Would Tebow be right fit for Panthers?


Rod Butsecks

(By Charles Chandler, [email protected]) Perhaps the most decorated college football player of our time is quickly becoming one of the most scrutinized prospects of the upcoming NFL draft class.p/The Golden Calf of Bristol, Florida's all-universe quarterback, has begun the process at the Senior Bowl this week of trying to convince NFL teams he can make the transition from the Gators' spread offense to a pro-style attack.

I find it funny that people were all over Pat White last year as a wildcat quarterback and how good he could be and for my money The Golden Calf of Bristol is better than White any day.

I think he would be great as a backup and change of pace guy. He can throw the ball decently although he looks bad doing it and can run over people as well as around them. He would actually give the wildcat some teeth. Given we run as often as we do he might actually fit in here better than other places. What I like about him that I didn't like about White is his size. White was pretty small and had trouble seeing over the line. Tebo is 6'3" and 245. They are projecting his 40 time around 4.5-4.6. It will be interesting how he does in the combine. He could run the option, reverse, play fullback and throw the ball.

First rounder/ No. But 3rd rounder? I would take a shot perhaps.

    • For Bryce’s obvious shortcomings (bad pun), there is upside to his game. This isn’t being a homer or apologists, but I like to consider myself fair in criticism.  He’s far tougher than I ever thought he’d be. I really thought homie would have been broken in half by now. I don’t know how he’s not, but he’s not.  He is prone to turning the ball over early in games which digs a huge hole the team is not built to come back from, but dude DOES come up with crucial first down in crucial situations. It’s NEVER pretty, but he just kind of has the shining. He gets bailed out LOTS, and the team still loses games because of him, but he’s a bit of an enigma. He’s a turnover machine that is clutch in big moments.  He’s a smart/elusive cat. He kind of has to be with his limitations. His audibles are almost always correct and he understands coverages. I don’t see him getting fooled too frequently. His turnovers are almost never the ‘damnit Jake/Cam!’ brand we have been accustomed to. They are ALWAYS due to his size/strength limitations.  Strip sacks that shouldn’t be. Picks that happened because he just don’t got that NFL arm. He is still prone to panicking and the wheels can and do fall off at a much higher rate than his peers.  The team is winning on the backs of the defense, running game and special teams… but they’re winning, and unbelievably 1 game behind Tampa. As long as this is happening and Bryce doesn’t go full meltdown, Dave is going to keep him in. He is not getting pulled. 
    • This was a terrible podcast. A bunch of uninformed homers that had worse takes than the bottom 10% of the Huddle. I listened to a handful of podcasts this past offseason in search of new Panthers material since John Ellis doesn't do his pod anymore and The 4 Man Rush don't either. Immediately deleted it after the handful I listened to. Truly terrible.
    • The NFC South was so bad it sent a team with a losing record to the Playoffs that year. Wilks had players playing hard at the end but let’s not act like that was a good season. That season hurts even more now that we see in hindsight how good our QB situation was. We just didn’t know it.
