I live in Missouri and followed the Rams when Kurt Warner was their QB. There was nobody more devout in his Christian faith and more willing to thank God and credit Him for his successes than Warner was. He and his wife were known throughout the state for their devotion to God and to their family. Warner was just as public in his faith as Tebow is in his. The difference is that Warner was a quarterback, and a very good quarterback at that. He could play the position as few others could. He was a winner both on and off the field. Tebow is not. Tebow is a good man and a good Christian who is badly miscast in the role of an NFL quarterback. That is why Tebow is out of the NFL and why Warner had a long and possibly Hall-Of-Fame career. It has nothing to do with faith and everything to do with talent and skill.
I agree about Warner being a better qb but I think that anti christian bigotry has become much more accepted since then.
