All Aboard the Tebow Train!

How did the Denver Broncos win their first playoff game since 2005 last year. The answer: First round 2010 NFL draft pick Tim Tebow. Tebow has been dominating the NFL with his skill and prowess. Tim Tebow became Denver’s starting quarterback in the sixth game of the 2011 season. With a 1-4 record upon his promotion, Tebow led the Broncos all the way to an AFC West title and a playoff game, their first since 2005. During the offseason he was traded to the New York Jets. It is still unknown what his permanent position will be.

My question is: Why is there so much negativity towards Tebow? Is it the fact that he is the only sophomore to win a Heisman trophy? Is it because he openly shares his Evangelical Christian faith? This remains a mystery. After all, he has thrown many touchdown passes and he led his team to the playoffs. That is his job as QB. Is it not? In my opinion, Tim Tebow is one of the best players in the league. Why? Well, he is like a jack-of-all-trades. Early in the season we saw him placed at wide-receiver. When he became a starter, he dumped short passes to get first downs. Tebow has showed his great running ability by rushing as a QB. We have also seen him blocking for a running back after making a handoff! He can catch, throw, run and block. He is also one of the most humble players on the field. What more could you ask for?
