Colin Kaepernick has just about the same throwing motion as Tim Tebow

And last year I was like this nikka Kap gonna flop because he throws it like Tebow. I figured he would just run a lot or scramble a lot. I was one of the people going :mindblown: when they went away from Alex Smith.

Basically Throwing mechanics don't mean shyt. Either you can throw or you can't.

Yea but Kaps release is a lot earlier, so he has control over where he throws, basically any pass over 20 yards is money, it's just that he has to get some touch on his short passes, fix that and the dude is the ultimate prototype.

he just makes up for it by being able to throw lasers.

dude can be late on a read and still whip it in there over the middle like :takedat:

throwing motion dont mean shyt. Its all about how fast the release is, accuracy and arm strength.


Tebow throws like he has small hands which is basically what led to Daunte Culpeppers down fall. He has a strong arm but I have to also question how he processes defenses. He was always late on his throws and tended to guide the ball. Either way it was never his throwing mechanics.

I feel bad for our WRs for anything under 10 yards. Kaep ain't got no understanding of how hard he's throwing.

Edit: It's perfect for Vernon and his body catching technique though.

Yeah Philip Rivers motion is unorthodox as well. But Tebow's motion was bad in Denver. He was bringing the ball so low w/ a big wind up that his release was late. Kap has a higher release along with an arm that also for a quick release
