Dude couldn't beat out a guy that completed like 3 passes in 4 quarters of play

To each their own.

Tebow was awful, awful, awful against the Bills in the game before we went to Denver last year. The Broncos had to win or hope Oakland lost.


Tebow just had his worst game ever, yet he still started an almost must win game for the Broncos.


Tells me all I need to know.

But he's mentally a doofus and his accuracy is shit.

Thats the really odd part about Quinn.

In college, he had ELITE accuracy.

In the pros, he fell flat on his face in this category.

How so?



Dude couldn't beat out a high school quarterback that could run the ball.


So it was all a business decision? Please.


Coaches jobs are to put the best players on the field. If by the hand of God, Tebow didn't miraculously get lucky and win games last year, they could have lost their job.

There is the whole putting people in the stands thing too...

I am of the belief that, rarely is the prospect or talent good enough to go into any environment and flourish.



Look at Brees. Wasn't good, situation change, great.

Brady, wasn't great it college, situational perfect storm, greatness.



I'm not trying to say these guys wouldn't have succeeded elsewhere, but it's not always "this player sucks"

Thats on the PR department, not the head coach.

BossChief 08-22-2012 07:13 PM

Tebow started in Denver because they spent a first round pick on him (that they traded up for) and they had a minimal investment in Quinn.

Did TebowMania/business play a part in it? sure

Were there lots of other factors also in play that meant more than "the fans wanted to play Tebow"? only a fool would think otherwise.

O.city 08-22-2012 07:15 PM

The current Broncos coaches and management didn't spend a first on Tebow.

Denver had problems putting butts in the seats?

I guess its possible, but I highly doubt it.

Thats a pretty loyal fanbase.

O.city 08-22-2012 07:15 PM

I will say that once they played Tebow and he miraculously beat the Phins, there was pretty much no turning back at that point.
