Better CFB QB: Tim Tebow or Vince Young

[Dustin]

This section will probably be dead until opening day. Trying to start some debate. Better QB: Tebow or Young?

[MTC]

Tim Tebow helped Florida win a lot of important bowls/games although I never saw him as the pocket passer quarterback. His style of play hasn't worked in the NFL. Tebow was pretty much a winner in college with the right system.

 

Vince Young, although not as successful in college than Tebow, was the best all around quarterback.

My money is on Curtis Painter.

My money is on Curtis Painter.

Had Painter come out the year before we drafted him, some had him pegged as a first round QB.  I think he wasn't as bad as he seemed here, but that the coaching staff did a poor job of adjusting the offense to his abilities

this isn't even close. Although Vince is a bust,m he did have a pretty good winning % and was rookie of the year. By far vince young. I honestly would consider taking curtis painter over tebow.

probably because he didn't have any abilities.

They could have simplified the offense for him.  I'm not trying to make the case that he's a starting QB in the league, but I think he is slightly better than what his tape in Indy shows

Yeah, but I'm talking simply as a college QB. Altho both are busts, they're arguably two of the top 5 QBs in college history.

Well I wouldn't say they are two of the best in HISTORY...but certainly in the last 10 yrs possibily. They ran that system to a T. I would go with Tebow because I think he was a better leader in college....rallying his guys...but certainly Vince was more athletic.

Best game I ever saw a college qb play was Young in the 06 Rose Bowl. He carried Texas over a loaded (and arguably much more talented overall) USC squad.
