I think people miss the point about the Tebow hype. The hype isn't that he's an amazing quarterback that leads his team to victory. The hype is that he's NOT a very good quarterback that plays terribly for 3 quarters and pulls off come from behind victories in the 4th quarter week after week.

I'm sorry but you can't say that the Tebow hype isn't warranted because he blows. If a quarterback blows but his team was 7-1 then that is an incredibly fascinating story. Packers' fans love the complain that Rodgers deserves the spotlight over Tebow. Why should we care about the Rodgers story? Yeah he is having possibly the best year of all time, but it's not THAT much better than Brady's '07 year or Manning's '04 year, or even Brees's current year. It's a story we've heard before. I want to hear the story about the quarterback that can't complete half his passes and struggles to throw a spiral yet has taken a 1-4 team to a playoff contender since he started. Entertaining as fuck.

Here's why it's fun:

Remember the movie Braveheart? Remember before the big battle, they were outnumbered 3 to 1, they have inferior soldiers that don't really know how to fight properly. You have inferior stats, just like Tim Tebow's passing percentage.

Now imagine the Scottish screaming TEBOOOOOW!, and knowing that despite being behind and in a worse position, they have the English exactly where they want them, and they just KNOW they're going to fucking win.

Now imagine after the battle, the English asking themselves, "what the fuck just happened?" Tim Tebow.

Also works for say Helms Deep in Lord of the Rings (Gandalf is Tim Tebow?), the Rocky movies, just about any underdog story.


Anytime you're behind in a game or sport against a better player/team, just scream TEBOW and just pull a win out of your ass.

Lol I'd be excited if it was like that, but Tebow and Braveheart imo just don't belong in the same sentence. Guy is just too shitty.

I made some good money off a couple Tebowmaniacs this weekend. They were silly enough to give me 1:1 odds on NE . The one time the Tebows faced a team with an offense performing well, they got STOMPED (hehe). NE > Detroit, so the result was obvious.

It is just amusing to see how he time and time again proves his doubters wrong by pulling out victory after victory. This guy is like the exact opposite of Lebron James, having no fantastic or even average skill but showing up in the fourth quarter.

You think you got it bad? Try being a Chiefs fan living in Denver lol. My mom and I were talking on the phone about how we wanted the Broncos to lose extra bad this past week just because we are sick of Tebow, and our wish was granted.

In unrelated news the Chiefs (5-8) beat the Packers (13-0). The Kansas City Chiefs, continuing to not make sense now and forever.

well its certainly the most important position in football. and anyways that has nothing to do with the point I was trying to make. The broncos went from 1-4 to 8-6 and playoff contenders in the afc when Tebow was the starter

exactly. I remember when he started and my friend and I watched his first game and were impressed by his running game. I don't know why people hate him based on what the media has done. He's done his job fairly well.

Personally, I hope Tebow "leads" the Broncos to the playoffs and they lose a heartbreaking game in the 1st or 2nd round. However, next year, when all of the fans are anticipating a great season; the other shoe drops and they go about 4-12 with Tebow putting up nearly identical status but not somehow squeaking out victories.

in addition to their simple offense probably being figured out over the course of a full year, the Broncos will also play some tougher opponents next year

This is how I feel this whole thing will play out as well. The guy just hasn't gotten as good as he should be and "making the rest of the team better to carry your shitty ass" can only go so far.

Regardless of how good Tebow actually is he's easily one of the best I've seen in recent times at getting his team to believe/support him. If you have a QB that the rest of the offense believes in you'll have a decent team. It could even help the defense too.

Ideally what will happen is when/if they win their division they will have to play the other division winners and have a much harder overall schedule. Next year for instance they play against the AFC North, so Pittsburgh & Baltimore will be real challenges and possibly Cincy if they continue to develop with Dalton and Green. For the NFC they will play the NFC South with ATL and NO as solid teams. So thats 4 tough opponents at the very least.

Like I said earlier Denver has good veteran leadership on their team overall. They have no T.O. type players to stir up useless drama.

I just don't understand the Tebow hate, other than when it comes from anti-religious types.

I mean, this is a guy that will never be caught with drugs, will never beat someone up, will never be out getting multiple DUIs, will never rape someone or torture dogs... but we have to hate him because he happens to be Christian.

Then people say he's "too open about it"...

I see these guys every single sunday tackling someone when their team is behind by 40+ points, and the retard that just tackled that guy has some retard celebration planned and he does it without thinking "hey, I'm getting TROUNCED right now"... and everyone loves it. Tim Tebow decides to bow on the sidelines and be open about his religion and suddenly it's "how arrogant, ugh what a POS."

Chargers fan here and I can admit that the guy is a miracle. He's a straight up miracle.

The religious stuff is not even a reason I dislike him. Hell 90% of players/musicians/actors all talk about their beliefs/thank god for their award etc.. And again my dislike is not about how he conducts himself off the field. I respect that he genuinely seems like a dude on the up and up. ESPN talked about how he invites a fan & family going through troubles and hangs out with them after the game and talks regardless of win or lose. That stuff is good to hear. They(athletes) are community eladers whether they like it or not. I also like the little piece they did on Braylon Edwards. He gives 100 10,000$ scholarships to kids in high school for college. I never knew about it. Since his salary from the 49ers this year is "only" 1million he is playing for free this year to honor his commitment.


My dislike about the mania is the fact that people talk like he is a good quaterback. He just is not. He has the drive to be good, but lacks the necessary skills to be a legitimate qb in the league.
