It doesn't matter. At whatever point he fails will be the spot people say "I told you so." about him. If he were to win a Super Bowl they would want better stats and more Super Bowls. It will never end beacause of what he represents.
Sad but true. But for today anyway, there's a boatload of people eating crow. Let's revist, shall we?
Tim Tebow sucks.
Big time.
He will NEVER be a viable NFL QB.
Except when he torches the best pass defense in the league, extends plays to the tune of 50 rushing yards additionally, and wins not because of Denver's running game (McGahee's fumble and only 61 yards) or the defense (yes 5 sacks, but gave up 17 points and the lead in the second half).
Hot steaming garbage...with the faint aroma of broccoli and third world foreskins.
Sniff, sniff...smells like winning to me.
Unfortunately, he can't throw a football, the one main job of a quarterback. You just can't overcome a lack of talent in that one specific area.
He dropped the TD pass to Royal in a window the size of a bread basket. There's a lot of NFL QB's that would struggle making that throw with the coverage as tight as it was.
He won't get wins. You'll see. He will be garbage and something that I will "I told you so" forever.
He played like crap against our pathetic team. ...that's how pathetic he is.
Forever? Or just until now?
Luck is temporary. Good is consistent.
You may win 1 game on luck in the NFL. Maybe 2 games. But you have to have skill to win consistently.
The thing I don't understand is why so many people keep talking about this guy.
8-4 this year. Is he consistent yet?
Turn that around... If (or when) Tebow still looks like a horrifically untalented passer at the end of the season and Denver has a record of 4-12 or 5-11 (I just checked the schedule...Denver doesn't play Miami again), will all the people who have ignored his lack of QB talent in order to focus on his "leadership-morals-swell guy-college hero" come up here and admit they were wrong?
Not 4-12; not 5-11. Will you "come up here and admit you were wrong" now?
Nothing is wrong with it and he wins games. Can't deny that. But Week 1 next year no way Tebow is starting in Denver. Not a chance. It's a gimmick offense (like year 1 of the Wildcat in Miami)......come year 2 teams will be able to stop it.
There's NO chance someone other than Tebow starts for them in week one next year.
His stats show no promise as a QB. They show an ability to run the ball well.
His stats looked just fine to me.
The Broncos need every possible divine intervention that you can think of in order to win with Tebow as their QB:
- Moses splitting the red-sea
- Jesus performing miracles, turning water into wine
- Virgin births
- Re-incarnations
- David Tyree / Franco Harris-like catches
- Tom Brady "Tuck Rule"-like breaks
- Extra downs (like in that Michigan game some years back)
- Officials botching coin-flips (like Lions / Steelers on Thanksgiving)
...and all of this might still not be enough to win.
Oddly, they seemed to have quite a few interventions against them yesterday. The bad call on the backward pass and the missed facemask on Tebow immediately come to mind.
Brady Quinn getting HALF (yes HALF) the 1st team snaps this week in practice. Before a playoff game! WOW! Unheard of!! Looks like the coaches have little faith in Tebow at this point.
I missed Quinn taking snaps in the game. Must have been making food or something....wait- he didn't play? I thought he was taking all those practice reps?
That Steelers defense is gonna eat him alive.
He...nah, this one is too easy...next....
Tebow still sucks. Please stop with the "all he does is win" bullshit, because he is now 6-3 as a starter (not 4-1) and 6-3 as a starter is nothing to write home about. Stop saying "he's a winner" because he hasn't done shit yet in this league. Stop saying he has "values" and he's a "team leader" and he's a "team player", because the NFL has a lot of those guys. Stop it.
Start using your brains, people. Tebow still sucks. He's never going to win a Super Bowl, his team will never be that great, and he will never ever ever be a good NFL QB. He's a back-up QB on a shitty team playing against other shitty teams. So far this season, the Dolphins, the Chiefs, and the Jets all are mediocre or worse. The one good team, the Lions, completely killed him. You can't win a Super Bowl or a playoff game if you can only beat the shitty teams like the Dolphins.
Tim Tebow is still garbage, and just like the Wildcat fad of the 2008 season and the Michael Vick love fest of 2010, once teams start to game-plan for it, it's over.
Get it through your thick christian heads.
My head must be thicker than most. I swear he won a playoff game yesterday. I was SURE he beat a team that went to the Super Bowl last year, but they must have been "shitty" too, as you said. I'm glad all of you guys were here to straighten me out on this. Never ever ever be a good NFL QB is pretty harsh, but clearly, I've been wrong all year.
Absolutely don't care AT ALL if he goes 0-20, throws 10 INTs and fumbles 17 times against the Pats. Win or lose next week, he has proven that he deserves to be the starter this year and going forward.
