    That's correct. The Broncos wouldn't go nine years between winning seasons like the 49ers.

    Yes but that also means the 49ers have been loading up on top draft prospects for 9 years so Harbaugh had a pool of talent to work with his first year. No other NFL coach probably had that except maybe Jim Schwartz when he went to the Lions.

    Urban, I don't think you should've went to OSU when you cited health concerns as your excuse to stop coaching at UF. Agree to disagree.

    Not to mention saying he wasn't going to coach again until all his kids graduated H.S, which they haven't.

    Urban was afflicted with a rare disease called "Nomo-tebow"

    Even when he made the decision he was obviously leaving to avoid a rebuild and take a better job later on.

    Did someone seriously compare tebow to cam?

    Gtfo

    Carolinas defense was swiss cheese and cam is a top 10 qb as long as he doesn't regress from his rookie season.

    If you need a qb you take cam newton over tebow 10 times out of 10.

    Maybe urban meyer can try to run his system with tebow in the pros. If he thought he had heart problems than.

    Tebow is a fullback who can throw bombs. That's about it.

    I've always said he's not a franchise qb. Player yes. Qb no. I've also always said if anyone has the work ethic to prove me wrong its tim tebow.

    I just don't plan on eating that crow.......ever.

    Not only did Can exceed expectations as a rookie quarterback, even one drafted first overall, but he handled the attempts by various media sources to assassinate his character with class and dignity.

    ...? I hope you're joking... Where do you think the 'wildcat' came from? Miami got it straight from Malzahn I believe.

    I have to clarify that the spread less by school and more by system. Urban brought the spread to UF and he's been using it ever since his days at Bowling Green.

    Not joking.

    It's a variation of the Single Wing, invented by Pop Warner long ago. "Wildcat" is the name given when the Dolphins started running it in 2008.

    So the idea that the Urban Meyer's spread option takes components of the Wildcat and combines them with West Coast Offense is a misnomer at best, silly at worst.

    But I understand -- it's common for many fans to use the term "wildcat" as synonymous with a lot of things in a broad sense. In this case, it is inaccurate. Because you tied it very specifically to the 2008 Florida offense, as if they were actually drawing upon the Dolphins "Wildcat" at that time.

    There are now people on this board who would compare Tebow favorably to Roger Staubach. It's not Tebow mania, it's the twilight zone.

    I am the one who made the comparison and being as kind I can with the next comment :

    I have been a Cowboy fan for 35 years . I saw Staubach take the field and forgot more about him this morning than most people on these boards know about him period.

    Throwing is not the only thing that makes a quarterback and leader

    Roger and Tebow have many things that parallel.

    Leadership intangibles
    Deeply religious
    Comebacks ( Roger was nicknamed captain comeback and Tebow set the all time record for 4th quarter comebacks in first 16 starts )
    Illusiveness in the pocket and the ability to extend plays with legs


    I'll stand by what said.

    Well, Tebow does have the jump pass in his arsenal.

    I saw a lot of the Dodger's career, too, but I was rooting for Jack Youngblood to tear his head off. I became a fan of Staubach's the day he retired.

    Jack a legendary hall of famer if there ever was one .

    Jack Youngblood has something pretty big in common with Tebow if I remember correctly :grin:
