Trent Dilfer was talking on one of the radio shows I listen to and he was commenting about the NFL concerns about Tebow. He said that the issue with Tebow is the fact that he has been a shotgun QB his whole career. He described it as, "Snap, drop & pop." He sadi that in college the OC reads the defense and picks the target. The QB just drops back two steps and throws it to the designated target. No real reading of defenses by the QB.
He said that there is often such a long time involved in a QB learning to read defenses from under center that they (NFL) are afraid to make the investment even for a talent like Tebow. He implied (may have actually said) that it can take years for such a transition.
Made me think about Weber and Gray and some of our issues this year.
