    Bingo. Especially the last sentence. The wingnuts can only see all the good and they're not watching the games, his overall performance. And that's what makes it so aggravating.

    I'm a fan of Tebow the person. I'm not a fan of Tebow the quarterback. Because he's terrible overall in the position and does not give the team the chance to win consistently long term unless he dramatically upgrades his game at the position.

    Sorry, I'm a numbers guy, but QB rating rewards game managers with and punishes risk takers. I'll admit I didn't run the numbers and am working off memory, which is dangerous and I realize that I could be wrong here, but his career reminds me a bit of Clemens (minus steroids, unsubstantiated accusation above notwithstanding). I know he had great numbers with the Yankees, and he got a ring there, but he wasn't anywhere near as impressive as he was falling short with Boston or Toronto.

    Can't they both take the one-way shuttle to the sun?

    The good news is Bayless is now a better person from having spent five minutes with Tim Tebow.

    It's not hard to imagine that Elway lacks respect for Tebow, as a quarterback who threw the ball with such authority it left marks on receivers' chests. It's not just a generation gap but a fundamental clash of styles. Those asinine tweets show the Tebow freaks can't be reasoned with. As is the case with most cultists.

    The guy's an offensive coordinator.

    That's what he is.

    I think that whether at Denver or elsewhere, Tebow will eventually become what he was his freshman year at Florida, a red zone specialist where his strength of having such a true nose for the goal line can be employed while his weakness as a passer matters less.

    Perhaps, but that is not what jumps out at me. Just idiotic comments by those Broncos fans.
