The only thing other than "he's magic" that I can think is coaches are using the terribad prevent and getting PWNED. Tebow's like the last dude you want to play prevent against. It's awful against every QB but especially him.
No reasoning in this article, but it does quantify the difference in performance by quarter.

Re: Tebow: Potentially the GOAT?

My uneducated guess is it has to do with not being able to overthink things in high-pressure, low-time situations.

All religion stuff aside, if you aren't enjoying the whole Tebow ride then it is likely a good barometer that you kind of suck at life

Judging by the turn this thread has taken I'm pretty sure I'm right

Is there some kind of shortcut button that would enable me to put "+1" to every post in the last 100 posts NOT made by shipit?

I'd be pretty wow'd too, pretty sure New Zealand's social care system is better than the US's.

Re: Tebow: Potentially the GOAT?

I'm fine with Skip arguing that Tebow is a good player, but when he starts arguing Tebow > Rodgers, then it just gets obnoxious

Re: Tebow: Potentially the GOAT?

Ya, Rodgers is the only QB with a better win % than Tebow, so he's a bit off base there.

1. Rodgers
2. Tebow
