college numbers do not equal nfl success

For the love of God orton take your horribly mediocre talents to south beach and let tebow take over the nfl.
—————————————–
I’m trying not to laugh, because if you happen to be serious – why that is just, just sad. You leave me wondering is Tebow is switching to FB or TE or if there’s an open glue container near you.

Hes going up against bonafide NFL QB and hes blowing it.

Do you think that anyone at training camp for the broncos gives a damn what Tebow did in college ? How far do you think that any player at that camp will get trying to use what they did in college as a reason they should be a starter in the NFL ?

If you didnt know better you wouldnt even know that we played a season last year because the same problems Tebow had before the draft are the same ones he has right now Ive never heard of anyone practicing something 18 consecutive months and then not being any better at than when they started .

Tin is probably two years away from challenging any QB not named Smith,Henne,Anderson.

You have no one to blame but mcdaniels because he shouldnt have been taken in the first rd to begin with and now Tebowners have taken over Mile high and basically talked him up all season that he was ready to play QB in the NFL buts its painfully obvious that hes not yet .

This doesnt mean he will never be a QB but people saying that Fox and Elway should flat out make a fool of themselves by playing someone they know is not ready is crazy .

Tebow sits until after the presidential election and then we will see how far he go with 3 years of practice because obviously 1 1/2 aint enough .

What are you going to find out about a guy who can’t drop back and read a defense? You expect him to learn some of the basic fundamentals of playing QB and perform well enough to show you his potential. Sorry but that is impossible. If you play Tebow now you will learn nothing about his potential because he isn’t even good enough to show you that. He needs to learn the QB position. He didn’t play this position in college. He played a whole different type of QB. Can he learn and become good through hard work? Sure but you better give him time because right now he will just get embarrassed.

You can’t? See Rogers, Aaron. See Rivers, Phillip. See Schaub, Matt.

You never know until you try.

You can’t expect a 2nd year pro to look better in the first week of training camp then a 7 year vet.
Oh and BTW he’s played more than the 2 years in Denver. Not sure if you know he played in Chicago too.

I just don’t get why people like YOU aren’t willing to give him that chance. Mr. Rivers, Rodgers, and Shaub all sat the bench behind their veteran players as well, but at some point they were given the opportunity to play and succeed.

Rivers sat behind Brees. It’s safe to say they are both elite, so how could that not be the same situation we have in Denver. I’m not saying Orton is horrible, but I’m not about to say Tebow is… especially since he hasn’t had a real chance yet. He had 3 games last year and did pretty well for a horrible TEAM with no Coach.

Certainly not beating the Bears. And probably not Detroit or Buffalo either.

Hasn’t Orton had two career years in Denver? How has he reached his potential exactly?

Tebow has more potential and is a better worker/leader than Kyle Orton will ever be.

There’s that potential word again. Tebow also has the potential to flop. What makes someone a better leader/worker? I think that’s an insult not only to Orton, but to many NFL players out there. If Tebow was such a great worker, then why hasn’t he closed the gap? Leaders don’t have to be rah rah guys and no leader I know was ever a 3rd stringer.

Wrong question. What has Tebow done to prove that he is better than Orton? Orton has NOTHING to prove to Tebow.

You can’t expect him to learn more and grow more as a QB if you don’t play him in real games.

You can’t? See Rogers, Aaron. See Rivers, Phillip. See Schaub, Matt.

Three examples right there.

@Captainslapnuts
So because we don’t like going 8-8 and 4-12, and we are aware that Tebow’s ceiling could be much higher than Kyle Orton’s that makes us a Tebow fan instead of a Broncos fan?
I’ve been a Broncos fan my whole life. Been through the ups and downs.
I recall a great QB in Denver that struggled his first year and now is the King of the town.
If you REALLY think that Kyle Orton is the answer for Denver to get back winning superbowls then you are sadly mistaken. Kyle Orton has reached his potential and has shown what he’s all about.
He’s all about choking in the game when it really matters. He’s all about throwing for hundreds in a game and putting a whole 7 points on the board.
Tebow has more potential and is a better worker/leader than Kyle Orton will ever be.
So don’t go around saying you are a better Denver Broncos fans than others just because you like a mediocre QB for your team.
We have to see what Tebow can do, get rid of Orton. And I can guarantee you we will never say “Oh we should have never gotten rid of that Orton guy… he was really something special.”
TEBOW TIME

Kyle Orton is simply not the long term answer at QB for the Denver Broncos. EFX knows that. What they don’t know (nor does anybody else, frankly) is whether or not Tim Tebow is the answer. Part of me thinks that Timmy could use another season on the bench, and that Kyle should start because he definitely gives them the best chance to win. However, another part of me thinks the Broncos aren’t going to be very good this year, regardless of who plays QB, so might as well get Tebow out there and see what he can do so as to make the decision easier for next year (when Orton certainly will not be here).

I also have them beating the Jets, as they almost did last year if it weren’t for a bogus PI call.

I think you, as a fan jjbadd, will take Orton not being a franchise QB if he is the QB for the Broncos in the playoffs.

This notion that Tebow is the only person alive who has heart is insulting to 99% of the football players.

I just love how some Donkey fans would rather smoke tree than actually know a thing or two about the game.

They’ll finish anywhere between 8-8 and 11-5.

I just love how Bronco fans would rather just eat this season to hope that a QB like Luck pans out than try and have a winning season.

Logic falls flat in Denver I guess.

Almost comebacks.

Check your facts first, Tebow drone.
