Taysom (sp?) Hill for the Saints clearly has an NFL career. Just seems like Tebow lite to me. What makes him a NFL QB when Tebow wasn't?

I watched that and thought "Tebow is a bigger basher than Hill." Not denouncing Hill's contribution, just noticing that use of Hill which was scoffed at 10 years ago. The NFL probably would have found a use for Tebow had Tim seen more uses for himself. ??

As long as we’re talking lefthanders, I’ll take Tebow over Brunell or Cade McNown.

If Tebow entered the draft today instead of 10 years ago he would get more opportunities. The "teams aren't changing their whole playbook for one guy" excuse doesn't play anymore. The NFL throws around phrases like RPO and zone read like they invented it.

Which is why you never had a chance in the Pros!
Of course we all know it was the receivers’ fault he couldn’t complete half his passes. It was also the receiver’s fault they scored in OT against Pittsburgh.

I don;t think that anyone classifies Hill as an NFL QB. If taking an occasionally snap makes you an NFL QB then so be it. But I think he is viewed as an excellent utility player and something I said over 10 years ago that Tebow would be good at and allow him a lengthy NFL career. the difference is that Hill was willing to accept being a 5 tool player and Tebow insisted on playing the QB position only. Neither is right or wrong. To each his own

Roster has him listed as a QB.

Not enough Lamar Jacksons out there to feed that frenzy.
