Fri, 04 Feb 2011 20:42:22 -0800

Denver Broncos vice president of football operations said Friday, Feb. 4, that it is going to take time for QB Tim Tebow to be great in the NFL, reports Dave Krieger, of The Denver Post. "Tim, as I've said, is a guy that is a very good football player," Elway said. "He is not a great quarterback yet. Hopefully we can make him a great quarterback, but I think that's going to take some time, first he needs to learn to pass like an NFL quarterback should pass, right now he's clueless. Next he's going to have to understand the playbook, at this time he is have a great deal of difficulty understanding what x means and what o means." But Elway added, he's got a great work ethic and believes in God so that's gotta count for something.
