback is OVER if he does not perform next Sunday. He will not have another chance to play quarterback in the NFL as long as he lives if he does not come out and play well. If Tebow is ever going to amount to anything in the NFL, we will see it next Sunday with his back against the wall. I'm cheering him on, I think he can do it.

I think your point is... well...not the point.

No one is saying that Tebow cant preform a 7 step drop. Its that its called at the wrong time. why the **** would you want a seven step drop against a 9 WIDE?!?!?!?!??!?!!?!??!?!?

There is no bad strategy... There is only a strategy played at the wrong time.

If Tebow is eventually replaced before the end of the season I don't see it being Orton. I think it will be Quinn. I don't think Orton will see the field again unless Tebow and Quinn are injuried.

Once again, by starting Quinn we risk giving up a 3rd rounder in an ALREADY lopsided trade with Cleveland, for a player who isn't under contract after this year. In a rebuilding phase that would be 100% idiotic.

Quinn is NOT an option. I would hope they start Weber before Quinn.

Can you provide details? All I have been able to find is that the 2012 conditional pick is a late round pick per report from Schefter. http://twitter.com/#!/Adam_Schefter/status/10485517812

I would not put interception in there but fumble twice. He does not throw very many INTs he rather run then threw one.

I know Tebow has been struggling and needs to get better, but I don't understand why Fox is saying this? Is he going to move on to Quinn?

I don't care what the state of the organization is in, it makes absolutely 0 sense to go back to Kyle Orton at this point. None whatsoever.

If I recall corrctley there were a couple of dropped interceptions too. After more film is disected I expect those numbers to go up.

I could be wrong though.

And there are just as many dropped passes by WR. 1 INT in 2 1/2 games, one bright spot besides his running ability.

Or a testament to how bad his throws are!

His passes are so far off the target that not even the defenders can get a hand on them! :beer:

haha....if only the blame can be only Tebows fault then getting a new QB would fix it all. Rather then having young WR and TE who drop pases or suck (Rosario). Royal dropped a couple perfect at him and he just dropped. Some where no best thrown but went off WR hands.

I don't remember Royal dropping any perfect passes. Rosario "dropped" a slightly catchable underthrow. The dropped passes thing is a really exaggerated and lame excuse.

Does anyone here actually know how much Brady Quinn would have to play in order to escalate the pick? Unless the condition is "if Brady Quinn steps onto the field," it's hard for me to believe that starting him isn't and never will be an option.

Fox says he saw improvement but Elway said he didnt. Who do we believe?

Tebow's throws are having an impact on how the QB position is played in the NFL and is changing how corner backs cover the WR's. Corner backs will have to play way out of position now just to intercept Tebows off target passes.

Also this gives other teams a look at Tebow and if a trade deal can be done next year if he does not pan out. Or keep Tebow for a #3 or #2 QB move Weber up to #2 or #3 and draft a rookie starter.

To be honest, I don't know any of the 31 teams in the NFL who are interested in trading for Tebow?

Right now Tebow has a better chance at having a career as starting TE than a starting QB.

We're getting ready to lose Royal to free agency, so I've been wondering if we should move Tebow to the slot and see how he does there, with Thomas and Decker at one and two. We're sort of overstocked at tight end, and J. Thomas is looking like a beast if we can keep him healthy.

I've tried to find information on this, and have never been able to do so.

To be honest, none of us have any clue if any team would be willing to trade for Tebow or what his value would be. My personal speculation is that any team that traded for him wouldn't offer much, but that's just a guess, as is your statement.
