    I cannot stand the man.

    Hes your typical golden boy college QB who's failed, or is going to fail miserably in the NFL.

    Half of ESPN's NFL stories are about him.

    Please make it stop!

    i would agree, he is a little over rated. seems like the broncos think so too, with him being 2nd if not 3rd string QB this year.

    Yes... Have been since 2006. Im a FSU fan and the gator fans are relentless!! They put him up there with Jesus for 4 years and i got sick of it quick. They thought their team was soooooo good but as soon as Tebow left... average football team.

    A Teblow thread? Sure, don't mind if I do...

    The notion that people are "hating" on Teblow is getting old. I believe its been accurately said, by a well respected analyst, that if you took the name off the back of his jersey he probably wouldn't have been drafted...at all. Most likely a guy with his talents, or lack there of at his position, would have been picked up after the draft and given a chance. He certainly would not be discussed as a starter anytime soon.

    People like to point out that we should stop celebrating the "bad" athletes, and start celebrating guys like Teblow. Just because the guy is a good person outside of the sport, doesn't mean he gets a free pass on the field. The guy has terrible QB skills for the NFL level. Lets be honest.

    Why are QBs still getting drafted from Florida anyway? When was the last time one was a good NFL QB? Never?

    Edit: I should probably state, before people get their Teblow undies all in a bunch, that I have nothing against him as a person. He does a lot of good and seems like a good person. Good for him. I applaud that. I am just looking at him as an NFL player, in an unbiased light.

    Yeah and the other half is about Rex Ryan and the Jets!:rant: After Orton's comments this week he didn't make it any easier between himself and the Bronco fans that worship Tebow.

    I think it's pretty funny (and sad) that the biggest NFL story this week has been a QB battle between a TE and Kyle freaking Orton.

    Seriously. Kyle Orton.

    I guess a guy who text his wiener is more your style.
    :)

    Edit
    I agree just looking at NFL talent he is not there, yet

    Am I tired of hearing about him? YES

    Am I curious how he will develop in the NFL? YES

    Do I think he has potential to be a great leader? YES

    Do I think he has potential to be a great QB? Not sure yet.

    I think all the hype is crazy. He is pretty green and I think it is going to take a couple years to see if he can hone the skills necessary to be a great QB. I think last night showed that he is definitely NOT ready. I think the unfortunate thing is that he will need time in the pocket to become ready, but he won't get much of that until he improves a little. Kind of a catch 22.

    I guess only time will tell. But yes all the hype is stupid!

    Uh oh, you have Preseason Lionese. This is a serious disease that affects many Lions fans. You believe the preseason actually means something. The only cure is winning games. For this reason, many Lions fans have been suffering this for a long time, as many Teblow fans will.

    No, because as Hook pointed out, the guy in front of him is Kyle Freakin' Orton. There have been some terrible QBs that have started in the NFL. Its always on bad teams. Starting in the NFL doesn't mean you're good. There is an endless list of bad QBs that have started in the league.

    I would be shocked if he doesn't start before the year is over. They aren't making the playoffs, and eventually the fans will crying for him. They will start him.
