![]() And why Tebowoners cannot be taken seriously. The credit for our run afte Orton was benched is all Tebow and nothing to do with the coaches or the defense. I give Tebow a lot of credit for the great stretch but to give all the love to Tebow is assinine.

![]() And so is the world of an NFL QB. All the credit and all the blame. Hell Manning will be the reason Denver makes it back to the playoffs for a second straight year, but he will not be the fault in the majorities eyes no matter how poorly he plays in that situation.

![]() I guess that means Tebow is 1-2 without Fox.

![]() Exactly. The thought of Montana being the ONLY reason the niners won, while Rice and that defense had nothing to do with it is ridiculous. Eli is the only reason the giants won, while their Dline and recievers had nothing to do with it.
Who even thinks that way. |

![]() Elway's words alone are more homertastic than what most Camp Tebowners have ever said here.
I don't think many of us ever predicted that Tebow would come off the bench and instantly compete for championships. |

But, it is the life of the NFL QB. Is it right? Well no. But it is how it goes. Football is a team sport. One individual doesn't win anything on his own. |

How many times did we see the WRs criticized on this forum during the timeframe while Tebow was our starter? (almost every week someone was saying the WRs sucked) The fact is... when the OC only calls 8 pass plays a game, there's not much opportunity for any WR to excel. And a WR who doesn't "stand out" in any way is not going to remain on the team... or even in the NFL... for long. But don't just take my word for it... I distinctly recall seeing Jerry Rice on ESPN or the NFL network (around the time when the move was made from Orton to Tebow) stating unequivocally that he personally would find it "frustrating" to play on a team with Tim Tebow as his QB. I'm assuming you'll agree that Jerry Rice has some idea of what a WR mindset might be. Maybe Jerry's "just a hater" though. |

80 percent of the board b****ed about the Brock draft pick and one guy created a novelty Brock themed account. Other than that, point me to these mythical Brock huggers that you're talking about. |

![]() It's honestly one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard a coach or GM say.
Most actively try to dial down the expectations placed on a rookie. John makes it sound like the Broncos will barely notice whether its Brock or Peyton Manning on the field. Hopefully it won't matter for a few years. But it just fits into the same pattern that makes a guy think that John has insane expectations for a first-season QB. Hopefully he'll figure that out. Or else he'll make the Shanahan QB-carousel look downright homerly in comparison. |

![]() We'll have the same WRs this year... do you believe there will be a single game in which the game plan only calls for 8 passes? Manning can kill the opposing team through the air; Tebow's strength was running the ball. With Manning, our WRs' primary role will be catching the ball; with Tebow it was run-blocking. The game plan will be totally different because the strengths of the QB are different.
