All the college accolades in the world dont mean squat once you get your first paycheck. Just as true for football players as everybody else in the world. Once youre a pro its your professional accomplishments that matter. And Tebows professional accomplish basically add up to completing a few passes while his defense kept it close, except in the games when the defense couldnt keep it close. 4 training camps, 3 teams, 4 coaches, always 3rd on the depth chart. Tebow has a winning NFL record and a playoff win. In the games where he played well, which was the majority, he did an exceptional job of ball control and scoring efficiency.

The way I see it, Jacksonville has absolutely nothing to lose by giving Tebow a shot. They might even get 30,000 to go their games if they bring Tebow in.

He has a less than 50% completion rate. His TEAM that includes 52 other men, many of which do important things like keep the other team from getting points, has a winning record. Sorry but there really aren’t many games he did well, there’s a 5 game streak where he didn’t manage to complete more than 9 passes but still won, which is certainly NOT him doing an exceptional job of anything.

Tebow has a winning NFL record and a playoff win. In the games where he played well, which was the majority, he did an exceptional job of ball control and scoring efficiency. Tebow's stats for 2011 were 126 completions in 271 attempts for a 46.5 completion percentage. He threw for 12 touchdowns, had 6 interceptions, ran for 660 yards and fumbled 13 times. He also had 6 delay of game penalties. Those are not exceptional stats by any measure.
