A lesser man would have walked away a long, long time ago. Not Tebow. I don't care what you think about the guy's quarterbacking skills, his life skills are off the chart.

Don't look now but this has more views than two of the sticky threads.

You should check out the list some time of the QB's actually currently employed by NFL teams. To think Tim Tebow couldn't squeeze onto that list, no matter how bad his throwing motion is, is laughable.

Tebow not listed among combine participants...could change with a week left though.

Exactly.
And somehow Ryan Fitzpatrick is still in the league...
To me Tim's problem was not necessarily throwing - it was throwing fast enough. Plenty of good QBs throw an ugly ball but they throw it efficiently and can read defenses very well.
Tim seemed to lack the mental acuity to make quick decisions back there. If that part has somehow improved then maybe he has a shot. But if he's still slow in picking up his reads and checking down then he might as well not bother.
And if he doesn't make it or even try ...then he'll be that much more accessible for my plans to get him to marry my daughter.
Win - win situation.

Tebow's ability to read defenses quick enough has been his biggest issues. You have to read and react. His motion while a low, is not really that much slower than Philip Rivers. If Tebow has learned to read defenses better, reading the whole field he would put himself in a better position to hang on to a job. The fever in which is following has died down, which will help him in a backup position.

Latest info does not include his name as a participant. I agree with the real time reading of defenses, I wonder if it has something to do with his learning disability. At UF having superior talent and a read option means that the reads are simple and many times your receiver is going to be open due to the match up, not so in the NFL. Take his TD in the playoff game, I bet it was the first option, play was designed to be open and with an accurate throw success was achieved. His accuracy into small windows is another issue. Simple!!

If there's one coach who continues to say "screw you" the elitist NFL traditionalists, it's Chip Kelly. I will be re-subscribing to NFL Sunday Ticket if Tebow makes the team.

Why? He wouldn't be the starter.

Can't believe he's throwing w/Sanchez again. Those two are polar opposites. If MS can cash an NFL pay check then TT should be able to too.

I just hope Tebow gives Bradford hell about beating him in Miami for the NC even though Bradford lucked out and won the Heisman that year.

He is Tebow so this is not happening. You think that Bradford has forgotten or really cares. I bet he is much more worried about all his injuries than anything else. I bet he has enough money for the rest of his life and one more injury he should retire.
