    I'll produce the evidence later on today when I have some time.

    People thought it. People posted it.

    Brian Griffin, that missed opportunity on the flea flicker is when i fell off the bsndwagon. That play, and the rest of the game, he looked frozen in the pocket, unable to pull the trigger. And since the first quarter of the New England game, he's been unable to make play with his feet. Regression when he needed to show progression. And he has zero margin for error to make any turnovers.

    Oh well, i enjoyed watching some of the plays he made earlier. It was fun for a few games.

    So you have a bunch of innocuous quotes that don't ever rise to the level of someone saying he's "so good" and one quote from Devil, who enjoys saying wacky stuff regularly, saying you have to build your team around him if they make the playoffs.

    I'm even more confident in my position. The people sucking off Tebow and saying he was "so good" weren't on this board.

    This seems like it has become a semantic argument.

    When people repeatedly say that he has an innate ability to win, or that his particular skill set could work in the NFL, to me that's saying he's "so good." No one says he's a great passer, that's true. Although people stepped close that edge after the win against the 1985 Chicago Bears. Oops, I mean the 2011 Minnesota Vikings. Easy mistake to make if you followed that game on here.

    "The guy wins."

    "Tebow just wins."

    I see people here arguing that Jack Morris should be a Baseball Hall of Famer, based on the same logic.

    I wonder if Tebow might have a future as an NFL tight end. Don't know anything about his hands, but he's a big, strong, physical guy.

    For Denver, this is absolutely the worst-case scenario. Make the playoffs, but barely, and do it with Tebow not showing a whole lot of progression from start 1 to last week.

    Making the playoffs always a good thing. But the Tebow has been so thoroughly exposed the past few weeks. He definitely does not have the starting job locked up for next year.

    As was said last night: The jig is up. It's over. Fool's gold.

    With Tim Tebow leading the Broncos to the AFC West title, it's a fair question to ask - Is Tim Tebow the worst division winning QB in NFL history?

    OK, DD, I will say more wacky shit.

    Who is the Week 1 starting QB in Denver next year?

    I say it's Tebow, and I think he has earned the job. Is he Joe Montana? No. Is he worth a shot? Yes.

    And if it's not Tebow, then who is your starting QB?

    I love people who scream that there is a problem but cannot give a solution.

    Do you still believe he is in the top 15 QB's in the league?

    This could be the best thing that could have happened to him. Maybe there is a little more arrogance in him than he ever shows publicly and he thinks he can get it done "his way" and that all these "football people" are wrong.

    Well, now he knows. He needs to straighten out his delivery and throw more consistently accurate passes. He needs to read progressions like any other QB.

    Maybe on some level it will sink in and things will click mentally in the off-season and we'll see REAL progression come next July in training camp.

    I don't think you were going to see much progress from him as a passer this year because Denver has been protecting him. When he didn't throw that pass to Decker, it's not Urban Meyer's voice he was hearing in his head, it was John Fox's.
