All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
An unnamed Lions defender shared this assessment of Tebow with Mike Silver of Yahoo! Sports: “Can you believe 15? Come on – that’s embarrassing. I mean, it’s a joke. We knew all week that if we brought any kind of defensive pressure, he couldn’t do anything. In the second half it got boring out there. We were like, ‘Come on – that’s your quarterback? Seriously?’”
As Biblical figures go, Broncos Tim Tebow most often is compared to the Main Character of the New Testament (whose middle initial may or may not be "H").

i totally dislike tebow's religious righteousness that he and his fans love about themselves.
That being said, i am curious on why he is being taken through the ringer so bad. Even our dear Losman and Edwards were given more than enough chances to prove themselves. Yet today most people are all saying tebow is finished in 3-5 weeks.
Just from a football standpoint, i don't think that's fair. it's the hardest position in sports at the highest level. most guys need to get some time to get acclimated as the starter.
Yes, his stats are crap. but he was taken in the first round. and with that comes a lot of second chances. i feel like the denver management is just parading him out there without much help just to prove they don't want him because they didn't draft him.
I don't think he'll be a star or anything, but i don't think he's getting a fair shake. alot of decent qbs have started slowly and were left for dead too early. if tebow is serious about getting better, he may find a more forgiving place next year elsewhere.

Quick question, have you seen him play yet this season? If you havent I encourage you to try and watch him this coming weekend or whenever you can. His stats while very poor don't begin to tell the story. Its everything guys like Kiper and myself said it would be.
Though I will say his throw to Decker in the endzone when Decker fails to get a 2nd foot in bounds was a thing of beauty.

i've not seen him play with the exception of a couple miami game highlights.
i'm not saying he isn't going to be a bad qb...i had that feeling. but i'm just curious on how he is so bad that he won't get a couple shots. most first rounders get a couple shots to stick. Kyle Boller is still on a team for god sakes. everyone kind of fails at different things. it's just funny that he is being banished in a matter of weeks and it sounds like he has no shot of getting back on a team.
There has to be a better team next year that would pick him up for a decent wildcat package. it'll come a lot cheaper than what denver paid him for. and for the most part, he wants to be playing the game. you can't take that away from him.

He'll get a second shot but you have to keep in mind guys like Boller don't ignite fan bases and split locker rooms like Tebow is doing. Note Im not saying Denver's locker room is split but read some of their post game comments, they want to win not just go out there and get their asses kicked.
Decisive QB's don't get 2nd chances all that often though look at recent history with Leaf and Russell.
COMING SOON...
