2.  As far as waiting until receivers break free, he wasn't the only QB that did that, at least early in his career.  When explaining the difference between QBs Steve Walsh and Troy Aikman, Michael Irvin stated that if you ran a 15 yard out, Steve Walsh would probably throw the  ball at 8 to 10 yards, before you even made the cut.    But he said Aikman would throw the same pass at 15 because his arm was stronger.

None of this is to say TL is wholly without flaws.

But he is a rookie coming off of his first preseason game in his rookie year.  Give the man time to develop.

He didn’t get hit hard on those two sacks.

Read your last two sentences on him being a rookie then apply them to Tim and we will be on the same page.

It didn't appear so, but it's easy for us to say when we weren't the ones tackled.

As for the rookie thing, that is absolutely laughable.

TL is an actual rookie just out of college.

Tebow is 34 years old, played two seasons in the NFL as a QB, and decided on his own volition to try to change positions after a 9 year layoff.

When do the you Tebow cultists stop jumping on the grenade to defend this guy?!?

Even now, Tebow sychophants saw freaking first ballot Hall of Famer John freaking Elway somehow conspired to blackball Tebow from the league as a QB for reasons other than on field, football related reasons.

Now, when video comes out of embarrassing efforts doing one of the fundamental things a TE does-blocking-you trot out the he's just a rookie card.

Pathetic.
