Getting very tired of hearing that Tebow does not fit the mold/have the pedigree of an NFL quarterback. Sounds like the inside the beltway Republican establishment and the MSM saying a candidate is unelectable because he/she doesn’t fit the mold/have the pedigree of a President.

At first they said he couldn’t play in the NFL... now he does.
Then they said he couldn’t win in the NFL... now he does.
Now they are saying he can’t win a superbowl... after less than a full season as a starter.

For a lesson on a Super Bowl winning quarterback with minimal statistical contribution, check out Trent Dilfer’s stats in the 2000-01 Raven Super Bowl run...in a division playoff game, he was 5 for 16 for 117 yards; in the SB, he was 12 for 25 for 153 yards... proof that a quarterback does not have to win a game/title... just needs to be certain he doesn’t lose it.

And Tebow’s greatest asset is his ability to make those aound him believe in themselves and each other... to get the most out of their abilities, and succeed. It is a team game.

Sounds like a political figure in the past who didn’t fit the “mold” and couldn’t win... Ronald Reagan.

Like Reagan, against the naysayers in the press, public and football circles , Tebow is proving them wrong. He is a winner.
