What I don’t get is this:
Setting aside the religion thing and the rabid FanBoys/Girls–and maybe I’m crazy here–but as a rookie QB in the NFL, what exactly was the issue with his performance?
I’m not saying he’s Grade A Prime starting material NOW. Yes, yes, we get that he’s not Brady / Farve / Eli / Paton, etc in their prime.
But come on! Apples to apples how many rookies/backups were BETTER than Tevo in that season?
I don’t know, maybe it’s all figured out and using a secret talenty oracle that can forsee that that little playoff run in Denver was a fluke and he’s really on a road to Nowheresville as a vet QB.
I just don’t get it, though. If I were running a team–and we’re not naming names here–that had a will/he/won’t/he situation with a QB who was a rookie last year, I’d be all over Tebow. I don’t see where you can go wrong.
But that’s just me.
