I’d say that they’re the ones supporting MY position.

I'm sorry xzins, but you sound silly. You obviously have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. Do you watch the NFL or are you only commenting on this because Tebow is an outspoken Christian and you want to defend him?

It is very possible that Tebow will be out of the NFL next year. Clearly all 32 franchises, their scouts, GM's, coaches, etc, do NOT agree with your assessment. They do not want him. They are not supporting your position.

Tebow was drafted with the hopes he could be coached/taught the proper fundamentals. He couldn't. Without the proper fundamentals Tebow will never be a good NFL quarterback. It just won't happen. Denver figured this out, then the Jets discovered the same, now all the teams in the league understand this about Tim Tebow. He is just not a good NFL QB.

I actually think he’ll get one more shot, because somebody will be desperate enough to pick him up off waivers. Nobody will trade for him though. And that shot might not get past the pre-season. But I do think there’s enough teams with nothing but question marks at the QB position that when the Jets dump him to the waiver wire somebody will give him a shot.

I don’t know if you’re intentionally missing the point, or if you just can’t see it.

They scouted, drafted and used Tebow. When used he won games, inspired teammates, and went to the playoffs where he WON again.

He has SHOWN that he can be effective in the NFL.

All of the above means that every other comment is irrelevant until Tebow is given another chance. It also can be used as evidence that something ELSE is preventing his being used, for example, his religion.

From Bill Cosby and the OrlandoSentinel about Tim Tebow:

““I like the way that team plays football and all of these people who don’t understand it tell ‘em to c’mon and beat him. Because it’s football ‘boom, boom.’ And tell Tim [Tebow], I said don’t worry about what all of these people are saying, just show him old films of Joe Kapp, Minnesota Vikings. Football played.”

Maybe old Cosby has a point about comparing Joe Kapp and Tim Tebow’s unorthodox styles.
