I think there's going to be a lot of surprised people after this game. And there will be some crow to be eaten.
Negative.
Wild guess here.... you're not watching the game?
He looks fairly terrible if you want to know the truth. Nice TD run, but we knew he could run. Eventually, a QB will need to, you know....
throw the ball. His TD pass was 100% luck. Never should have been thrown, and it should have been picked off, and it was a miracle catch. Other than all that, he looks fantastic.
In all unbridled honesty here, I will never, ever take anything you say seriously again. If you are so determined to convince yourself that you were right about something that you are willing to call this good performance today "terrible", then how can anyone trust anything you ever say on here?Tebow is averaging 10 yards per attempt today with a TD and no picks. His QB rating in the game right now is 107. And all this is not even taking into account the dropped 35 yard TD that he put on the money, or the fact that he's typically only being allowed to pass in obvious passing situations where the defense knows it's coming.
Even further, just from watching him, he's making the throws that people that never watching him play like yourself said he would never be able to make. People said he couldn't make the NFL throws, but that 25 yard deep out that he threw on a laser hitting Brandon Lloyd right in the chest right as he came out of his break is pretty much the epitome of a bigtime NFL throw that people said he couldn't do. And then running, people said he'd be too slow compared to NFL players, but he blew by several on that 46 yard TD run. They said that NFL linebackers would destroy him and he wouldn't be able to muscle them around, but he's carried guys forward every time he's run it.
Trying to spin this game as terrible when the absolute *ONLY* reason the Broncos even had a shot in this game was Tebow is absurd. The running backs have 26 carries for 30 freaking yards. The defense has given up 30+ points despite not being put in bad situations by turnovers. And of course, the offensive playcalling has been so unimaginative and predictable that you or I could have called plays on defense that should have shut this team out.
There is little difference between your posts today and LHucks saying "conference of champions" in trying to argue that his preseason predictions were right on the money.
