Tim Tebow is better than Mark Sanchez, at least if you believe the ballots submitted by NFL players for NFL Network’s Top 100 show.

Tebow came in at No. 95 on the Top 100 list, as revealed by NFL Network over the weekend. Only players 91-100 have been revealed so far, but Sanchez will not make the list at all, as noted by the New York Daily News.

It’s probably safe to say that Tebow will be the only backup quarterback on the list. He said he’s just honored that some of his fellow players voted for him.

“It truly is an honor for me to be on this list, because there are so many great players in the NFL,” Tebow said on NFL Network. “And for just a few of them to respect me enough to put me on this list, it really means a lot.”

Eli Manning, who recently proclaimed himself New York’s third most talked about quarterback, did not make the Top 100 last year, but NFL Network has confirmed that he is on this year’s list.
