Dallas
Giants
Eagles with Vick
New England
Detroit
Green Bay
Pittsburgh
Houston before losing Schaub
These are the teams in the NFL that have consistent good offenses. I don't believe that the Tebow led Denver can handle any of them. Against them, the Broncos would not be able to keep up.
Compare apples to oranges much?
Dallas: Romo has been starting for the same team for the last 6 years, AND has stud WRs and TE. And he's never won squat.
Giants: Eli has been starting for the same team for the last 8 season AND has stud WRs and TE. He's won 1 Super Bowl.
Eagles: Vick/McNabb have had the same offense and coaching for over a decade, as well as great WRs. They have one Super Bowl appearance, no wins.
Patriots: the premier team in the league, Brady has been starting for the last 11 seasons with a few Super Bowls.
Detroit: The Lions have Calvin Johnson and not much else, have never won anything.
Green Bay: Rodgers is among the top 5 QBs of all time, stud WRs and TEs, and has been in the same system for 7 seasons.
Pittsburgh: Big Ben has been starting in the same system for 8 seasons, plays for a well run organization with always strong defenses, and have several Super Bowls to show for it.
Houston: Schaub's been in the league for 8 seasons, 5 in the same offense with an uber-stud WR, great RBs and a stable franchise. And nothing to show for it.
On the other hand, Tebow is:
- playing in his 2nd season, for his 2nd coach,
- playing with a squad who has never played in this offense,
- executing plays for an offensive coordinator who's never run this offense,
- playing without a stud WR (Brandon Lloyd) who got traded away for peanuts,
- playing without a decent TE,
- playing without the starting RB (Moreno),
and finally
- leading his team to a 5-1 record while the team's manager is out shopping for a future QB.
Elway should stop thinking about finding a starting QB and begin finding better WRs, TEs, and RBs to support this offense and his winning QB. Give Tebow, Fox, et.al. a few years to improve on the offensive skills and execution of the entire team and then start comparing him/them to the other well-established teams in the league.
