Ummm, the first pic is just about exactly the same as the Manning pic I posted. Slightly different viewing angle, and of course, Tebow is a left so it looks weird.
I was reading through this thread and looking at the pictures it looks like the long snapper was knocked down by a Rams player who was blocked into him. I don't know all the players on special teams though. Had to remove the pics because I don't have enough posts.
I'll go back and look at it again and see. FTR, think you have to get up to 50 posts for that (but don't let that info cause you to postwhore just to get there, as you can get banned for that ) Just wanted to give you the FYI as it really bugged me wondering what the minimum was
It looks to me like the Jets player on the right end(#50 something I can't tell ) pushed his man clear over into the longsnapper and either knocked him down or tripped him up.
Could be. Or, the defender could have attacked both the guard and the center. Point still remains that just because the base D was in, doesn't mean the fake should have been called off.
I'm no Tebow fan whatsoever & of the strong opinion that he's not even a viable option as a bk-up qb either. I loathed that day the Jet "brain-trust" traded for him thinking they would be able to design off. sets based on his WildCat skills displayed @ Denver last year that would yield success. We've all seen how that's worked out. Total FAIL!! As much as I despise Tebow being on the Jets, I do sympathize with his "disguised" frustration somewhat over the CS absolute lack of recognition of & underutilization of his limted but useful skill set. How can they expect Te to get any sort of "flow" if he's only used on 5-7 random & ineffective off. plays per gm? Either give him a series+ or sit his @ss down & give him a clipboard for the remainder of the season. At the same time, Te must realize that the CS has no faith in his qb "skills" as evidenced by their "do or die" commitment to Sanchez and his hope of becoming a starter based on a Sanchez fail is now a moot point. Resign himself as a "gimmick" or move-on (I HOPE he move's on!). What Te should really do is this; practice & refine his passing skills EVERY DAY, ALL DAY til he get's it right! Work on arm strength, finesse/touch passing, passing on the run across yr body, long/short passing accuracy, pass-the-peas, pass the bar, pass the potatos, passing gas , pass whatever just do it! Do whatcha' have to do to "pass" all the haterz & doubters (like me)!
If you are going to give Tebow entire series, you may as well just go ahead and make him the starter. Putting him in already disrupts the flow of Sanchez, almost everyone on this website agrees with that. Start sitting him for an entire series "might" help Tebow out, but NEITHER will get into any sort of a rhythm. If you have a 2 QB system, it means you have NO QB.
I didn't think so, but I noticed you ignored the rest of them. I don't blame you though, cuz he looks rediculous in them. What is your excuse for the one with him next to Sanchez? It isn't just the behind the head thing either. His throw starts waaaaaay back with him reaching to the endzone behind him, and somewhere in the throw, it gets cocked way behind his head, then the throw becomes some sort of catapult shot put with his whole body into the throw with crappy footwork. NOBODY throws like THAT from beginnig to end even if you can find pics of better QBs who also pull the ball way back, or look similar in one or two places... or have the ends of the ball pointing the other way (which I couldn't care less about, so I don't know why you keep arguing that one.) Whoever complained that the front nose of the ball is pointing backwards at the beginning is just wrong. It's the whole friggin motion, but that behind the head thing leaves a lot to be desired for sure. Frankly, I'm amazed he hits anything at all.
What's my excuse ? Are they throwing to roughly the same spot on the field ? Surely looks like Sanchez is loading up to throw a long one and Tebow is throwing shorter. That, or Tebow has a bigger arm and doesn't have to put as much into the throw. It's actually funny the lengths that some of you all go to, and how no matter what, you can't be convinced. Didn't this thread start out with someone claiming that the the ball being upside down and pointing backwards shows how terrible Tebow's throwing motion is ? That got smacked aside, but some of you all still had to try and argue about it. Then we have the issue of the "javelin" throw where the ball is pointed up in the air behind is head. Lo and behold, a shot of Peyton Manning doing that very thing while passing the ball. The simple fact of the matter is that some of you all have no fucking clue what you are talking about.
Yeah, but that wasn't me that brought that up and I thought it was inconsequential compared to the concerns I had with his throwing. Besides, in some of those pics, not only did he have the ball completely behind his head, he's looking slightly to his right. So not only does it have to come OVER his head, which I think is awkward for a throw even straight ahead, he has to twist just to get it into the same zip code as his target. Remember, another criticism against him is on throwing to the right side of the field. No wonder. Look at him. Maybe it's you who have no idea what you are talking about. Maybe you just need to keep telling people that to convince yourself. Something is keeping him from hitting recievers...
Yes, they do, but it's the Tebow D.S. (Double Standard) at work. The Tebow D.S. says, among other things, that you cannot compare Tebow to another NFL QB - ANY NFL QB - unless the comparison is negative to Tebow.
sanchez plays horrible all season long in his 4th straight season and is nothing but excuses. tebow comes in for THREE plays, doesnt make a huge impact, and is flamed for it.
Really ? I don't know what I'm talking about ? I notice that you've been kind of quiet on the subject of "body language". I wonder why that is ? Perhaps it's because as has often been the case, and as I said previously, you spout a bunch of crap without knowing what you are talking about. That was just another in a long list of examples.
Okay, point conceded. (Not hthat I had more than a comment or two on that particular subject.) I guess the whole team looks deflated for some reason during a win. I thought Tebow was supposed to be "Mr. Morale" booster. The great leader people just can't help but being giddy around? Mr. Rah rah motivational man must have had a bad day for some reason. Wonder why, if winning was all that mattered to him? Wasn't that supposed to be one of the perks for having him around? Or can that ONLY happen once he gets the job by default again? Where is that extra "spring" in their step?
Putting aside that his leadership was never really about being "rah rah," it's not important to jump around all giddy when the win is in hand. That game was well in hand and there's just nothing to be read into facial expressions. The time to be animated or energetic is when you are LOSING or close to it, when it's time keep up hope, to keep up effort, to reach down and give more than you have thus far. Tebow has never, ever been about jumping around all giddy when his team is ahead. He's the one that will jump up and show some spark when the game is still in doubt, when the outcome hangs in the balance.
