Scoring wise probably about the same, but Tebow would of been much cheaper thats for sure. The good news is that Tebow would of been able to elude the pass rush and maybe help the run game because of his scrambling. I think Tebow would easily game manage this team without turning it over with the kind of defense we have. Either way the offense would be low scoring but unless Kubes tells Manning to play Tebow ball i think he will still turn the ball over with some boneheaded plays. Man, i am really buzzing right now, this beer is damn good. :)

Muhahahahahaha! Most idiotic poll question ever! Ding! Ding! Ding!! :laugh:

Tebowites have been waiting for 4 long years to say "I told you so!" But, meanwhile their Christian hero has washed out of the league. Permanently.

He's now officially a complete, total and perma-bust that not one team in the NFL wants on their roster. NOBODY!

But, of course "Teeeeebow!" Because, reasons. :coffee:

This just gets funnier and funnier! :laugh:

No, the good news is that Tebow is available because he's sitting on his couch because he totally sucks so bad that NOBODY wants him. Nobody! Not even teams who are struggling because their QBs are beyond horrible.

Like this hot mess:


Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford was an unhinged disaster on Sunday (http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000554947/article/caldwell-on-matthew-stafford-hes-still-our-starter), but his starting job is safe for now.

Coach Jim Caldwell met with reporters after Detroit's 42-17 loss to the Cardinals to announce that Stafford, benched midway through the third quarter, would be under center next Sunday against the Bears.

So, an NFL QB can be an "unhinged disaster," his team can be 0-5 with the coach facing the grim prospect of being fired at the end of the year, and yet not one NFL GM reaches for the phone and calls Tim Tebow!


Stafford was yanked after completing 20 of 32 passes for 188 yards with a touchdown and three killer interceptions. Backup Dan Orlovsky was far from a savior, throwing a touchdown and a pick of his own.

Stafford is horrible, their backup is Dan Orlovsky, who is even worse, but still no Tebow?

That ought to tell you something, but the idiotic Tebowites still just can't get it. Your hero is a loser. Nobody wants him. Nobody.

To hear many posters tell it, the offense would definitely be far better. To be fair, few of those many include our last QBs harshest critics. But all the stuff about the run AND pass blocking being garbage that forced us to run 2:00 Drills all game, EVERY game, and that being OK as long as our elite D kept us within one score so our QB could win it with a SINGLE walkoff scoring drive: All as true then as now; the only difference is more people CARE about it now. Some people are still willing to throw the QB alone under the bus for all our many problems though

Weirdest part? When we're on D, people rave that Ware and Miller are elite pass rushers, and Jackson, Wolfe and Sly are solid—but the INSTANT we get the ball they seem to forget pass rushers exist, and doom offense who can't block them: Nope, offense=QB, so bad offense=bad QB (and, to a lesser extent, awful RBs and WRs: Only "skill" positions matter; everyone without fantasy football stats is irrelevant.)

It's like watching football with an 8-year-old: "We're behind; our QB must suck: My custom Madden QB is NEVER behind." :rolleyes:

How is it an "overreaction" to say that a QB who has washed out of the league multiple times, who nobody wants, who not one team thinks is worthy of a roster spot is a washed up loser?

What more proof is necessary than the fact that even coaches and GMs who are going to lose their jobs this year, and who presumably would clutch at any available straw - still want nothing to do with Tebow.

Depends. Ive always stated that if Tebow had a all world defense he wouldnt need to pass much to win a championship. Now, we havent played GB or NE yet so its hard to say how this team will fair with them but had Tebow had this defense in 2011 its very possible we win more games. The biggest hindrance right now is turnovers and a lack of running. Having a mobile QB forces defenders to play another player who is a threat. Tebow would be that kind of guy so as long as he didnt get hurt. But offensively, Manning has done no better this year than Tebow would or as Chazoid pointed out what Brock would do. Any low level QB would throw 6 TD's and 7 Ints. Those are very pedestrian numbers for a all pro QB.

Ain't even talking about you. I was responding to the quote. Don't care what your opinion about Tebow is. There are plenty of fans out there who still want to be able to say that "the Broncos should never have cut Timmy!"

And I'm responding to that because that is a widely popular view - even now. And it just kills them that they can't make a sensible argument for that because Tebow has washed out of the league.

But, they can point to every flaw of Peyton Manning, and then shout "Teeebow!"

Tebow would be asked to throw a lot because every defense would put 10 defensive players in the box..forcing Denver to throw. Tebow wouldn't/couldn't win (on any kind of consistant basis) no matter what defense is backing him up. As soon as you faced an offense that could (and would) score, you'd be screwed.

Well, statistically, Tebow's offense was better than Mannings currently is. So either Tebow is good enough to be a starter, or Manning isn't good enough to be a backup either.

Pick.

To lighten the mood a bit, it could be worse. Here's a nugget from todays gameday thread from Chiefs planet:

Mannings completion rate is higher, but Tebows TD/Int ratio is MUCH better. Yards per attempt is almost identical.

Add in Tebows rushing stats and the offense looks better under Tebow in 2011 than it does so far under Manning in 2015. It it what it is. This thread probably wouldn't exist otherwise.

Please don't misunderstand though, I'm not trying to say that Tebow is the better QB or that Manning should be benched. Just find the situation comical.

Manning could play QB left handed better than Tebow, this is true.

cmc0605
10-12-2015, 10:36 PM
No, Tim Tebow could not attempt to carry this offense on his own due to everyone else's lack of productivity, including the need for a more than 2:1 pass/run ratio even though we played with a lead most of the time. No, they would not let Tebow throw on 3rd and 11 inside that two minute drill with the game on the line, just like we need to throw every play.

If you think teams are stacking the box against Peyton every play (not true) because he can't throw deep (not true) you'd probably see 10 man boxes with Tebow...

Though, maybe he could have ran in the end zone better than our RBs... you know when it was 1st and 4 on the goal line after Von's strip sack and Peyton's 12 yard completion to DT.

Nor could he throw for well over 200 (or 300) yards in each of the last three games.

The problem is the run game and red zone offense, not Peyton Manning. WATCH THE GAMES. We just need to cash in, we're moving the ball. We'll be fine.

You want to continue to try and compare Manning and Tebow, I'll laugh alllllll the way along the ride you want to bring. I have no problem with that.

Seriously, even as bad as Manning is playing..he's STILL tons tons tons better than Tebow was at his very best. But if you think its worth you bringing back me making a point that Tebow won due to luck and defense, that's your call. :D

Why would anybody want the #1 Rushing offense over the #32 ?

Madness.

Passing and running are not of equal importance. You're asking for a pitcher with a good changeup and no fastball.

The way the defense is playing, dont need no fastball.

Besides when did duck throws become fastballs?

Yes. He was one of the first FA they had in. He went to Buffalo because he thought he had a chance to start.

That's interesting. But I think the writer brings up a question that could be answered with a very simple.... Because Os won't be under contract after this season. Open competition is good. I didn't know this, and never read this before. Thanks for the info, elsid.

ESPIN reported the same thing. and the Broncos offered more than $7M he got from Buffalo. That's good money for back-up/first time starter

The report was a bit misguided though, he tried to make it sound like the club was not happy with Oz when in reality it looks like they were just looking for another player to possibly add to the roster. Nowhere does it say that Tyrod was going to be the starter which is probably why he went to Buffalo because his chances were a lot better there of actually having a starting job.

7 mil at a time when out cap space was less than plentiful. Kubes must have liked him in Baltimore, or really not fancied Oz.

Tyrod had already shown he was a competent QB in Baltimore before Kubes even got there. I guess im the only one who is not surprised he is a starter in Buffalo. He always played well when coming in for Flacco or when he had time to play in the games.

As bad as this team is running ball, tebow would be bad in epic proportions.

I can see it scramble back,scramble left, scramble right, spin move, scramble left. Sack loss of 30 yrds.

I would say it came down to having a very familiar feel for Tyrod because of their time in Baltimore more than anything else.

yeah.. he's a big boy. But so are the LBs and DL of the NFL...and they are faster than he is. Every QB in the game is going to have big throws and/or good runs. I mean, they are good enough athletes to make it to the NFL. These guys are awesome athletes, even if they are bad NFL players. So yeah, he'll break a tackle here and there.

Manning at 30 to 50% is still better than Tebow. Manning has great leadership skills that can't be discounted.

Its a shame they didnt come with a bigger discount(cough) maybe we could have got a decent offensive line !

About discounts, Manning should be making about 8 to 10 mill. This year.

If manning cared about bringing in more guys on offense he wouldn't be making 16 million. Your think a qbwhose made hundreds of millions would take veterans minimum to bring in as much talent on offense period. So in a way manning being selfish is getting what he asked for. This guy knew he was finished physically but yet he still took elite qb money. And elway was simple enough to let him.
