That man is playing like a dude with a real big chip on his shoulder.

Last time I counted Jesus didn't have any rings....*     Brady is playing with a mission.   Belicheck doesn't mess around.  The Tebow ride was funny but seriously he's not an NFL QB or the answer.

Tebow is such a joke, running a college option offense in the NFL.  And the Broncos built their entire offense on Tebow's limitations.  They caught some teams off guard in the regular season, enough to get into the playoffs, but they won't be able to do that next season.  Denver leveraged their future on a piddling QB, and they'll be paying for it for a long time now.

The chip has a lot more to do with being tired of hearing about being 0-3 in his last 3 playoff appearances and 0-2 in his last 2 home playoff games than anything to do about Tebow, who he has already beaten.

Yeah, what a jerk:

Every week, Tebow picks out someone who is suffering, or who is dying, or who is injured, flies them and their families to the Broncos game, rents them a car, puts them up in a nice hotel, buys them dinner (usually at a Dave and Buster's), gets them and their families pregame passes, visits with them just before kickoff (!), gets them 30-yard line tickets down low, visits with them after the game (sometimes for an hour), has them walk him to his car, and sends them off with a basket of gifts.

Home or road, win or lose, hero or goat.

Remember last week, when the world was pulling its hair out in the hour after Tebow had stunned the Pittsburgh Steelers with an 80-yard OT touchdown pass to Demaryius Thomas in the playoffs? And Twitter was exploding with 9,420 tweets about Tebow per second? When an ESPN poll was naming him the most popular athlete in America?

Tebow was spending that hour talking to 16-year-old Bailey Knaub about her 73 surgeries so far and what TV shows she likes.

"Here he'd just played the game of his life," recalls Bailey's mother, Kathy, of Loveland, Colo., "and the first thing he does after his press conference is come find Bailey and ask, 'Did you get anything to eat?' He acted like what he'd just done wasn't anything, like it was all about Bailey."

More than that, Tebow kept corralling people into the room for Bailey to meet. Hey, Demaryius, come in here a minute. Hey, Mr. Elway. Hey, Coach Fox.

Even though sometimes-fatal Wegener's granulomatosis has left Bailey with only one lung, the attention took her breath away.

"It was the best day of my life," she emailed. "It was a bright star among very gloomy and difficult days. Tim Tebow gave me the greatest gift I could ever imagine. He gave me the strength for the future. I know now that I can face any obstacle placed in front of me. Tim taught me to never give up because at the end of the day, today might seem bleak but it can't rain forever and tomorrow is a new day, with new promises."

Pretty sure Fugly wasn't discounting Tebow the person, just Tebow the QB.  Noone has denied his off the field contributions which are 2nd to none.  Great guy.  It's this on the field circus that was a "feel good story" that everyone was rooting for and kinda realized it wasn't gonna happen at least not this year.   His last 5 games are who he is.   He and his team got lucky for one of those games which happened to be a playoff game against A very destroyed Steelers team.  This is the NFL, the option is something you try out every so often to change it up.  You can't live and die by it.  I hope Tebow makes it s couple years to make money and raise awareness for his causes because he is a legit humanitarian.   He always has said that playing football is 2nd to what he believes and there is nothing wrong with that.  He will have plenty of time doing God works in his future but his best stuff is not gonna be wearing a Broncos jersey.  Go Giants!

Tebow is a great person because of the thug mentality in this country people would rather cheer thugs then good pepole who have class.I think he is the best thing to happen to the NFL in a long time.

I'm not sure you can blame Tebow at all for the media's sensationalizing him.

As I've said on a few occasions, I dont consider myself religious but I'm not one of those people who complain when I see things like X-mas decorations at a public building either.  People are a little wound up about Tebow and his openly Christian beliefs and that is indeed part of the whole Tebow phenomenon.  But when he does things the way CAGiantFan outlined, it's really hard to hate the guy.  He could be a lot worse as a young man. 

He's got a long way to go as a pro QB.  He's still learning and its conceivable he will never grasp the pro game.  The sentiment around here in Denver is that Elway, as excited as he has been over the way the season has gone, is still looking for a 'real QB'.  You really can't blame anyone for how this game went down.  The oline doesnt know how to pass block because they dont pass but 10 times a game.  Tebow hasnt exactly been given a full complement of pro-style plays and that's probably a wise thing.  Tebow didnt design the offense so technically he's not the one responsible for the type of offense they have.  The coaching staff inherited Tebow from the previous Josh McDaniels regime.  So what do you do?  Do you put in Brady Quinn?  The rest of the players love Tebow and they support him.  Do you yank him to spite the rest of the team?  They went very far for a team that should have been in the AFC West basement along with Oakland.  He's been a real nice boost for Broncos fans and the community has rallied around him.

   Tebow upsets people because they see in him the person they should be, but that's cool.

I think Brady was more tired of hearing how they had not won a playoff game in 4 years.

I think he looks down at his hand and sees he still has one finger without a ring left. Then counts the number of QB's that have 4 rings on his other hand. Then he's thinking how nice it would sound, "Terry, Joe and Tom".
The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of will.

I believe Brady was hyped up for this game for two reasons. One is obviously to move on in the playoffs. But I think he was also looking in the rearview mirror a the newest golden boy on the block in Tebow. Brady was the golden boy when he became the starter and now after the years have passed he wanted to show this kid that he still has what it takes. He put on a clinic. He even punted. LOL. " I'll show that kid".  I'm sure Tebow learned alot by what he saw Brady do and how he did it.

I think the Bronco/Patriot game showed me that Tebow isn't an NFL caliber QB and that the Broncos will most likely switch him to another position because the kid can play football but just not QB in the NFL..
