It strikes me as highly ironic that what we have is a true 3rd round QB not starting his second year against two prior starting QB’s in the NFL. A former starting QB that has always shown promise in Preseason and practice in his 4th year in the league. Who in college played under Charlie Weise. Was a first round pick in 2007. Started and played for a dismal NFL organization under Crennel and Mangini who are no longer HC’s in the league. Now 4 years later he is once again playing well in the Preseason and in practice and looks promising enough to play QB2 for a team coming off of a 4-12 season. Sorry but even with my hope for Brady Quinn to get his shot at starting in the NFL again, these simple truths just do not point to any direction other than… He looks to be a career back up QB.

Now enter Tim Tebow. Going into his second year in the NFL, is being beat out by a starting NFL QB and now possibly Brady Quinn. And here we are acting as if the sky has fallen, well it has not. We are going into our second preseason game. We have 19 games left, and it will be all left out on the field. Last season, 3-10 without and 1-2 with Tebow. Ironically this overrated, never going to be good enough in the NFL won under a interim coach with plays being called by an offensive coordinator for the first time ever on a team only capable of winning 3 games with the more “conventional” approach. Wins and Losses are what matters to the fan base, as according to prior posts on this site, Tebow was able to produce 25% of our wins last season, while only starting for 18% of them.

Premium seating-must sell separately. I inquired a year ago, they called me about Feb with availability. Waiting list gets you in nosebleed section first then keep moving up.

It could be pee-wee herman under centre and I wouldn’t care, as long as he was winning us games………….

Now there’s a looker for you crushgirl! hahaha

I don’t favor one guy over the other……….and while I’m extremely emotionally involved with my Broncos, I am not nearly as emotionally involved with who starts at QB. Whoever plays the best is fine by me.

I remember a thing that nfl.com did a while back about some players looking like celebritiies……….and they said Orton looks like Dave Grohl……..and he kinda does! lol Orton is far from “My Hero” though.

TRB, about Quinn’s progress maybe being real, this was my clue:

He first sought counsel from longtime NFL and college offensive coordinator Paul Hackett. “Paul believes in developing a quarterback first as a human being,” Quinn said. “How you live off the field is as important as what you do on the field. He was really good as far as helping me with the psychology of playing quarterback.”

And why it rung a bell with me, back in the early 80s when I was on the world speed skiing tour, a couple of racers made tremendous improvements in their results and one got talking to me about the sports psychologist he’d been working with and the results were obvious. Build yourself a strong foundation in the head and if you have the talent, the rest will follow and this is what I saw in Quinn reading this article which has been backed up by his practices and game against Dallas. Bottom line I’m not just talking out of a feel or anything like that, there is more to it this time around in my opinion.

Well that was an insight into the world of sports athletes don’t usually like talking about, don’t underestimate the power of sports psychology, it was a revelation to me over 25 years ago, but it must be much more readily available now for those who seek it, and I would recommend it to anyone involve in top athletic endeavors. Not that Hacket is a sports psychologist but he sounds as if he learned the value of it somewhere, lucky for Quinn.
