Sir, I reject your assertion that Heisman Trophy winners will throw at an NFL level. Perhaps you are not considering the likes of Troy Smith, Danny Wuerffel, Eric Crouch, and Jason White (to name some). Tim Tebow joins this list. Further, you should note the chest injury he suffered against the Pats in the playoffs during a run. That playing style, even for a fast son of a bitch like Vick, will only work for so long. Tebow is not as fast as Vick, and his only chance of survival is to run less like McNabb and Rapistberger eventually did. Even my boy Rodgers worries me terribly.
Finally, the notion that “he found a way to win” is not something I’m willing to give him credit for. If I went back and looked at the games they won, it would jog my memory better as to the specifics, and I know I can credit him with one or two of those wins. But in general the defense won the game by keeping the score fairly close for three quarters while Tebow was awful. And I would say Marion Barber gets way more credit for one of those Tebow “wins” than any Bronco did.
But I will grant that it is possible I’m wrong. I don’t admit this to often even be in the realm of possibility, but I will admit it here. The best recent example in my memory is Eli Manning. He sucked the first couple seasons, and I remember thinking around week 7 of his third season, “man, they need to give up on this guy and realize he isn’t Peyton Manning.” Then he turned a corner and won a Super Bowl that season. He’s been solid ever since. Will this be Tebow’s legacy? I wager not.
