I like that Tebow believed in Burrow for Heisman before anyone else

[@michaelkirshner3099]

He was the same with Kyle Trask I think. Can't blame him lol

[@mikeparkerson1497]

As a two-time winner, he should know the goods when he sees the goods! You can see him standing in the back row,, second from the right, of former winners there to validate Joe's inclusion.

[@mikeparkerson1497]

Tebow has become someone I respect a lot more now than I did when he was giving LSU fits on the gridiron. I've always wondered why he was so dead set on being a quarterback. Nobody told him about Paul Hornung maybe. Can't imagine he got two Heisman without learning about the Notre Dame. winner who was drafted by Green Bay and turned into a halfback who occasionally threw passes and kicked all the field goals and exptra points. Did he punt too? I can't remember. But if he could give up quarterbacking for the good of the team, why couldn't Tebow? That's a sde issue now. Tebow has a good head and his in-season call on Burrow's qualifications fot winning the Heisman was spot on. He's a much better analyist that the idiots who can't seem to add two and two without getting one!

[@mikeparkerson1497]

BTW: when Hornung was in the NFL, he led all players in scoring every year.

[@brandonvasser5902]

I remember getting hyped at the start of the year when Burrown went from 1/300 Heisman odds to like 1/50 and then after Texas he was like 1/12. By the end is basically became a lock.

[@brandonvasser5902]

I started at LSU in 2010 and my entire family on both sides and grandparents went there. I’m a pessimist always watching the games but the start of that 2019 season idk something changed in me or if it was what I was seeing. But for the first time I truly believed “this was our year” and jumped all over the Burrow wagon and was towing it along until my friends started to see it. I’d heard over the summer our offense was looking completely different and Joe had already stood out last season as the best quarterback I can remember at LSU. I lost of alot people in 2020, family, friends. But we will always have that season together. When Joe stepped up in that pocket at Texas and launched we froze and we all saw the greatness In that moment and it was party bus LSU from that point on and he NEVER cracked. We always made the excuse that “all we needed was a quarterback” and when it finally happened, the rest is history.

I spent a freshman year on the LSU campus never knowing how close to the river I was.

How true. As Joe pointed out, football is more a team sport than perhaps any other. He'd have been a nobody if his O line hadn't kept him on his feet and his wide-outs hadn't caught his passes. He through more than half his TD passes to guys who were pretty welll covered by the opposing teams' DBs. Joe doesn' t have a rocket arm but he can drop a completion into a reciiever's hands only inches clear of a breakup or interception. He threw more accurately than any other QB of that year!
