I am a Gator fan as as big of a Tebow fan as you can be (my dog's name is Tebow). I think he's the greatest college QB to play the game.
He caught lightning in a bottle that year with Denver, and in a perfect storm was able to lead one of the worst passing offenses in the NFL with two top flight all pro caliber wideouts. That was pure awesome for me, even if it was 50 minutes of ineptitude followed by a couple great plays to pull out a win IF the defense was playing dominantly.
In NY he couldn't beat out Mark Sanchez and Greg McElroy in practice.
In New England he was unable to beat out Ryan Mallett, and couldn't even complete 40% of his passes in New England with an offensive coach in Josh McDaniels who had everything to prove that he was right in picking Tebow up.
In Philly, he was unable to beat out Matt Barkley for a roster spot.
If you can't beat out backup QB's on NFL rosters, you don't last long in the NFL.
He was given 3 chances after Denver cut him loose.
Here's your mistake: You are using "facts." Here, this does you no good. At this place, what matters is partisan tribalism. You must adhere to loyalty to the clan, regardless of whether you are correct or not.
The partisan ideologues in this thread are convinced that everyone on earth is discriminating against Christians. Never mind that their sporting idol had the worst completion percentage of any qb in the NFL, had the throwing mechanics of a lego character, and couldn't make it with four different teams.
No, their messianic devotion is not the issue. It's their anti-empirical conspiratorial persecution complex that has convinced them that a lousy qb did not get a fair shake over five years of trying because everyone else hates Christians.
the bottom line here is that no team was sufficiently impressed with either of them to keep them a team, and that's as it should be
On field performance cant possibly be the reason....Cap is a victim!!!
