It's funny how serious some people get over people clearly trolling.

Excuses, excuses. Denver was 1-4 when Tebow took over. They were in the Andrew Luck race. But it didn't stop him from turning the team around, and putting them in the playoff race.

You serious? Tim Tebow is far and away the better passer.

If Tebow had Megatron he could do what Stafford is doing and Lob the ball up in the air and have Megatron come down with it. He could easily have 50 TD passes but no he has Eric Decker. Tebow is only a human after all, he can only do so much.

Tebow has used up all his luck already. The clock has struck midnight and, like Suggs said, he simply can't rely on his kicker making 59 yd FGs to win games. That's not a recipe for long-term success.
Observations and notes from the coaches tape.
http://nflfilms.nfl.com/2012/01/04/c...n-how-to-pass/
Quote:
* Tebow running on 3rd down is a significant part of the Broncos offense, It’s one of the only ways they can sustain offense.
* Tebow needs to learn what open is in the NFL, Right now he is not pulling the trigger on primary read throws that are there.
* Broncos run the most elementary and remedial pass game in the NFL re: route combinations and QB reads.
* Broncos got almost exclusive man coverage on the outside and they did not attempt to take advantage of it with Tebow throwing the ball.
* Tebow needs major technique and lower body work throwing the ball; Bad tendency to lift his back leg off the ground before he delivers the ball, That dramatically slows down his arm speed and limits velocity.
* Chiefs approach was to keep Tebow in the pocket and make him throw the ball, They featured a controlled 4 man rush and very little blitzing.
* Tebow at this point is not an anticipation passer, Waits too long to deliver the ball when receivers break open.
* Chiefs did an outstanding job with their outside contain defender preventing Tebow from getting outside an a runner, Tebow was a non-factor as a runner.

Cosell on Stafford:
http://nflfilms.nfl.com/2012/01/02/c...ing/#more-6000
Stafford has thrown more passes than any quarterback in the league. No quarterback has thrown more passes on third down. That tells you how Jim Schwartz and the offensive staff feel about Stafford. He’s the focal point by choice, the player around whom the success of the Lions revolves.
Stafford is an elite arm talent, capable of making any throw at any time. He has outstanding arm strength, plus the willingness to make tight passes into small windows. He can make those tough third down throws in critical situations against blitz and complex coverage schemes.
The concern with Stafford has been his accuracy, and at times questionable decision-making. He can be erratic and scattershot, and throughout the season, that has led to missed opportunities and turnovers. Certainly, Stafford’s inconsistency has been responsible for some poor offensive performances.
When Stafford is at his best, as he was in the fourth quarter against the Raiders three weeks ago and in the playoff clinching win against San Diego, you see a true lead quarterback who is his team’s centerpiece. As 11 year veteran center Dominic Raiola said after the Chargers win, “You need a great quarterback to win in this league and we got one. He’s the real deal”.

+1. Decker and Thomas are pretty good young players, but they're no Calvin Johnson. I really think Stafford's accuracy would be exposed if he didn't have a freak to throw to. In fact, looking at the numbers, he completed only 45% of his passes to people who aren't nicknamed after Transformers.

Stafford is passing the ball because his coaches know that defense isn't great. They're going to need to outscore people, because they aren't gonna be able to win a low-scoring game with that D. The Broncos defense has been playing pretty well, so John Fox knows he can play a more conservative style. Schwarz doesn't have that luxury, so Stafford has to throw more, while Tebow doesn't have to. Tebow could throw every play if he wanted to, but he's willing to sacrifice his numbers in order to win. And the proof is in the pudding, the difference between their winning percentages this year, when extrapolated to a 16 game season results in a difference of almost a 5th of a game. That may not sound like much, but a 5th of a game difference would have swung the AFC West completely.

Tebow 1-0 Stafford 0-1.
Tebow 3 TD 0 TO Stafford 4 TD 2 TO
Steelers #1 Pass defense #1 overall defense.
Sains #30 pass defense #30 overall.
Stafford has Calvin Johnson, Tebow's #1 receiver was out for the game in the 1st Q....
Tebow throws for more yards than anybody this season against the Steelers...
Those are all facts.

I was going to bump this thread
Tebow>>>>Stafford and Jay Cutler
Stafford and Jay have won a combined 0 championships in college and the pros. Tebow has 2 championships.
Tebow has won a hesiman and the other 2 have won nothing
Stafford and Cutler have won 1 playoff game combined against the 7-9 seahawks. Tebow beat the 12-4 steelers.
Tebow>>>Stafford

i had a moment to reflect on today's game, after witnessing stafford fall flat and seeing tebow triumph it also occurred to me that there is another element to this debate:
demaryius thomas vs. calvin johnson; both georgia tech wide receiver products, both first round picks. i always thought calvin was the better yellowjacket, but i guess part of that was having the great reggie ball throw him passes in college. i feel like some of tebow's magic is rubbing off on thomas and he is now what i would consider to be an elite wide receiver. all he does is catch game winnerz.

Those are all facts, and they are in the record books now.
But Stafford still throws a prettier ball, and doesn't have as long a windup as Tebow or Matty Ice.
Isn't that more important than playoff wins?

I guess if you're a draft evaluator. But if you're a draft evaluator, Brady Quinn looked a lot better than Tim Tebow.
Just like he did tonight, when Tebow was out dirtying himself and working up a sweat, Quinn was looking calm and handsome on that bench.

this is the greatest thread ever.
the mark of the Beast and he has risen. i thought Tebow was the Son of God and turns out he maybe the Antichrist. it makes so much sense now. how could i have been so nearsighted?
Quote:
|
The term or title antichrist, in Christian theology, refers to a leader who fulfills Biblical prophecies concerning an adversary of Christ, while resembling him in a deceptive manner. The antichrist will seemingly provide for the needs of the people but deny them ultimate salvation.
|
for this reason, Tebow is far greater than anyone could ever imagine.
