Former Washington Redskins quarterback Joe Theismann was interviewed in 1010XL of Jacksonville, FL, and made some inflammatory comments about former Florida Gators quarterback Tim Tebow and head coach Urban Meyer.

Theismann, according to Pro Football Talk, said Tebow should have retired after his senior season at Florida. “Rock star status preserved,” he said, while also saying that his mechanics are “poor” and that Tebow’s pride and ego are too great for him to retire before giving it a shot in the NFL.

“Obviously at Florida they don’t teach throwing the football,” Theismann continued. He added that Meyer and the Gators coaching staff has “no clue” how to prepare a quarterback to play “at the next level.”
