his ankle?"

"Yeah Jim, it's really bothering him. Lets' look at the replay..."

"Oh you can see that it was bent backwards when Clady fell on him. That has to be a broken ankle if not a severe strain. Wait. He's going to the sidelines. What is Tebow doing?"

"That's called a 'laying on of hands' Jim."

"Oh look he's fine. Moreno is running back out onto the field. Apparently Tebow healed him by the grace of God."

"That's great, Jim. Let's go to commercial."

Of course, most of ChiefsPlanet wanted Jimmy Clausen at #5. THERE'S some football knowledge to take to the bank. ROFL

I feel bad for Garcia because I like him. I can imagine the traffic in Denver came to a screeching halt with multi car pileups when that pick was made.

And they obviously didn't "blow" the pick. They got exactly who they wanted.

So it all hinges on whether Tebow delivers or not. If he does, McDaniels will be a genius. If not - it's just the 25th pick. It's not like blowing #3 on a 5-technique or something.

Or even gambling on a Safety at #5.

I don't know man. I watched Cutler just slowly become this prissy little bitch that embarrassed me as a Bronco fan and I'm happy he's gone. I saw Marshall act like a spoiled child until it really started pissing me off, and I'm glad that he's gone. I heard Tony Scheffler give up on a season part of the way through and cry about his bff Cutler leaving until it sickened me. He's also gone and I'm happy about it. So many other athletes that I wanted the Broncos to draft this year. So many possibilities with the extra picks, but it's done. This Tebow kid is obviously a good kid. Seems to me to be a character guy. I've learned a lot about him as a person over the off season because he was hyped like crazy. Honestly...the kid impressed me as a human being. So we'll see what he's got as a Quarterback. I'm all right with it.

I will rip this ****ing cow town apart with my bare fingers.

Broncos' McDaniels can kiss job goodbye with Tebow pick

Denver Broncos coach Josh McDaniels should enjoy the next year or two in Denver. Really. Soak all of it in. Enjoy being a head coach. Enjoy making all the decisions.

Your days are numbered.

When you trade away Jay Cutler, Brandon Marshall and Tony Scheffler, the key components in the Broncos passing game in a year span, and then draft Tim Tebow in the first round of the draft, you are sending a loud message.

Talent doesn't matter.

Character does.

Why not pick the altar boys from the parish down the street? Aren't they good kids? Or maybe you can pick all the "A" students in this draft?

It doesn't matter if they can play. Just make sure they are good "yes men."

It just doesn't make any sense.

I understand a coach wanting to have good character guys, but this is going past that.

Tebow is a fifth-round talent.

First round?

Nobody in their right mind would ever say that Tebow plays the position better than Cutler. But Cutler was shipped out for being a bad boy.

Now they have Saint Timmy to fix things.

Here's a bet: He doesn't even beat out Brady Quinn.

He makes Quinn and Kyle "Pro Bowl" Orton, the other quarterback, look like John Elway.

Tebow is raw. He doesn't understand the passing game. He doesn't read defenses.

Oh, but he's a good kid.

At least he'll save the locker room.

Really? If you aren't playing, character doesn't matter. The NFL is a cruel business. His rah-rah crap doesn't matter. They won't listen. They won't stand for it.

Crying after losses?

Yeah, right.

Does he work hard? Yes. Does he want to be good? Yes.

But the skills aren't there. He isn't close to being as good as Jimmy Clausen. Too bad for Jimmy he doesn't have the character Tebow has, at least that's what they say.

The Broncos reached big time for Tebow. But look at the bright side: At least he won't be running the streets.

He also won't be starting anytime soon -- if ever.

And Josh McDaniels will lose his job in a year or two over this one and his other moves over the past year.

I think its funny that Denver probably could've gotten him a lot further down in the draft,... but I don't think they got a bad player.
