Hang on folks........I think TEBOW is the real deal!

his passing accuracy, or lack of it, will catch up to him.

Not the real deal at all.

Tebow's throwing mechanics are ugly. His passes are wobbly and inaccurate. He doesn't see the field well or read coverages worth a darn. With all of this Tim has won 5 games in a row....somehow?? Tebow is a winner and a great player to have on any team in spite of his talent weakness. It's fun to watch Denver with Tebow running the show.

Tim Tebow == Riely Nelson. These two QB's throw the ball about the same (ugly) but their running and grit are what make them work.

There is first for everything, I agree with "HONOR CODE". Tebow is flat out a winner and winners find a way to win. Plus it messes with the status quo and changes the normal QB-NFL dynamic which is never bad

The reason he wins is because he doesn't turn the ball over and he has a solid defense to back him up. It's the same formula JETS have used and the 49ers are using to win. He doesn't lose the game for his team by throwing interceptions. Denver plays field position and are always in the game because of those factors.

Doman's giving passing lessons? hahaha.

Tebow proves that an entire team can win a game together. Its not all on the QB. Everyone has to do their job.

Tebow will improve or he wont. But for now it works.

Doman giving QB advice. hahaha.

When he was drafted in the first round, a lot of folks here in Denver were excited, but a lot were left scratching their heads in puzzlement. A couple of local talk show hosts were discussing the pick, with one of them pointing out his bad mechanics, bad footwork, awkward throwing motion, slow release, inexperience in actually reading a defense and going through the progressions, etc., etc., to which the other guy finally responded, "yeah, you make a strong argument against him. It seems like the ONLY thing this kid knows how to do right is win." Proving to be true.

Yeah, patriot, Riley's just like Tebow -- well, I mean OTHER than the fact that Tebow was one of the top high school prospects in the nations, the first sophomore to win a Heisman award (almost won 2), won 2 national championships, Davey O'Brien award, James E Sullivan Award, and is a starting QB in the NFL, while Riley has racked up a few wins over some average-to-lousy college football teams. But hey, OTHER than that....

I was expecting some kind of Riley Nelson comparison with Tebow.
I have enjoyed watching Tebow with his unorthodox winning play.

Page 2 of this article sounds like the writer is describing Riley Nelson. Riley is smaller but just as tough as Tim and shares the same set of intangible football attributes.

So who says there is a right way or wrong way to throw a football--Brad Dolman?
The proof of the pudding is in the eating as the old saying goes and the proof of Tebow's quarterbacking is in the winning. He will lose some games, like Rogers, the 2 Mannings, Brees, etc. He is young and he will learn and get better. His ability to run with the ball confuses defenses because they never know when he will take off. GOOD LUCK to Tim Tebow as he battles not only defenses but critics.
