i cant wait to see how the patriots defense him a month from now in denver
on a side note and as it stands right now....i think he's awful at qb....but he has shown some good moments....his 4-1 record indicates that....but what nobody is talking about b/c the pro's are saying well he's winning and the con's are saying he's stinks
but what if....he continues to improve his throws and accuracy etc....he's already got every intangible imaginable....if this kid continues to go to work every day trying to get better and if he does even if its 1 baby step at a time....he could potentially turn out to be a good qb? we will see...
im not a tebow fan (i give him his due he finds ways to win) but he's gonna get to start the rest of the year....has the offseason to work on his game...then camps preseason etc....
ya never know....

THE MANY MYTHS OF TIM TEBOW
Wed, 12/14/2011 - 12:10pm***
Tim Tebow has managed to pull it off.
He's the most underrated and overrated quarterback on the planet today.
First: I was wrong about Tebow.
Correction: It looks like I'm going to be wrong about Tebow. I absolutely wrote him off as a guy with no chance to be even a semi-successful NFL quarterback. Well, there's a long way to go, obviously, but a 7-1 record and 11-2 TD/INT ratio as a starter at least shows that something is there. Sure, he could be a 10-year starter, but I guess he could be running the option for the Montreal Alouettes in 2016. Who knows? But he's already done enough to give the mockers -- and I was sure one of 'em -- serious pause.
I'm fine with waving that flag, I really am. But this is where it gets tricky, biases start to creep in and I begin to wonder if ESPN is just playing a joke on all of us: There is a growing belief out there that Tebow somehow has the ability to will teammates to victory, that there are intangibles that he owns that others do not -- intangibles that only manifest when it matters most, of course, there must be some jar he stores them for the first 40 minutes or so -- and, most importantly, that He Just Knows How To Win.
And that's how we complete the journey to overrated.
Why is there this massive desire to make Tebow more than he is? He's a unique player and fascinating story in the league, can't that be enough? Does anyone really think that Marion Barber III ran out of bounds last week because Tim Tebow was the opposing quarterback? When Matt Prater lined up to attempt that 59-yard field goal, do you believe the fact that Tebow was his teammate led to that kick being successful?*
Tebow has played significantly better in the fourth quarter, every statistic will tell you that. Why? Could it be that the Broncos become less conservative offensively? Maybe. Could it be that eight games is a really small sample size to make any kind of real declaration? I think so. But, again, there are people who make a living talking about football (and once made millions of dollars coaching and playing it) who are trying to sell us on the idea that some sort of magical element enters the World of Tebow for the last 15 minutes of a game, or that he just knows how to perform in the clutch. All those struggles the first three quarters mean nothing, we're told, because Tebow can block everything out when pressure is highest.*
NFL players and coaches believe this stuff for the same reason that many members of the media believe it: Because they want to. It's hero worship and jock-sniffing at its worst (remember, at various times over the last 20 years we've been told to love Brett Favre, Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa, USC football and Lance Armstrong, among others. I'm not saying it's going to end badly for Tebow -- might be he's the real deal -- but I do wonder if we'll ever go in with our eyes open.)*We can't look at Tebow's 48.5 completion percentage, his hideous play through the first three quarters, a hugely improved Broncos defense (they have allowed 13 points or less in four of last five games) and wonder, just wonder, if the quarterback position is still a weakness for this team. Nope, instead we get 5,288,888 cover versions of the ol' classic, "He's a Winner."
Am I to believe that if the Bears had scored 30 points, instead of 10, Tebow would've figured out a way to score 33? We all watched that Jets game, right? Tebow threw for 104 yards, completed 9-of-20 passes. Did the Broncos win that game (a 17-13 final) because Tebow put together a TD drive in the final minutes, or did the defense bail out a very shaky quarterback for 55 minutes?*
Maybe I'm simply a non-believer. That's the other Tebow angle that seems to have broken out: There is some kind of inexplicable outside force working for the Broncos, an intervention of some kind that's helping to convert 3rd-and-8's and making opposing running backs fumble in overtime.*
And this is where it gets -- if not offensive -- close to disingenuous. Look, a million athletes have tried to shove religion in our faces over the years. But Tebow strikes me as the first to bring it to us in an almost 3-D fashion, three inches away and completely unavoidable. Personally, it rubs me the wrong way. I have zero interest in a football player talking about his relationship with God, just as I have zero interest in a politician talking about his relationship with God or the guy in line at Dunkin' Donuts talking about his relationship with God. To me, it's private, and just because Tim Tebow has a large platform doesn't mean he needs to use it. Be a quarterback and let us figure out our own religious path.*
But the media has somehow tied in Tebow's*Christianity*with his winning, which strikes me as borderline lunacy. I don't know, but I'm sure there are plenty of deeply religious quarterbacks who have gone 4-12. I don't think God cares about NFL scores, the Golden Globes, the American Music Awards, the Byron Nelson Open or the season finale of "Khloe & Lamar." If God really cared about TV programming, Skip Bayless wouldn't be on ESPN.
Tim Tebow is in his infancy as an NFL quarterback, and it's unfair to pass any real judgment.*
He's not the best quarterback in the world and he's not the worst, that much we've established.
All the rest, for now, is just speculation. And I'm pretty sure there will be plenty of that.

[h=1]Tim Tebow Rumored to Play for Chicago Bears; What Is His Future With NFL?[/h]By Mark Rollins (news@gospelherald.com)Sep 23, 2015 01:48 PM EDT

<!--div class="banner-300"> </div-->
<!-- YOUR PREMIUM CONTENT HERE -->Tim Tebow is one of those football players that created quite a stir a few years ago not only on the field, but for his displays of faith. Most of remember the brief Internet fad of "Tebowing", where someone gets down on his or her knees, leaning their elbow on their knee, while leaning their head on their fist. Like most Internet fads, it quickly ended, but Tebow is now a free agent, with many wondering what team he will be playing for.
<center><!-- specific media -->
</center>According to Showtime Sports, the Chicago Bears lost their starting quarterback, Jay Cutler. He could be gone for a very long time depending on how severe his injuries are. Right now, Tim Tebow might be the best option for the Bears quarterback until Jay Cutler is able to return.
Speaking of quarterback changes, the Eagles coach Chip Kelly is making a change, but this doesn't involve Tim Tebow, according to NBC Sports Pro Football Talk. The Eagles have swapped out third quarterbacks, releasing Stephen Morris and signing Thad Lewis. Lewis was part of final cuts by the Browns this preseason, but he has also had experience with the Rams, Texans, and Bills.
Tim Tebow's history is quite an interesting one. His rise to fame began in 2011, when he began to be a starter for the Denver Broncos. He is seen as instrumental for helping the Broncos win their first AFC West title and first playoff game since 2005 against the Pittsburgh Steelers in overtime. Tebow was then traded to the New York Jets as the Broncos acquired Peyton Manning, a free agent at the time. Tim didn't get to play for the Jets, and was then released after drafting Geno Smith. In 2013, Tim signed a two-year, non-guaranteed contract with the New England patriots, but was cut from the team shortly thereafter. This year, he signed a one-year contract with the Phildadelphia Eagles, but then was released to be a free agent.
The Inquisitr states that rumors indicate that the former Heisman Trophy winner "may be done for good this time after being cut by the Philadelphia Eagles". He was a surprise pickup for coach Chip Kelly, and there were expectations that Tebow would be a "camp arm" who could take pressure off the injured Sam Bradford during training camp and the preseason, but Tebow "appeared to slowly climb up the depth chart". It looked like Tebow had a good position with the Eagles, but in the end was cut.
So what is next for Tim Tebow? The player has not come out and said whether or not he will try again in the NFL, but unless that Chicago Bears deal opens up, it could be the end for him as far as football playing is concerned. He has made his return to the SEC network working as analyst, and he'll have a great career there.
