Tim Tebow and the CBA Lockout: Will This Be a Bump in the Road or a Roadblock?

With the CBA still seemingly a long way from settled, what will this mean for Tim Tebow's immediate and longer term future?

He was able to spend much of last season under the tutelage of his mentor and believer Josh McDaniels, who traded up to get for him in the first round of the 2010 NFL draft. Some say that was a stretch, but it is what it is, and it certainly wasn't Tebow's fault.

Then, Josh was gone, Orton was injured, and Tim got some playing time when it counted, kind of. By the time he was starting, Denver was out of the playoffs and was shown to be a team with a decent offense but a lousy defense.

And given the chance to play in the last three games, here was an opportunity to see where Mr. Tebow was in his progression from a college player to an NFL QB.

Let's take a look at those games and what they showed us and then discuss where he is in his progression at this time, given the ongoing lockout.
