From Larry Brown Sports:
Tom Brady and Tom Martinez began working together when Brady was only 13 years old. Now he is Brady’s personal quarterback coach. Brady will not talk about the success he’s had in his career without crediting Martinez. According to Brady, he would not have accomplished the things he has accomplished without Martinez’s guidance. Martinez is quite ill now and in search of a kidney transplant, but he and Brady still communicate and work together regularly.
In a recent interview with 790 The Zone in Atlanta, Martinez said he is fully confident Brady will bounce back from a sub-par AFC Championship performance in the Super Bowl. What were more interesting, however, were Martinez’s thoughts on Tim Tebow.
“I think Tim Tebow is willing to do anything that people tell him to do,” Martinez said. “He’s like Brady in the sense that he’s an internal warrior. I think when he started in the NFL, whoever they put him with, I personally kind of disagree with the mechanics he was given. He’s trying to prove the same thing Brady was trying to prove. I could give him what I call correct mechanics in two weeks.”
Tebow needs to get on the horn with this guy — yesterday. We all know Tebow isn’t afraid to work, but we also have listened to the countless critics who say his style of play will never lead to sustained success in the NFL. Even his teammates realize he needs to improve his passing. With the right mechanics, Tebow could be even more of a star. Is there any quarterback coach on the planet right now with a better resume than Tom Martinez? If I’m Tim Tebow, I’m knocking on this guy’s door as we speak.
