   Will Tim Tebow ever return to NFL as a quarterback?  The word is no team wants him.
   
   He was let go by Denver, New York Jets, and recently New England. Hopefully, he won't be a Heisman Trophy winner that nobody wants.

   I can't think of one quarterback that when given the opportunity to start, had a winning record.  Won a playoff game and then never started another game.  I hope Tebow isn't the first.  I'd sure like to see him get another shot.

      He deserves a few more chances at least. I sure like him.

   The history of football is replete with examples of wildly successful college quarterbacks who had little or no success as professionals.  It's an entirely different game in the NFL, and Tim Tebow--as great as he was in college--is not an NFL-caliber quarterback.  That's the simple truth.  No matter how badly he wants it, he will never have a career in the NFL as a quarterback--not in this life.  If he were willing to accept that fact and learn another position, he might have a shot at playing.  He's a great athlete, and he has the size to be a fullback or tight end.  Those are decent possibilities for him.  Quarterback is not.

      I hope he is willing to change positions for future success.

      I agree.  He's a good athlete and a good person.  I'd like to see him succeed, but so far, he's been hard-headed about it.  Hopefully he will change his mind.

   I think an AFL team wants him! I wish he can get one NFL team to sign him up!

   Probably not. Not as a starter anyway. There are quarterbacks who shine in college, but just cannot cut it at the professional level. Take Charlie Ward for instance, a fantastic college quarterback, but not even drafted. I think Tebow is a great man. But, not a good NFL QB.

   I don't think so.  I liked the way Denver used him when he played there.  But it would take a team that's committed to him as their starter because I don't think a lot of teams are looking for a running quarterback, a scrambling quarterback sure.  But Tebow's more of a bull than someone who buys time.
