There’s nothing wrong with including fumbles. Not fumbling is part of protecting the ball. And for a QB that runs often than that’s an important stat.

Well now you’re in rather obvious territory. Yes when he turned the ball over less he was more likely to win. Part of Tebow’s problem is that most of his games, even the wins, were bad games. Any time a QB goes through a game with less than 10 completions that’s a bad game.

The stats are NOT in his favor being above average. His completion percentage and his QB rating are both SIGNIFICANTLY below average. The only thing in your favor is that the defense shaved 15 points a game off what they allowed, which gave his crappy stats a better than even chance of winning the game. He can’t complete passes, his stats are TERRIBLE, and only a cultist would think otherwise. If you don’t want to be labeled a cultist stop acting like one.

He was held in check by the coaching. Denver had a ‘do not lose’ attitude with an aging running back. However ...

After the three consecutive losses, Broncos vice president and former quarterback John Elway said Tebow was playing tentatively and needed to “pull the trigger.”[116][117] On January 8, Denver hosted the Pittsburgh Steelers during the first round of the NFL playoffs. Tebow threw for a career high 316 yards and two touchdowns, including an 80-yard TD to Demaryius Thomas on the first play of overtime, as the Broncos won 29–23.[117] Tebow completed 10 of 21 passes in the contest, setting an NFL record for yards per completion in a playoff game at 31.6.[

Pure name calling. That’s all you’ve got.
