    Tim Tebow is awesome. He is a Running Back in a QB position. He will screw anyone that bets against him. So shut up you cry babies and take it on the chin and stop betting against this phenom. He will be in the NFL kicking ass on all of you haters.

    He will succeed. He delivers on the last drive of the Games because he takes the Game on and uses his foot speed to get the yards and get the downs. He is like a Michael Vick except he goes head in to tacklers and damages their asses and prides.

    Defenses don't know what to do with him. "Is he throwing or running?" is their enquiry. They are left flat footed like a dumbass who has torn up a winning ticket and holding a losing one.

    Hail Tim Tebow. You are awesome!

    WOW long thread... I don't have time to read it all so I'm sorry if this has been stated already.

    The FACT is that Tebow has had comparable, or better stats than John Elway in his first 5-6 games, and Tebow has won more games than John Elway from this point of his career.

    We all know that Elway turned out to be a phenominal HOF QB.  the fact is that Elway himself was a horrible passer when starting out.  He had a big build, he was strong and could run hard like the wind mowing over linebackers.  Sound like somebody we know??

    Boom or bust, let the guy play and let's watch and see what happens.  At the very least its great entertainment.

    Elway only lacked experience when he was a rookie,was a great QB in HS at Granda Hills and in college at Stanford...

    Give Tebow credit,he's a winner,competitive like nobody else..

    But throwing a football theirs no comparison between them at all...None...

    Shrimp - like I said before, I will say it again... Look up the passing stats of Elway in his first year.  Then compare to Tebow.

    We all know that Tebow now is very unpolished.  You will find that Elway was actually a bit rougher when he started.

    It was all just a big coincidence?

    The facts speak for themselves.

     

    In their first 8 career starts:

    Team W-L:

    Elway = 3-5  Tebow = 5-3

     

    Passing Yards:

    Elway = 1,041  Tebow = 1,281

     

    TD-Int:

    Elway = 3-10  Tebow = 10-4

     

    Rushing Yards:

    Elway = 92  Tebow = 550

     

    Rushing TD:

    Elway = 1  Tebow = 5

     

    No one is saying Tebow is or will be better than Elway.  It’s just amusing how “the worst QB” in Denver history has done better in his first 8 starts than the best QB in Denver history.

    Sounds to me like they are trying to say that since elways first eight (or whatever) starts sucked then that means tebow will be fine. Its a ridiculous comparison imo

    They both are/were Denver QBs and one of them is publicly bashing the other one’s numbers despite that fact that he had much worst numbers during the same period.

    It’s a completely valid comparison.

    JetJeff12,
    You said...

    "How about he plays more games before people start calling him a winner."

    He is called a winner for legitimate reasons.

    He won championships in his junior and senior season in high school, which also included a state championship.

    He won player of the year in the state of Florida in his junior and senior year in High School.

    He then was Had 57 wins and 10 losses in college.
    Also, he won 2 NCAA championships in 3 years at the University of Florida. 

    Now, in his first 6 games in the NFL with virtually no top tier players at the skilled positions on Denver's offense, he has helped lead his team to a 5-1 record.

    Sounds like "he is a winner" is a pretty good label to me. 

    You then said...
    "He is 5 - 1 this season. Kyle Orton was 6 - 0 his first 6 games with Denver, Does that make him a winner ? Why did they cut Orton he is a Winner right?"

    *Those numbers are VERY misleading!!!

    Kyle Orton in his first 6 starts in the NFL:

    819 yards passing 5 TD's - 6INT's - 3 FUMBLES LOST & 16 yards RUSHING with 0 TD's. Record was 3-3.

    BIG difference when you look at his FIRST six starts compared to posting his stats in his 1st year in Denver (WHICH WAS AFTER HE HAD 5 YEAR'S OF EXPERIENCE IN THE LEAGUE ALREADY).

    You then said,
    John Skelton is 3 - 1 as a starter this season, the Cardinals are 1 - 6 in the games he did not start. Not one thread about how he is a winner and he makes the rest of the team better. He is not even going to start this week, because he sucks and he is not ready to be an NFL starting QB"


    John Skelton in his first 6 starts in the NFL:

    1154 yards passing 6TD's - 4 INT's - 1 FUMBLE LOST & 102 yards RUSHING with 0 TD's. Record was 4-2.

    You also are looking at Skelton's numbers in his 2ND YEAR in the league.

    Tim Tebow in his 1st 6 starts in the NFL:

    852 yards passing 8TD's - 1 INT -  - 1 FUMBLE LOST & 455 yards RUSHING with 3 TD's. Record is 5-1.

    I think Tebow is starting his career off well.
    Obviously has a long way to go, but due to his career in high school, winning the Heisman, 2 national championships and taking over for Orton.
    He is going to get more attention and scrutiny then Sketon.

    It is also Tebow's 2nd year in the league, they both started games at the end of last season. So if you include Skelton's stats & record from last year, you should do the same for Tebow

    You are right he was a winner in high school and college, just like

    Chris Leak

    Jamarcus Russell

    John Parker Wilson

    Cam Newton

    jetjeff12,

    You said "So if you include Skelton's stats & record from last year, you should do the same for Tebow"

    These numbers are just based on the games that they were the starters.

    Ok, so here they are...

    John Skelton 

    1,367 yards passing  with 6 TD's & 9 INT's.
    120    yards rushing   with 0 TD's & 1 Fumble LOST.
    Record is 5-3.

    Tim Tebow

    1,424 yards passing with 11 TD's & 4 INT's.
    617    yards rushing with  5  TD's & 1 Fumble LOST. 
    Record is 6-3.

    Then you said "You are right he was a winner in high school and college, just like Chris Leak, Jamarcus Russell, John Parker Wilson, Cam Newton."

    I was just pointing out why Tebow is labeled a winner, because he has done it at every level and now is doing it at the highest level.

    Chris Leak
    Leak was not selected during the 2007 NFL Draft.

    The Chicago Bears signed him immediately after the draft. He spent the summer of 2007 working with the team, and training under former Gator Rex Grossman.
    However, Leak only saw playtime during the final game of the preseason, where he completed eleven of sixteen passes for eighty-eight yards, an interception and touchdown.
    He was eventually cut from the Bears roster on September 16, 2007.
    For the 2008 season, Leak tried out with the Kansas City Chiefs, but didn't succeed.
    So, he never got the winner label as Tebow has cause he couldn't win at the NFL level.

    Jamarcus Russell

    7 wins and 18 losses in his career at the NFL
    So, he couldn't be labeled a winner either.

    John Parker Wilson

    He has been in the league since 2009, but has yet to be good enough to even get a start in the NFL.

    So, he must not be viewed by anyone as a winner or he would be on the field, leading his team to wins.

    Cam Newton

    He is 3-8 so far as a starter in the NFL, so the verdict is still out, on whether he will be labeled a winner or not.

    So, again as I already mentioned I was just pointing out why Tebow is labeled a winner, because he has done it at every level and now is doing it at the highest level.

    Tebow has been a winner, I was just pointing out that it is still too early to call him a winner at the NFL level. I just think he will have to play better for Denver to continue to win.

    Many people have said it does not matter what his stats are as long as they win, which is true. I was just pointing out other QB's that have won in the begining, but did not turn out to be winners long term.

    But ofcourse in the game where tebow took over at halftime (against the Chargers) They were completly healthy. Dumerville, Miller, Williams were all on defense, and Mcgahe was healthy on offense.

    The Broncos were losing 23-10 at halftime that game.

    So by that rationale, the Broncos defense didn't get healthy until the 2nd half of that game where their defense allowed 6 points in the 2nd half.

    How conveniant for the Tebow Haters

    People who are bringing up how bad guys like Peyton Manning and John Elway were in the begining, are making the point that it is too early to tell if someone is a winner after that many games.

    There are others also that started off losing like Terry Bradshaw, Joe Montana, Steve Young, Troy Aikman.
