Really dumb PR move!!!! Tebow is a fan favorite, he has potential and character that inspires his teammates and fans. TO get rid of him for a has-ben soon to be fully retired COLT is a HUGE mistake. Ten years from now when the Broncos tickets are no longer sold out you can point to this moment when Elway and the Broncos sold out character and misread the fans for an a QB that will wear a Colts jersey, not a broncos, when is inducted to the hall of fame. Short term thinking, long term disaster.

At least Elway will not have to face his own moral short comings every day he comes to work and sees a man with character and morals that Elway never had. Wonder if Janet, John's ex, admires Tebow for his character more than she does John for his moral failures.

Really dumb PR move!!!!

And if manning wins nobody will care. Now if he gets knocked out in the first game of the year it will be a constant subject of second guessing.

In that same logic Green Bay trading Brett Farve was a PR mistake because he had a cult like following in that city. Until Aaron Rodgers showed he could put wins on the board just as well. Then nobody remembered him any more.

Darn right!

Any team that wants to go to the Superbowl with Tebow will have to take a big risk and make a huge commitment to build the team around him. Denver obviously didn't want to do that.

But it's worth it. Tebow has pluses that most people willingly ignore.

Well stated. It took Mr. Elway years and years to become the on-field winner which he was. It would have been nice to give Mr. Tebow such a chance.

Agree, a bad, self serving move by Elway... short-sightedness. By season’s end, Denver fans will be calling “Bring Back Tebow”.

Elway has just joined Michael Jordan as a former superstar turned failed General Manager.

Jesus Christ, give it a rest. Who appointed you the Judge of Morality for the AFC?

I agree that this is a dumb PR move. A lot of people were considering the Broncos to be America’s team instead of the Cowboys. And all of Tebow’s shortcommings were due to his inexperience, not his lack of talent.

OTOH - Don’t sell the Manning brothers short. They are both class acts, with high moral standards.
