I think anyone would be a fool to argue that Tebow is a good passer but I think it's also foolish to think that a quarterback's job is only to pass. You've got to lead and you've got to take care of the ball and you've got to keep the defense off balance. Tebow excels in doing all of those things. You can call it luck but 5-1 is 5-1. As they say, sometimes it's better to be lucky than good.

Tebow has not turned the ball over at all in their 5 wins with him. that is not luck, that is good misses. He is not a good passer, but I live in Denver TV market so all their games are on and I've seen a good chunk of all of his games. When he misses, and sometimes it's bad it is always in the right spot to miss. I'll give him that. He's played very well for the most part and the tying drive in regulation yesterday he threw some very nice balls on that drive. He's a really good football player. The is he a good NFL quarterback question about him will be unanswered for awhile, but no one can even argue that he isn't a superb football player.
