He did it there, here, the Mane and I think he did it at BroncosCountry too.

Lets hope it gets MUCH better as the season progresses. But, I can confidently say that I now understand fully why Fox would believe Orton gave us the best "chance" to win, and why Schlereth would say that when he watched the practices, Tebow looked horrible.

Now lets just hope progression is something we see, or... start setting bets on what QB we go after.

Wasn't just Stink! PK/TR from Sirius NFL were at training camp, and said it was embarrassing, to watch him throw. Underthrows/overthrows...birds being killed, gophers running for their lives..... ;')
And leading up to his broadcast of the SD game, Gannon scouted denver. Let's just say, there wasn't much improvement.

Imo..... If they're going with TT the remainder of the yr, with the idea in mind to see if he can be the FQB, use more of his plays from UF, just as Car is with Newton. If they're showcasing him for tradebait.....FAIL!

So, as a DC what would you do? Flood the box with 8 defenders and keep Tebow in the pocket. MAKE him beat you throwing the ball downfield and hitting the open WR.

Well, he didn't do that against San Diego or Miami. He was able to beat the "prevent defense" which only "prevents" you from winning where they drop 7 defenders in coverage and let Tebow run around and "make plays."

You would have thought that the Dolphins DC would have figured it out "hey! He can't hit the broad side of a barn, so don't change a thing. Keep bringing 8 and keeping back three and dare him to stay in the pocket and throw downfield."

But, no. The moron was "trying to prevent the big play and keep everything in front" and let Tebow get a rhythm and make plays. Then the Broncos defense got excited and recovered 2 fumbles and the rest was history.

At some point a team is going to say "why change what works." But, conventional thinking is a real curse in the NFL. And the Dolphins going AWAY from what had been working all afternoon cost them the game.

Careful, cuges........you're denigrating your highly espoused DC, Nolan. ;')
