What makes tebow great

Tebow, who last was an NFL player in , when he was cut in the preseason by the Eagles, is being brought back to the league by his former Florida coach, Urban Meyer. Since leaving the NFL, Tebow has spent the past six-plus years as a different kind of professional athlete — a minor league outfielder and designated hitter for the New York Mets. I am dedicated to taking the direction of the coaching staff and learning from my teammates.

I appreciate everyone's support as I embark on this new journey. So why would Meyer make this move, when reality says Tebow is a longshot to have an impact on the field at his advanced age and long layoff from the game? Here's digging deep to find anything that makes this move make sense. Let's start with the obvious. Tebow did win a Heisman Trophy in between two national championships with Meyer and the Gators in and Meyer has had many great QBs over his successful college career, including just-retired Alex Smith, but Tebow was his prized pupil as a dual-threat passer, leader and winner.

Tebow is the pride of Jacksonville in every which way. Logic would say the drafting of can't-miss Trevor Lawrence as the new franchise QB would provide plenty enough of needed positive feelings around Duval County. Tebow would be an incredible red zone quarterback, so it makes sense for this idea. Add that Tebow was actually offered the Hill role by the Saints before Hill was, and you can see there is something to this. So that will be interesting to see how that contributes to us on offense, too.

Obviously Urban knows Tim really well, and Tim has got a great history of winning. Urban really believes he can help us, and I think it makes a lot of sense. Meyer is banging the table for Tebow and thinks he could help the Jaguars. But could Tebow really help the Jaguars? Tim Tebow, leading the Denver Broncos to a mid-season turnaround, is one of the amazing stories from the National Football League this year. He has defied all odds and effectively ran a style of offense that most assumed could not work in the NFL.

Tim Tebow is not known for his passing ability. His unorthodox throwing motion, combined with his inaccuracy, made most analysts believe that he could not be a successful quarterback.

Tebow has the lowest completion percentage in the league, and the Denver Broncos run the ball more than any other team. How did this formula become a success? The Broncos have turned a season start with Kyle Orton as starting quarterback into a playoff bound team, with Tim Tebow at the helm.

Tim Tebow is a dynamic, influential leader and that is what makes him successful. Tebow was the main attraction Thursday, and that may have been a good thing for Lawrence.

The No. We all struggled, not just him, offensively. Several NFL teams suggested Tebow make the position change years ago, but he declined.

He finally switched after retiring from baseball in February.
