Look at how many times that Lynn Swan and John Stallworth made the Great Terry Bradshaw look even greater. And France Tarkenton and Rodger Staubach, Randall Cunningham won games on toughness and running. John Elway lost 3 Super Bowls and they all were blow outs. He won 2 Super Bowls cause he had a running game with TD. and he himself used his legs to beat my Packers!

I caught chills when Tim Tebow won that playoff game against the Steelers. He threw for 3:16 yards and turn doubters into believers that day. It was truly inspirational. They should make a movie about that particular game. The odds were against him many bully him for kneeling to god , made fun of him for being a virgin and the way he spoke , it was awful. it would be a great script.

How the hell can you be a Giants, Eagles, & Steelers fan? Once you're a fan of a team, it's like a marriage.

Stephen A is from New York,so I understand that,he spend most of his career in Philly,so I understand that,even then he always picks the Giants over the Eagles,he's always said he always loved the 70's Steelers....with all that said,he's mostly a Giants fan....

[@Galilee1964]

I have to agree. ESPECIALLY with certain teams. Our Company CEO said in a meeting recently that she was a SF Giants fan. Then she went on to say that she used to live in LA and was a Dodgers fan. I was like, "NO! That's not allowed!" Jackie Robinson retired from baseball rather than go to the Giants from the Dodgers. If you want to be a Steelers fan and a Packers fan, be my guest. But you sure as hell can't be a Giants fan and an Eagles fan.

[@BrandonWS324]

Who gives a shit was team a person roots for. That's on them, it's seriously dumb

[@wallacevelie7197]

The truth is some of us really aren't fans. If the broncos make it to the playoffs I will watch a game, but if they don't I really am not interested. Also, I enjoy watching teams that come together against all odds, and over perform their abilities. I think of the Angles when they won the World series. So, I am really not a fan at all, but might say I am.

[@protoman1365]

+Galilee1964 I understand the issue with not liking hated rival teams, but as a Packers fan I am a fan of Adrian Peterson, Calvin Johnson, and Devin Hester even when he was a Bear. I am far from a fan of the Vikings, Bears, or Lions (though the Lions being as cursed as they are I wouldn't mind if they win, better them than some other teams like the Cowboys), but I respect good players on my rivals. It's like how I know many Giants fans who also give respect to Clayton Kershaw. But they hate the Dodgers. And honestly, sports aren't this serious. He's been a steelers fan as a kid. He supports the cities of Philadelphia and New York for helping him in his career. If a bunch of Chicago Bears fan gave me my first job, I'd hate them less. If it was a team that I don't have an opinion of, I might start to like them a bit. At least he isn't a horrible fanboy of his three teams in his analysis. Even if his analysis may not be that great.

[@mjb42280]

If 316 in that Game goes down as Tebow's brightest shining moment, it would be pure poetry that He could be the first to accept and be happy with.

[@51wobetmit]

That depends on the teammates. Do his teammates see it as disrespectful or a motivating force? Since we're not on the team, what we may think looks disrespectful may be perceived differently by the team/individuals involved. Besides this, is there really proof that Tebow is a better leader? Just because you think Brady disrespects his teammates doesn't automatically make Tebow a better leader.

[@SIRHENNY1]

Yes you make a good point I've been watching Tebow since his Gator days but lets be honest Tebow is the type of QB who wanna throw those 50 yard pass plays when he barley has the accuracy to hit a 5 yard pass all he got to do is work on that short yard passing then he could do all that but the teams in the NFL are not gona waste their time on tryna teach him how to throw cause it's just cheaper and easier to just go and get a another QB

[@Danny-cg8dj]

Brady wasn’t an NFL QB either! The experts are experts in their own mind! I agree with Gruden, Tebow is worth a spot on the team for intangibles and winning attitude! Tebow got a bum deal from the experts!

[@bballbrc]

I have family members who played in the NFL. Look, everybody who makes it to the NFL is talented, there are some who make it, some dont. But they ALL at one time or another display their rare skills. Tebow can play in the NFL. He may make it, he may not. If he doesnt, he wont be the first nor the last. And that goes for everybody.

[@impervius8690]

Eli didnt go to the playoffs till like his 3rd year, tebow did his 1st year as a starter, with a mediocre team. The reason they could is cause they believed, and even though tebow may have had some bad passes, and his receivers fucked up balls that could have prevented a 3 & out or even home run throws, they made great catches during crunch time. They accomplished alot, as a team, and individuals. If tebow improves, he'll be a hell of a qb.

Actually, if you go back to 2010, his first year with the Broncos, he went 1-2 (the games he started.) This past year, he went 8-5 (including playoffs, 7-4 in the regular season). Therefore his record is either 9-7 or 8-6 however you look at it. He's a winner!

Thomas got himself so fuckin open it was ridiculous. Looked like he was playing backyard 🏈 and was breaking his route to get open. I could made 80 percent of those throws he was so open and Jesus the YAC on that final play was all Thomas. Taking nothing away from Tebow. He made the throws but those same throws were all relatively easy to make

Personally, I don't know why people hate Tebow. He's a man of faith, loves God, is a hard worker and has a passion for the game that you can't really compare to no one. Sure he's not that good of a passer now but why can't he be in the future? Dude is only 24, he's got a lot of time.

Why skipp have the face of the devill in this vid🤣🤣

[@rocpet3]

um even with the injuries that defense was still one of the best in the nfl but they took a big gamble and lost thats what cost them the game. up till that point tebow really had never done much passing and it was assumed that he could not throw which was an extremly dangerous assumption for them to make. james harrison, troy polamalu, LaMarr Woodley Brett Keisel were all healthy, so most of their stars on defense were playing. but like I said they made a gamble and lost it.

[@tonyp7621]

[@drtroyturner7464]

After trading Matt Barkley to Cardinals earlier this week, they freed up a player spot by releasing Tebow and going with just a Mark Sanchez backup QB.

[@impervius8690]

Again, the defense had their highlights, the way tebow and the offense did. However, to say they were the reason, nope. They got trashed often too. As I said, the reason they succeeded, is they ALL stepped up. The defense made plays, and tebow and his offense made plays.
