Tim Tebow’s
move to the New England Patriots makes a lot of sense to me. I’ve always been
puzzled by the disdain some have to his abilities. He is not a classical
quarterback, he’s different. But one thing he has consistently shown is an
ability to make things happen when it matters.
I’ve
said before that a few years ago I stumbled across some College Football on TV, Tebow got my attention and is largely responsible for
my interest in College Football From when I first saw him it was clear he was
different but also a winner. This difference is part of the problem he has. I
believe that a team that builds it’s offence specifically for Tebow would be
successful in the long run. The problem is that this takes time, and time is
something that coaches in the NFL don’t always have.
This is why
the Patriots move makes sense. Tebow is not going to start for a while but can
play a role. And the Patriots have a coach who is secure enough in his job to
spend time developing that role. A year or two down the line and we could well
find the Patriots have another dangerous weapon on offence.
