It wasn't a laser and the three Pats were each about 5 yards from the receiver.
How? B/c he only threw for 50% against the worst Pass Defense in the league and the Pats best pass rusher out of the game?
Did you see some of his passes yesterday? I remember one that was a laser to a receiver with 3 patriots around the receiver. I yelled at the TV "keep saying he can't pass!" I swear all the tebow haters crack me up, it's like they don't even watch him play. I'm not saying he's great or that he ever will be, but he's a lot better than the haters make him out to be.
Broncos lost to a team they were supposed to and Tebow had a great performance passing.

Hell, I remember the stats from the 1st quarter and Tebow's were MUCH better than brady's.

I hope things fall into place to make that Denver-KC game to be as interesting as it could be.
I'm not sure what I would find more ruthlessly enjoyable.....
Having Orton go for a 300 yard + 2 or 3 TD game and knocking Denver out of the playoff race.
Or having Denver sneak into the playoffs, and then getting absolutely destroyed by a Baltimore or Pittsburg team in front of an enormous audience.
I love the whole Tebow phenomenon and think it's really good for the NFL and its fans. Just look at this thread! It's really interesting how his run of success challenges conventional NFL QB wisdom, even if it is more chimera than enduring reality.
No matter what, you simply have to hand it to this young man as to how he's made the very most of what opportunities to win the games he's been in have handed him. His run has been real-life awesome.
He's delivered. That's nothing to sneeze at.
Whatever else finally shakes out about his long-term suitability to fill a position that primarily requires elite-level passing prowess, I admire how he's risen to the occasion.
But the absolute biggest treat here will be watching spidey implode and melt down into a steaming puddle of salty tears and crazed partisan regret when the photos of Tebow going down on a naked, Neil Patrick Harris on a dirty and torn anarchist flag in a seedy corner of some mythical /OccupyDenver encampment while screaming, "Single-payer health care for everyone!" and "Canada Rulezzz" come out! :awe:
It's a wild stretch, I know. But if Tim Tebow has taught us anything, it's that anything is possible. ()

haha wow ... did you really just put Tebow in the same category as Rodgers, Brady and Brees? and why the hell did you spell it Bree's?
I spelled it Bree's cause I'm an idiot. As for putting Tebow in the same category, I was simply making a point that even the best QB's lose. So for Tebow to have lost 2 games so far really isn't that bad. Everyone losses sometimes. To expect anything else is just silly.
jason campbell had a 6-2 start for the redskins a couple years ago.
the skins had to win 5 games in a row to make it to the playoffs a few years back, and todd collins lead them to that when campbell was injured.
tebow is just having a streak right now that won't last, just like those 2 guys above did, who are average/lower tier qb's, if that.
tebow is not a good quarterback, but he is good at finding ways to win (sometimes).
I hear what you're saying... I just think he will keep it up long term. Unlike some in this thread, I don't think he's played THAT WELL. I think he has a LOT of improving to do. The thing is, I think he can and will improve. He has the desire to succeed, he's smart, he's not going to let success go to his head and he has intangibles. That combined with the fact that he has tremendous vision and running ability and I think you have a QB that is going to get better and continue to win (not every game, but in general).
Now, the Bronco's will most likely make the playoffs. And if they do, they probably will and should lose in the first round. Let's be completely, 100% honest. The Broncos, as a team, are very very poor. Look at what they have done over the last two years without Tebow. They've lost, repeatedly and horribly. They traded their only good WR. They have inexperience all over the field and their defense is AVERAGE. They defense seems better now because they play a ball control offense most of the time. But that defense was atrocious prior to Tebow taking over. To say they are a good defense now is a joke, they are average.
IF the coaching staff gets behind Tebow.. and I mean really gets behind him, if they can bring in some talent on offense and improve on defense a bit more, I think you have a legitimate team that can compete. Not because of Tebow, but with Tebow. What they have now though, they will continue to struggle to get wins, but will get more than they should BECAUSE of Tebow.
It makes me LOL that most of those guys are even starting quarterbacks in the NFL. It must suck to be a fan of one of those teams
yeah pull up the dregs of the league and even Tebow is comparatively elite. On second thought, probably not.yeah, really sucks to be a fan of SF and Houston right now.
:hmm:
bear in mind: that hilarious list has a pile of 2nd and 3rd string QBs thrust into backup roles. Many of these aren't starting QBs that Cuda is trying to compare to Tebow.
Is the thread title wrong? No one expected him to go undefeated all season long. Was the thread title eventually going to be wrong no matter what? I still think it's true. He's 7-2 this year. All he does is win, in my book. Does that mean he won't lose some games? Sure he will. But he's still just a winner.
Do I think he's an elite QB, no. Do I think he's a good QB that is overly hated on, hell yes! The dude is a mid level qb with top notch running skills. Right now, he is a better overall QB than:
Josh Freeman
Christian Ponder
Tyler Palko
TJ Yates
Dan Orlovsky
Blaine Gabbert
Rex Grossman
Kaleb Hainie
Kevin Kolb
Tavaris Jackson
Matt Moore
Ryan Fitzpatrick
Mark Sanchez
Alex Smith
Sam Bradford
There are probably a few more that I'm missing, but point is he is a better overall QB than at least half the current starting QB's in the NFL. Yet you have people saying he shouldn't even be in the NFL and definitely shouldn't be a starter. That's bullshit, plain and simple.

Hooray, he's better than a pack of horrific QB's.
Most people don't hate him because they think he's worse than Tyler Palko. I hate him because he's an average QB getting more pub than anything in sports because he's religious and religious people do stupid things like this.

His play does not warrant a 10 minute highlight reel. It simply doesn't.
I think the Broncos will still make the playoffs, with winnable games left vs Buffalo and KC. The Raiders are still the Raiders, and the Chargers have dug perhaps too big a hole to climb out of.agreed. michael vick and cam newton are more deserving of a highlight reel.
i also agree that the media is f'n stupid for glossing over the year that Brees shows the he is arguably the best QB in the league. huge milestone for him and the players around him. the guy is a class act.
tebow...all he does is wear his religion on his sleeve, make shitty passes, and run around the field.
So, Tebow is a better backup replacement Qb than the pile of backup/replacement QBs in this odd year?Man I just went down the list of CURRENT starting QB's. You say they are shitty starting qb's, well guess what? That's what we have in the NFL nowadays then. The bottom line is this, anyone who says Tebow shouldn't be an NFL starter is freaking crazy, because there are a ton of other QB's who become starters that are much worse than Tebow.
There are not 32 Tom Brady's in the league. There are 10 elite QB's than you have the rest. Tebow as toward the top of 'the rest' and has a lot more upside than the others.

He is getting pub. because he was hated on so much. Then people rose to his defense and he got more pub. Now he's getting hated on even more because he's polarizing.
The first set of people that hated on him were completely wrong though.
