can we please just drop the completely false argument that team wins trump individual skills in this discussion?

if all that matters is wins then tebow at 4-1 is the favorite for rookie of the year over a 2-7 fraud like cam newton.

and they both trail randall cobb who is apparently leading green bay to a so far undefeated season.

you can argue that his skill set is different from that of the typical nfl quarterback. you can argue that he brings intangible assets like leadership or a "will to win".

but gloating over a win where your offense scored 10 points the entire game (with 3 of those coming on a 15 yard drive) is drooling on the floor idiotic when the discussion is qb skills.

No it's not. It shows that he doesn't get frustrated easily. Tard-o for the Chargers would've checked out at halftime with a performance similar to last night.

He's got intangibles. Plus he's an unbearable personality. Awful combo.

The disingenuous praying after every big play. A true Christian doesn't gloat their faith in competition...unless they're playing against Satan.

He needs to tone that s.hit down. I'd have a bromance with him if he was agnostic.

i'd love to be in on the discussions the coaching staff has with the receivers in denver. "tim tebow is the new qb. you guy's aren't really needed anymore."

norv turner is finally rubbing off on phillip rivers. san diego fan thought firing schottenheimer for not winning playoff games after 14-2 seasons was a great idea. dreams of super bowl titles danced in their heads.

good call.

i was blown away by the firing of marty-you fire your coach because you think you can do better. norv is better?! i've enjoyed watching the steady decline. the gm is a moron. he 'won' the battle vs marty, but he's certainly losing the war.
