    Tebow doesn't have the luxury of hitting the X button and scrolling through five play diagrams.
    He has no problem running the play thats called, he has a problem running for his life cuz its a jailbreak every snap.

    At UF he called every play. He analyzed the look he got from the D and called the appropriate play. dont give me no bullshit that calling plays in college are somehow different lol. you guys are just making shit up now.

    just put him in the gun and let him go! aaatttiiicaaaa!

    To the best of knowledge - there is only ONE QB playing today who calls his own plays - that is Peyton Manning. And I would not imagine he has done that since day one.

    Tebow didn't call his own plays at Florida...not even sure where that's coming from. At the college level, and especially in Urban Meyer's offense, options are built in to each play (that's why they call it a Spread Option offense). Maybe he means the zone read stuff, I don't know. I don't think he has a clue what he's talking about.
    *The statements above are my opinions, unless they are links, because then they are links, which wouldn't make them my opinions, and I suppose stats aren't necessarily opinion, but they are certainly presented to support an opinion. Proceed accordingly.

    Probably meant audible plays!

    He didn't call those either. In Meyer's offense, the offensive coordinator calls in the audibles from the booth, and the quarterback/running back/ wide receivers check with the sideline for adjustments.

    Huh...didn't know that, it's pretty sorry if you can't even trust your quarterback with basic audible plays though. Not surprised, I know Coach Saban was the same with the offense at Michigan State, but it was different for the defense.

    I'm sure by his senior season he was making a few calls, but that's a staple of the spread offense in college. They call two plays in the first huddle of the drive, run the first, hurry to the line and then the quarterback, wide receivers and running backs check with the sideline for adjustments. Those adjustments come from the offensive coordinator in the booth, based on the alignment and personnel of the defense. Now, Florida did less of it in his last two years than, say, Auburn, Oregon and Missouri, but that's how the offense operates. It's another reason why NFL coaches stray away from Spread quarterbacks.

    less? None is more like it.. the spread is the spread... the calls either come from the sideline or the QB in UFs case it was the QB. Im going to find a clip of TT talking about it.
