Tebow won a wild card game, Manning earned a bye week didn’t have to play in a wild card game.

I don't understand the point you're trying to make. Manning had an extra week of rest and lost to a 10-6 team. Tebow won against a 12-4 team.

He beat a 12-4 teams that by the time OT hit had only one starter left of their front 7. And Manning lost to the eventual SB champs. But the point is when you tout Tebow’s 1 playoff win vs Manning’s you ignore the fact that Manning didn’t have to play in the round the Tebow won. He won enough games to get a bye, didn’t play in the wild card round. In the end both lost in the divisional round, basically the same level of achievement, except Manning wasn’t terrible in the regular season. Any QB that goes multiple starts completing less than 10 passes (like Tebow) stinks, period. you just need to accept reality, he got a shot, he stunk, he got another shot, he stunk some more, now nobody is picking him up on waivers. Looks like he’s done in the NFL, not because of any bigotry, which is an absurd claim (if the league is so bigoted explain Warner, and White, and Polamalu, and Lewis, and Sanders... Tebow is no where near the only openly Christian player), but because he is simply not an NFL caliber QB.
