| I think it's all due to the OL... losing 2 starting senior tackles has really caused some serious problems. I rarely see a case of Tebow not reading a play properly, and just not seeing a WR... what I see is that by the time he wants to throw to anybody deeper than 20 yards, more often than not, he's running for his life. It's not that he isn't throwing to the open guy; he CAN'T throw to the open guy. That's why I'd like to see more roll out pass plays, and more quick slants. That slant to Coop worked perfectly yesterday, and you could tell USC wasn't expecting it, because we haven't run it all year. If you can't adequately protect your QB, those quick pass plays like that can be a savior to your offense, and a killer to an aggressive defense. But, as usual, once Addazio finds something that works really well, he turns around and throws the play right in the trash, and we never see it again. I would also point out that Coop dropped 2 sure TD's on deep pass plays that he should have caught, but didn't because of a lack of effort... all he had to do was lay out on either one. Hell, on the second one, he didn't even need to dive for it; he just needed to extend his da*n arms all the way and he'd have caught it... the pass was perfect. | ||

As for his PR-ing, most teams have avoided kicking it right to him. They finally learned their lesson; they're kicking it out of bounds, short, and rugby style... whatever it takes to avoid letting him get a good return. | ||

| Speaking of plays that work perfectly and get thrown away.... WTF happened to the inside shovel pass to Hernandez? That one is a serious gem that we've only used twice all year- and it was in the same game. I keep telling myself that Addazio has a post-season playbook that is seperate from the current one. A playbook that he doesn't want to open yet because we're so ridiculously confident in our defense. It's possible.....right? ![]() I won't pretend to know better than our coaches do, but I'm having trouble believing that our receivers are actually that bad. It's more likely on our offensive line, but still... the best I can say is that the coaches KNOW something isn't right and I have no doubt that they're making every possible effort they can to fix it. | ||

When he goes back to pass and does his check downs, the defense has already closed in on Tim's last option when that player should have the ball a few seconds before that. No player is going to make the perfect read every time but, Tim is making to many mistakes with that and I think it has hurt his confidence. Coach Meyer is a GREAT HC and The University Of Florida is blessed to have him but, in my opinion he needs to let Tebow be who he is, that's a QB that beats a team with his arm when he has to and just make plays. Go Gators! | ||

| I don't know if it has anything to do with it or not, but Tebow just seems a lil "slower" in his decision making ever since the concussion.At the first of the year he played very well and made smart decisions.I feel like he's holding back a little bit or maybe it's something worse...I have never had a concussion so I don't know how it effects the brain.All this may sound crazy to you guys, just an outsiders opinion on things. | ||

| Maybe Addazio is getting a little better as an OC but, he still needs to put Tebow in better situations. | ||

| My theory on this is simple. First off, the coaching staff has little faith in our WR core. This has filtered through to Tebow as he rarely if ever throws to a WR other than Cooper and Hernandez. When we line up 5 wide, its Cooper, Nelson, Hernandez, and 2 of Rainey/Demps/James/Moody. Yes, I have seen all of them lined up on the outside. My guess is this is to see who gets a CB/S and move them to the backfield to see how the D reacts. Regardless, when the ball is snapped, we dont have enough playmakers as WR on the field. I saw Hines catch a ball this weekend. I think it was his first reception from Tebow. He only saw action in the first two gimmie games, with the second stringers. Why? Where are the young WRs, why arent we playing them? Second, Tebow has regressed as a QB. He's not making good reads, hes holding on to the ball too long, hes not playing smart. The OL has been shaky at best, but Tebow hasn't been sharp. He's not reading blitz packages well. He is being ultra conservative and not letting the ball go. Finally, the play calling has been so conservative it makes George W.'s presidency look liberal. I guess the theory is ball control and relying on the defense. I've seen glimpses of brilliance with the offense. Problem is that its just a glimpse, then its back to Tebow Dive/Smash. Maybe they are saving something new for the real season. The SEC CG aka The NCG Play-In, and hopefully the NCG. | ||

| I never want to mess with Tebow but in my heart I would love to see Tebow and Brantley play. You know like 2006 with more plays for Tebow than Brantley. I also know Meyer really does not want to do that but it happen to Leak. There is not doubt Tebow is the best but even the best need help!!!!!! I want to be honest I feel Brantley got a raw deal at LSU . Just imagine if you prepared to be the starter and was let down!!! I still think Tebow is pushing way too much!!! | ||

| I don't think you have anything to worry about Florida fans. Come big game time.(2 post season games) tebow will have his team ready to go to beat bama and go on to win the NC. I wouldn't be worried about style points. But that's just my opinion | ||
